Im not to familiar with trannies, but my car will not accelerate in 3rd gear. Does this mean, my synchros or forks are gone? What would be the best option for me at this point? Are the 05 trannies more stout, than the 03's, 04's? How about 07's, do you think they would bolt up.

 

The 03 trans has been prone to failure. Best option is to install the series 9 trans. We can get them in 2 days if you need one shipped out. At the risk of looking like an opportunistic vulture...PM me for pricing.

 

f that.. trany sucks man

 

You should go auto, heard it's better for fast cars

 

already breakin stuff with the sfr hummm...jp man! sorry that it happened. I guess I will have to wait for the ride till she is up and running again.

 

So the tranny broke in your C6 Z06? Did I understand correctly?

 

No he smoked a C6 Zo6 and messed up his tranny doing it.....worth it? Yeah, excuse to get something better

 

sharif can you please PM me info on this ?

 

holy crap sweet jebus

 

What exactly is the car doing when in 3rd? Is it popping out of gear? Just revving up as if in N?

 

heard wrong

 

Just reving like its in neutral

 

Ive had that happen when I stripped a synchro in my other car. Its VERY hard to bend a shift fork, Ive never heard of anybody doing it.

 

Im probably going to go with, what Sharif suggested.

 

My 009 version sucked the first 2000 miles, very clunky, not smooth at all. Now its just as smooth as my 008 version which was butter IMO. Good luck, no powershifting!

 

Where did u buy yours?

 

Few months back when I grenanded the 008 version through a friend who owns a salvage yard. I bought a 009 version with less than 1000 miles out of a wrecked 06' Z. When switching from 008 or older to an 009, make sure you also buy the shifter support brace, they are different on the new ones. I had to modify my old one to work, and it does, but the gears all look slightly further down in the gate. Look up my thread for more info and pics.

 

Do you know if he has another one?

 

PM- gooey tell him I sent you, he can find you one. Request the 009 version with shifter support/assembly!

 

best newb staement i ever heard.....speachless. wish the bravehearts were still here.
