Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

512hp on 18psi, rich reckons the gearbox will let go if we wind the boost up to where I want it. Still so so much more in this thing. Torque is very interesting.

that awesome Scottie congrats.

Yeah the torque on them gboxes are very destructive.

U gonna get an aftermarket box?

So my day is made. I went for a ride in schrodinger.

so was it and or you alive or dead?

daves 33 just runs standard boxes, 550kw 3L. broken a few boxes (selectors and synchros) but never actually broken a gearset in them.

Is it really 'don't be soft' or just good advice from his tuner Tits?

I know I would rather be informed that the Gbox is most likely to break if pushed further rather than let the tuna go nutz and break it on the dyno

[Ants]

Also Scottie.........time to update build thread mate

its dont be soft.

the 25 gtst box is tough and because it doesnt have 4wd traction the shock loading (ala 6000 and side step the clutch GTR launch) just results in wheel spin rather than damage to the gears unless you are running some seriously sticky rubber.

[MBS206]

Tits is correct. Most people say the r33 gtst box is easily good for 450rwkw.

The issue in them is synchros, which die on standard power. Just be nicer when shifting and itll help save the synchros.

Other wise do as i taught the boys at the nats to do. While stationary, select second, Dial in 7000rpm or just shy of, side step the clutch. Allow smoke to ensue...

I'm happy with how it is for now and will wait to recoup some $$ before I wind the boost up. Not sure which way I want to go with aftermarket box

[MagicMikeZ32]

I have 2 z32 boxes for sale. Buy them as spares

[SCR48]

Feel free to donate them

[sneakey pete]

Lots of box talk in here today

[MagicMikeZ32]

Feel free to donate them

So cheap they are nearly a donation.

No tax receipt, no donation tho

[SCR48]

More than welcome mate, The driving was fine.

lots of looks of surprise on motorists faces

sounds like a nightmare, It will scare small children...I love it

I too thought i was getting more looks than normal.. That bloke on the dirt bike seemed quite interested

[TiTAN]

its a 500kw capable turbo isnt it? at 518hp you arent even at 400kw yet

the number of standard boxes you can get for the cost of building a box means you could break one a year and still be ahead after 7 years (including labour)

Yep, In time mate. i dont have the $$ to cover a broken box at the moment anyway

[Smity42]

a broken box is never good...

[t5iv]

a broken box is never good...

Yours is a standard 25 box right? That thing cops a bit of abuse and torque

[Smity42]

It is. It has seen happier days, but it's doing OK for now.
