It's supposed to be one piece, connected where the copper coloring is. It's obviously not one piece anymore.

joshcrz

just wondering if this thread has died out cause its great... ok questions
1. does anyone offer syncro kits (dealer or aftermarket)
2. I'm guessing from what I've read up grades are still not avalible??

sorry if its been talked about b4 haven't been on this fourm in quite a while

SIR_pierre

In addition to being REALLY REALLY expensive. That transmission is purely for race cars. Straight cut gears whine like CRAZY and are not something that you want in a street car.

SIR_pierre

the whining i whould mind at all. but for that price and its only good to 450hp forgeaboutit!



to something else.. what kind of oil do you use? i had the redline shockproof etc etc..

SIR_pierre

actually i just think thats porno for my ears!(maybe just this clip was overkill) the thing is that i want a hardcore racecar and ive heard alot of cars with straight gears and whining LSD and i think its cool.



but oh my.. this clip was extreme! i dont think it would sound that bad

I bet that transmission could handle A LOT more than 450hp. They just don't want to liability of saying that. Same thing with DSS's upgraded half-shafts, I have the level 2s and have A LOT more power than they are "rated" for with no issues whatsoever.

I use redline MT-90. You should not use the shockproof stuff in our trans, it will eventually ruin the synchros. Redline's line of shockproof gear oil is no designed for snychromesh transmissions.

SIR_pierre

hmm...im pretty sure it was called MT90 AND shock proof.. but ill check.

well.. with my luck and if something would happend then Quaife would just say that i have to mutch power. ( i have just ordered a Greddy TT kit)

See post #180.

PAR in Austrailia quoted me an entire new gear set and synchro's for $4200. My contact there is Sam Chalak. Ph: +612 9820 1100.

Also, it is worth noting that they also can make the gear set with standard or custom gear ratios.

I just sent Sam an e-mail asking if we could save any money if we coordinate a group buy on this.

FYI... I ran that Quaife transmission (in 5 speed form) in my 240Z and its fricking wonderful! It will spoil you something awful and make you look like a shifting God. And for those worrying about horsepower ratings, remember, the stock transmissions in the 350Z are rated to 300 ft. lbs. and lots of folks are pushing more then that through them.

SIR_pierre

good. and that the whole set? all gears and synchros?

ttg35fort

iTrader: (2)

Yes, all gears and synchros.

They can even do dog engagement if you would like, but this might be more expensive. Synchros are probably better for street use, though.

MT-90 is not one of redline's shockproof gear oils.

You're not going to have to worry about breaking a trans like that. They always rate them much lower than they can really handle.

Do you know if they use the stock synchro setup or their own proprietary synchro setup?
