did it say it isn't 600whp, but the thread title says it is? I am confused, did VRT hack your account?

Topic shouldn't show 600whp until it truly is - red springs or which ever ones go in. Or I'll start a thread stating 10,000whp for my 2-stroke bike since I'm thinking of may be adding jets on there at some future date. IMHO, topic should reflect current state. Fair for one fair for all.

Great work nonetheless.

Sam,

Please don't get me wrong. I don't have a grain of doubt that your shop is the Alpha of all the rest here and will be for a looong while to come. Actually, I always tell people that your shop would be the closest I can imagine of taking a VQ powered car to the Nissan factory in Japan to get work done to it. I just don't want to leave room for others to say since you can get away with it then so can they. Holding you to a higher standard, that's all.

Thank you.


We offer three different levels of automatic transmission upgrades:

Stage 1 is what we call our valve body upgrade.

Stage 2 is our valve body upgrade plus our upgraded torque converter.

Stage 3
is a complete transmission upgrade which will increase the amount of friction plates and steel plates in the input, forward, and hi reverse drums. All these friction plates are high energy clutches designed to withstand very high loads. Some machining work is done to the case and the drums to improve the low reverse and low coast clutches’ load capacity. It also includes a new brake band, in addition to the valve body and the new torque convertor.

The idea behind the level of stages is to allow the customer to upgrade from one stage to the next based on his power needs, so if you get the stage 1 or 2 and you ever decide to go with the Stage 3 all you have to pay is the deference in price. We will have a full right up on the GTM transmissions upgrades soon.
Stay Tuned…

Prices:

Stage 1 Valve Body $847.00

Stage 2 Valve Body + Torque Converter $1,309.00

Stage 3 Full Transmission upgrades $4,692.90

Reason the title was posted to show 600rwhp is because the car will be making that shortly and the dynos will be updated. Unfortunately when you post a thread you CANNOT edit the title that displays on the main page unless you have a moderator do it.

We were just trying to save time by posting it now since it will change shortly anyhow. Sorry if this mis-lead or upset you in anyway.

Awesome work guys!! It's great to see more high HP 5ATs now.

Any plans to run a trans temp gauge? Is it possible to run a trans temp sensor to and monitor temps with the FCon?

Once again, nice build!

Love those 420Z TT badges, but do you make a G42 TT badge too for the G's you build with the stroker kit? If so, got pics?
