Awesome. Keep me posted.
You can spend about 2500 for a 1st to 2nd dog engagment gear set. Drag cartel sells them and there is a group buy going on for frana to make another batch. His are about 2k. I plan on getting a set sooner or later when budget permits. I understand you can get 5 stock trans for the price of a forged gearset but I don't know about you, I don't feel like ripping my trans out all the time to replace gears as they break.Quote:

Petefromthestreets!!!! That is what I'm talking about! I'd rather take it up the ass once with gear set than to be switching out 5-6 times which really would be more like the life of owning car.
I was at the strip for first time. I was at once hooked. The track is so grippy! I guess that is why so many cars break.
I ran a mid 11 second quarter mile. I know had I got the launch right and shifted quicker I could easily break in to a solid 10 second quarter.
One of the guys broke his car, he was running a stock diff. He asked me if I still had my stock one. I told him "Yes, but why...?" Some people like wasting time doing the same thing. Isn't that the definition of crazy? Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results?
About my track time...did it on my ZRX1200.
I busted my second again last week with only 2300 miles on it so i am bitin the bullet and buying ppg 1-2 helical cut gears....id of liked the straight cut but they were more expensive and i didnt wanna hear the noise of em lol.
I remember ppg used to sell 1-4 for k series but on the site it is gone. Let me know what yall find out about the gears. I rather have factory synchros and run some decent strength 1-4.
I'll be going in for 1-2 dog gears from ppg or frana sometime next year. Dont have it in the budget this year already overspent that by a bit on the new motor

Yea man. Plus for the avearge driver or build, I wouldn't fork out money for a PPG gearset either. But when you race your car every weekend it's different. I want to win races and in order to do that I need parts that will hold what I can throw at them. Obviously stock gears only hold but so long.Quote:

Not saying I wouldn't go that route at all. First time I break it I'll be going that route as well. What's the point of building and having a major weak link? If trans breaks now car will see a lot of garage time. That's for sure. :beer:
