Made 3 passes at the track last night with the broken-non shifter tranny. Those who have heard the car just rolling down the road can attest to how LOUD it is. :(

1st pass ever-pump gas, low boost-Shifting at 8k
2.20-60ft
9.28@71mph- 1/8 mile
14.0@109 -1/4 mile ET

Wow, this thing refuses to shift into anything at 8k. I have to wait until IDLE to go into 3rd! So-I figure I will just short shift 1-3 and hope for good things in 4th.

2nd pass-pump gas, low boost- Shifting 1-3@5k, and winding out 4th. I literally had no more than 5psi until after the 1/8th

2.0 60ft
8.46@96mph 1/8th mile
12.5@123 1/4 mile

Better than I expected considering the circumstances, and ron now owes me $20 :)

Last pass, go with race gas and 30psi for shits and giggles. I meant to do my 5k 1-3 mod, but lined up against GSX and got excited-so I tried to shift at 8k again. :mad:

2.1 60ft
9.24@76mph in the 1/8th
13.7@115mph 1/4


It grinded so much on the 1-2 and 3-4 shot on this pass, I was sure I left the tranny on the track. But-It made it home.


Its insane how bad the tranny is/sounds for it to actually be doing anything at all. I am tempted to put real tranny fluid in it (have whatever 20-50 in it now, all the RX guys havening success with them run MT90 or 80-90) and seeing if it improves, but I should probably just put a new box in there.

I see the potential-because everything works well when its actually in gear:D I literally spend 4-5 second of the run trying ot get it into a gear.

Thats all for now-

I think so. Based on this-It looks like 128-130 on pump gas, and 135-137 on 110. On the stock head-that will make me plenty happy :)

Nice numbers JP. I think we all want to know what this thing will do with a good trans :twisted:

Update-

2k miles later, and the POS still does not shift. It pulls the tires without boost-leave harder than my old colt from 3rd gear- but STILL does not shift. Replaced nearly everything associated with the trans and clutch-trying something new tonight....

Wish me luck. I am about to set this POS on fire!

Update-

New hydrolics-numerous fluid changes, and 3 tranny swaps later- and it still would not shift. :evil:

So-I deceded to toss in a stock PP, and it shifts. This WHOOOLLLEEE freakin time-it was just the clutch.



Cock sucking bullshit.


Im going though my options now- stay tuned for big HP china GT45 highway and dyno pulls in the next few weeks..

ACT 2600

And problems is an understatement. Those who drove the car (some ppl on here as well) can attest- it was the WORST thing EVER. Seriously.

Indescribably bad.
