Need for aftermarket tranny

Well all i have to say is our trannys really suck. The third gear is so weak. I just destroyed my 3rd tranny(626 tranny) luckily i have a fourth sittin at home which is over 2 1/2 hrs away. I know it broke from the abuse (power shifting..Cant ressist chriping tires) but there's gotta be something i can do to make these gears stronger. This is the 2nd third gear i have shattered from power shifting. I know I know you are all gonna say stop power shifting but its so damn tempting ...especially when your racing. With the old probe tranny i was chirping 4th gear. Well anywayz just wanted to see if there are any aftermarket tranny's that can hold up. I was thinking CZT earlier but he is no longer building those tranny's.

I'm about to install my 3rd tranny to and so far one had no 3rd or 5th and now this one something's actually broken inside so I have no 1st or 2nd.

I have a mtx tranny from a 92 MX3 GS. I think thats the same as your tranny. It can be at your door for 200. Let me know if your interested. And if your wondering about my seller rating I am more often on mx-3.com. Go on there and check the seller feedback on the forum. I should be about 5 down. AIM: Projekmx3 or Piranhapro@chartermi.net

Sorry but ignorance like this pisses me off. Why beat the shit out of your poor car? It's dumb ass kids like you that owned the 95pgt that I own now before me and that had no idea what they were doing with cars.

Want to not have to worry about 3rd? Stop driving like an ass.

yeah um....it just doesn't make sense that you are beating your car so badly.... you could drive your car a lot smoother and less harsh and still faster than the way you beat up on it now. It truly makes no logical sense....

You are obviously doing something wrong, I still have my OEM trans and have ran a SC with about 230-250whp for 1 1/2 years with absolutely no problems. Even withthat much HP I could not chirp third gear.

Power shifting i so addictive ...the rpm's barely drop and it seems my car just lunges forward after every shift. The is such a big difference from regular shifting compared to power shifting. I never miss a gear when i power shift and don't think i have ever grinded a gear during power shifting ....but it is quitre stressful on our weak trannies. I'm try to do minimal power shifting on this tranny. The funny thing is none of my tranny's go when i'm power shifting they go sometime after. My last tranny i was going to mcdonalds driving nice and easy when the 3rd gear just gave out and fell apart.

Unhappy

ur chirping in 4th cause you have bad tires, not cause you're pushing that much power through your tranny. And yes i agree with you, we need aftermarket trannies. You guys that are saying be easier on ur car, well ur just pansies. I was installing czt's hi-hp tranny kit today, which is supposed to protect the third gear goin alot better according to rob, but neways its kind of a pain to get the new dif in. Its too big for the case and requires shaving (which rob told me about beforehand neway). But one part of the case that was scraping was so incredibly thin ( the rest of it is thick as anything) and while i as grinding it down (very moderately as well, i test fitted the dif over 20 times shaving as little as possible) i went through the case and have a hole the size of a nickle in my case. Looking at the area, it was practically the width of a couple peices of paper. Our trannies are a joke.

Actually this tires are pretty decent ......wtih the 626 tranny i was chirping third pretty damn loud with 18" wheels with grade "A" traction tires. But the CZT tranny internals sound like a real pain in the *** to install. Does cryotreating the gears work well?

lol yeah cuz luis aint pushing no power, I can roll the tires in 3rd in his car with 18's and sticky tires.
Whoever said learn to drive, ur a moron, half the time when his car is being beat on I'm driving, and I would think of myself as a pretty good driver LOL

Fact is these trannys suck, me and luis are starting to make a tranny graveyard haha. Someone has to make something.

Lui we can pull the tranny from our other probe and see how long that one last for right now.

lol @ calling our transmissions weak because they blow up when you powershift. Wow. That's like saying "our engines are a piece of shit because they blow up when fed a 200 shot of nitrous What a piece of JUNK!"
