I got Welp... Here was the line up...


Got a PERFECT fawking launch on this guy in the Mustang (v8) Hooked up perfectly... perfect bang from 1st to 2nd...


then when I went to put it into 3rd all I could hear was GKHGKHGGHHGHGKGKKKGKKKKCKKCHHCKKCKCKKCKKCKCCHHHHHK
I hardly ever miss a gear and knew it wasn't me just grinding the fawk out of it. I eased into 4th gear.. limped around the back lane and took the car out for a drive YEP 3rd gear is gone. Bye bye... c ya later- peace out gone.

So I drove the bucket to the Nissan dealership that's about a mile from the track, and dropped it off. Thank god I know them there and they're replacing the transmission under warranty.

 

lucky you.....under warranty for the win..

 

hell yeah Warrantree ftmfgdw!

 

sucks to hear that you broke it...good to see that the dealership is hooking you up with a new one at no cost to you.

 

Sorry about the bad news. Best wishes on a free transmission.

 

hope they don't find this thread or that you broke it racing......

 

Don't tell me...

You were power-shifting... weren't you?

 

lol granny shiftin, not double clutching like i should. It's a wonder I didn't blow the welds off the intake.
The dealership knows that i was at the track, actually I called the owners son from the track- but since the tranny's all stock and there's no aftermarket clutch they're gonna take care of it for me. Thankfully.. I have REALLY REALLY good friends.

 

Wow, I'm really surprised you broke 3rd gear NA. Really surprised. That sucks but at least you've got the hook up on a new one.

 

A-N-O-T-H-E-R failed MT thread---this must be some kinda record now!!!

'O4 Touring Coupe! FLAWLESS AT!! 13k!!! $2O,5OO!!!! NO feathering!!!!!

 

You wouldn't say that if you knew her lol. That car has prolly seen more passes down the drag strip than 99.9% of the nismos out there.

Haven't been having much luck with your car lately to that dealership replacing it under warranty.

 

Sucks to hear that. Hope you washed off your numbers before taking the car to the dealership, lol

 

If you were making sammiches this would have never happened.

 

And keeping the house clean, and barefoot and pregnant,etc etc etc etc etc etc

 

How many more transmissions must break before the message gets through?

 

 

Wow this is surprising. I thought the tranny could take anything at stock power levels.

Nismo looks sweet!

 

What was the 60ft on the run?

Sucks about the tranny, but it happens. Im on my 4th.

 

The newer ones still have the CD009, yes?

I'm on my 3rd one, but no problems yet. I asked for CD009, but they gave me CD007. It's working fine, though, so no complaints.

 

Racing it or not, if you spent that much money on the Nismo Edition Z, I would hope that they would fix your transmission. Im not saying that they always will, and it worked out that you know them, but seriously, they just should.

+1, what was you 60'?
