Ive a 4efe automatic for a winter runabout. Is the fte auto a fully mechanical box?

It would be nice to have a backup option if the fe unit failed. Also can anyone chart these ratios as it doesnt work in the usual gear ratio calculators

1996 UKDM 4EFE Automatic (A132L)

1st : 2.810
2nd : 1.549
3rd : 1.000
4th : -
5th : -
Reverse : 2.296
Counter gear ratio : 0.945
Differential gear ratio : 3.526

1992-1995 JDM GT Automatic

1st : 3.643
2nd : 2.008
3rd : 1.296
4th : 0.892

Yes mate, the ECU has a lot to do with it from what I can see. All part of the ECT-S system being introduced in 1992. The mk1's had a similar setup to what you have there from what I gather (never had a mk1 auto to play with unfortunately)

Cheers Jay. Decided to leave the auto alone and if all goes well maybe trade up come the spring.
