Does any of the Turbo R, LPT Brooklands, Arnage R (green and red) or T have shiftable transmissions or are they pure automatic?

thank you

The Arnage R and T have up/down gates, if that's what you mean. I'd guess some of the older cars do too, but I don't know.

If you put it into 2, it will shift up to 3 just before hitting the rev limiter, then change back down as you slow down.
You can replace the ecu with a controller that will give you programable shift points and quality. Also you can have switch/paddle change manual.

It's a regular GM 4L80E, putting it into 3 will lock it out of overdrive on the later Turbo R and the early Arnage. The later Arnage had the GM 6 speed which might have been switchable. I know nothing about these because I have no money to own them smile
