Reply to "Who has this Transaxle?"

To answer Eric's questions regarding "drivability on the freeway and in the canyons" with a 3.11/1.93/1.22/.82 transaxle (3.88:1 R/P) and either a 2110 or 2332:

Drivability on the freeway:

  • 2332: The gearing will be close to perfect.
  • 2110: The gearing will seem a touch long, but you'll still probably like it.


Drivability in the canyons:

  • 2332: You'll spend a lot of time in 3rd and 2nd, and not be comfortable in either, unless you are OK with hearing that engine really scream.
  • 2110: You'll wonder why you went with these gears.


This assumes you drive about 75- 80 mph on the freeway, and are interested in hammering in the canyons, rather than cruising. I have gearing that is really, really close to this (but achieved differently), and I've done all of these things with both a 2110 and a 2332.

5 speeds are not overrated. I'm a motor guy, and I'd recommend a milder engine (2110) and a 5 speed.

Your mileage may vary. You do you.
