    Default Awd + 6g75 = ???

    I've read a few posts on the forums which state that it's a matter of when rather than if an auto 3rd gen with a 6G75 conversion will have transmission issues.

    What about an AWD with a 6G75 conversion, will it be a ticking time bomb or are they more durable?

    I've been driving my supercharged 75 without a cooler around for the past year and a half without any issues. I'm very generous with the pedal too.

    I've had a 6G75 in my TW AWD for about 13 months now and done 20,000km. The odo was 157K when the 75 went in and my auto trans is perfectly happy. It's silky smooth when I baby it and responsive and solid when I'm a lead foot.

    Some people say the same thing about 3rd gen transmissions on unmodified Magnas - that it's a matter of when, not if. I disagree.

    I wouldn't let it put you off a 6G75 conversion.

    Thanks guys.
    Does anyone know how fast a 6G75 AWD 3rd gen is?

    15 flat down the quarter or better. Possible into the mid 14's.

    The 6G75 is also much torquier down low which will help the heavy AWD get moving.

    0-100kmh expect around mid 6 sec easily. Quarter mile 15 flat if you have a towbar and full tank of fuel. I reckon high 14's without all the "ballast" weight. But the 6G75 also makes the AWD much more driveable with the ~80Nm torque gain. Trust me, taking off fast in the wet and feeling that solid acceleration off the line never gets old!

    There's no reason why the INVECSII 5 speed auto wouldn't easily handle the extra grunt, especially with the addition of an inline transmission cooler, external filter & upgraded wave-spring washer.
    I've read somewhere that stock they are rated at something like 500+ NM of torque.
    It's the same auto as used in the Jap spec Lancer Evo GTA.

    The Evo 7 GT-A was derated compared to the manual Evo 7 (only 193Kw and 360Nm are the figures I've found). I've not seen figures for the Evo 9 Estate which used the same box but would be surprised if it wasn't also derated. I very much doubt the boxes are universally good for 500Nm though several people are no doubt pushing that figure (so far without failure), but I am aware of another that did come apart (planetary gear set failure).
