what happened to your third gear?
what's the engine set-up?

If its less than 200tq... Ide imagine its driver/installer error. There isnt a trans that you could get ahold of that would bolt up to our blocks. Your best bet is rebuilding and chryotreating your gears.

its a turbo'd 1st gen
the gears shreded, and blew a hole in the bottom of the bell housing, perhaps i need 2 try running an evo setup

ages ago i was asked to buy some dog gears?? any1 remember those?

There are no transmission upgrades for our cars. I'm running over 400whp and have no issues.

cool over 400whp now
last i saw your figures were a little over 300 on a dyno, - good for you

so do you know about the dog gears?

You might try yanking the gears out and having them shot peened and cryo treated. I don't think anyone has done that yet, might be worth a shot. I think that is what I might do.

Actually someone has. tongue.gif I'll let that person post in here if they want it known.

lol sorry I didnt know... Some people are idiots tho. Theres a place thats located in my town that does chrytreating, and a place that does whats called "microblue" Its basically makes it vertually friction free. Would be a great decision. Its what im having done to my beta 2 trans. Compliments of faithofadragon.
