im with this guy, but obviously gt trans blow dick

im not but hurt, but you made a statement bashing something and did not give any reasoning behind it. pretty much it did not help the topic in any way. so there fore you were just bashing, and with no reason.


ive had an n/a grand prix before. i could get both wheels to light up, yea if i turned a little bit while doing it, it would slip to one wheel, but my gtp will do that now. some times it does not spin both tires at the track. parker (tdc) had the TEP trans and at the track he was still spining one wheel half the time.

lots of people have good luck with gt trans.

im just saying if your gonna come in bashing them like you were, why not give some reasons why they suck??? if not your just bashing, and yea im gonna rag you for that

yes

i didn't like my gt trans, it blew cock hole. 1 wheel peel, torque steer, to me it was garbage.

my tep, i know its a built trans but, i noticed a huge improvement with the HD diff, i know its not an lsd diff but lots of improvement.




edit: i deleted my last post.

here is my old gt trans at work with mods in sig (in car passenger view on a street outside a house)



yeah that was 1 wheel the entire time, launch at almost 2,500k

ill get a video of my new trans now, just so you can see

well yours sucked

nah that would suck tho, cant go no where like that.

but at the same time plenty of people have had good luck with the gt trans, including myself.

i dont mind if you hate it, but give some info about it

i would hope so!! thats alot of money for them not too


i could spin both with my gt trans tho....

Torque steer? Really? That's a drawback to ANY FWD with power. The HD diff isn't going to make the wheels spin any more than the nonHD... This makes no sense whatsoever. Sounds like you had a junk high mileage trans and are trying to say that they blow balls because of ignorance? que?

P.S. that vid doesn't help your case whatsoever. I saw lights and a car bouncing off the limiter

This guy is ASE certified fo sho.

Lmfao!

I know you cant see much but, at the end of that 1st video i had bits of tire caked on the passenger side wheel well, and the drivers side was perfectly clean.

I stumbled upon an old video, all the same mods in sig just with the old gt trans (notice the steering wheel ). The launch starts at 1:05



This next one was taken tonight on the same road and same rpm, and roughly the same temp(holding the steering wheel with my 2 fingers and thumb )

in the 2nd video it bogged because, i was at wot and didn't let off and being my car doesn't have enough power to spin through 2nd gear, it bogged

a little tire smoke came off of both wheels

That's like my newly installed TEP run...I went WOT for a couple seconds...then left out of it...I had a piss load of comments asking me why it was so slow
