Lol, sadly not available with a manual in North America.Hey Toyota.. I present to you the interior of 2018 Car of the year, hint hint.
I know, i'm fighting this auto thing with a passion but everyday I read here its like a loosing battle. I was watching the ZF8 very impressive but that's still a second choice and a tough pill to swallow.Lol, sadly not available with a manual in North America.
But it does come with the ZF 8HP. And it's really good.
I'm with you man. I've never owned an auto car myself, so this one definitely cuts straight to the heart. As sad as it may seem, at least we will always have the aftermarket. Won't be cheap but at least it'll be possible.I know, i'm fighting this auto thing with a passion but everyday I read here its like a loosing battle.

We need a Miracle.
Disconnecting the engine from the wheels would be supremely easy, they would just need to use the same tech they used in my '92 Camry for the cruise control. It's literally a box that pulls on the throttle wire - slightly creepy when the accelerator pedal physically moves itself, but it works. Just pull on the clutch line and you've got a self-disconnecting car.I'd say nearly all auto makers will have automatic only lineups by 2020 (at the latest) unless they spend a ton of money to figure out how to allow the car to take over the manual trans, clutch, etc and not stall the engine when implementing AEB.
Fortunately I'm in Switzerland, we get everything with a manual that's been developed with a manual.Lol, sadly not available with a manual in North America.
Unfortunately I'm in Switzerland, homologating a new drivetrain is going to go for about 30-40kUSD in testing procedures and documentation. Since this is the Supra after all, it might be possible to share with other enthusiasts that want this car with a manual and homologate a conversion kit (which I'm sure will come around).I'm with you man.

That system didn't make it past development stage sadly. Been trying to find out why, but I couldn't find an answer.yeah, you could so add another ABS module on the clutch system. pressure the system, disengage release bearing, done.
maybe this was why toyota did that front drive transmission that shifts itself back to neutral.... makes perfect sense.
PUT THE SAME SYSTEM IN THE A90 YOU MUTTS
Does the isf have a zf8?My ISF is an 8 speed auto with paddle shifters, but 8 is too many as there is a lot of range in the lower gears and believe 6 maybe would have made the car alot more fun...This may have been covered earlier but do we know how many gears the auto Supra will have? 6?
That may be incorrect, apparently bmw and Mazda have it in manual cars.so, at this point there are exactly 4 years to make all cars compatible with AEB. Toyota made TSS standard in 2016 and apparently make AEB standard at the end of 2017.

Right now there are already other cars in the US that have had AEB (did not know this), but they are auto only
AEB is for stopping the car. If the engine stalls, that's a non-issue in my opinion.Yes, it appears they do exist but they stall the car making it a dangerous system.
