6 speed automatic gear ratios?

Does anyone know the gear ratios of the 2006 Rx-8 6 speed auto?
Would they be the same as the Mx-5's?
How about an axle ratio too.

Thanks.

Post Ratios.....

Sorry, can't help with the gears, but the rear end is the same (4.44) and may not have the LSD.

According to the 2006 spec deck (https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=67529) here are the numbers for the automatic (column 1) and manual (column 2):

1st - 3.358 - 3.760
2nd - 2.060 - 2.269
3rd - 1.404 - 1.645
4th - 1.000 - 1.187
5th - 0.713 - 1.000
6th - 0.582 - 0.843
Reverse - 3.168 - 3.564
Final Drive - 4.300 - 4.444

No, I'm able to bring it up just fine. Pretty sure I got the link from a post you made. Not sure if it's appropriate to post a link to an attachment in a different post. I (or you) can change it if you want.

Adobe Reader is just frickin' slow sometimes. You can delete a lot of the plugins that come default that will help load times. Also, if you save the PDF locally and then open it outside the browser it'll help as well.
