When I was a young man I tought myself to drive a manual so I can have more options and drive my dad's vehicles. Well I never went back to a automatic. Manuals are more fun and hands on and now my brain hurts when I drive a automatic.😁 Even switching from a long drive in my D to my daily is even weird because you sit so low. Have fun guys! I hate to think that probably in another 40 years our cars might have to go electric.
I have a manual with a BAE turbo and the cold air intake tube. For a car that is 40 years old, the performance is just fine. Have a guy in the area club with an LS. Not my cup of tea. It's more about the presence than the performance for me. There's always rubber-neckers and people that want to talk and or want a picture. Recently added power steering, which is worth the money IMO.
Awesome video! It was great having Dave in there he’s hilarious, now a proud member of our Las Vegas group. I have a stage 1 automatic and absolutely love it. I’ve been thinking about a stage 2, but I’m going to hold out and go electric. Great video as always! When the track opens Up I’m going to take my automatic and run it against a manual and see what happens.
No wonder the automatics are so slow! The parts were made in Japan...........lol Just kidding! 2nd stage auto for me please. Great video DT! Keep them coming!
Awsome Video! I wanna do cams in my 5-speed and a Stage 2 is definitely a great upgrade for the automatic..One day the Automatic car will be worth more because its unknown how many auto's have been converted to sticks?
Nope - the Autotrans is difficult to rebuild, nearly no parts are existing anymore and when wrecked hard to find someone who will rebuild it. How i know that? Well, i have an Autotrans, i rebuild a second one AND i live in Europe where the Trans comes from. So when it´s hard for ME to get help and support you Americans are doomed. The Autotrans is just a sidenote... no one wants it and no one wil value it higher. Everyone wants "Performance" - me laughing going 210 km/ on the Autobahn and thinking of driving 75 mp/h topspeed is crazy *lol*
@@FRITZI999Well, over here, the transmission is not difficult to rebuild and I've rebuilt automatic transmissions before in my past. Working in a car dealership so wouldn't be that big of a deal for me if I had an automatic. My DeLorean is a Spec-1 5-speed car and a daily driver
Great video. I love my automatic with DeLoreango exhaust. I just love driving automatic plus I m very tall so the little pedals in the manual are a nightmare for me since I cant change the size of my shoes ;-)
Not having driven or ridden in one I cannot say. However adding a supercharger to an automatic DeLorean will probably make a big difference! I know with turbocharged cars it certainly does.

Cool video!
Your car is seriously awesome.
Makes me miss my stage two automatic 😞

Power steering is def on my list

Awesome! Let us know what happens.
@@DeLoreanTECH definitely!
Would love to do a comparison with the stage II Auto with my island twin auto! :)
That would be a great comparison

All the best stuff is made in Japan!
even worse - built in FRANCE !!!

Very few have been converted... The frame is not the same for the automatic cars so its really difficult to do a conversion
@@tonidmc nope - totally disagree - you just need to make an adaptor Plate which is about an inch higer for the stick ... THAT´s it.

How much did you get your delorean for?
Great video. I'm glad you made it.
The automatic sounds much louder than the manuel.
I'll just wait for the electric version
The stage 2 has been around for like 20 years. I remember rumors for a stage 3 like 15 years ago. I wonder why they never completed that project.
Which company do I contact yo do the stage 2 upgrade?
I want one in automatic!
Stock engine definitely sounds A LOT better
Glad for this video! Thanks
You bet!
1:01 Please may we know the name of the Synthwave Track? 13:01
Yes it is Instant Crush by Corbyn Kites
Thank you very much @@DeLoreanTECH!
Fascinating
Fascinating! What's your opinion on Stage III DMC's?
Not having driven or ridden in one I cannot say. However adding a supercharger to an automatic DeLorean will probably make a big difference! I know with turbocharged cars it certainly does.
Manual here,, Carbed,Kjet Delete. No problems
“It *does* have a cold air intake” 😂
They make a big difference!
@@DeLoreanTECH I understand it just hit me funny lol!
Don't need to watch... Manual all day, every day
I need to settle a trivia question. Anyone know the actual top speed of an original stock deloreon?
I want to say about 130
Gtr r35 engine swap can be best
Supercharge it
Once the state passes the smog exemption on 83 and older cars i would love to!!! Stage 3.
