Fair enough.

 

In for results. could be something i might need in the future.

 

6-8 Months that's perfect, just in time for next income tax.....lol

 

This... And thanks for all your help USMC I appreciate the support.

Hopefully the interest keeps coming in!

Haha nice. I like just got mine back

 

This is an E-mail I just got today from John... Enjoy

It is apart and the gears dimensions have been sent to the 2 gear manufactures we work with to get pricing quotes on it. in my opinion the gears are just entirely too weak for what you are putting through them. A simple gear upgrade should be a huge strength improvement by itself.

Once we get the quotes we will have the gear pitch analyzed to see how much stronger we can make them. We may need to alter the ratios slightly.

Thanks
John

 

Question:

he does know that the trans you sent him, and the trans in the LNF have different ratios / probably gear strengths in them?

Excited, dunno if I would want a shorter gear tho...

 

Same ratio, final drive is tbe different from the lsj.
Or I read something backwards....

 

Just as Omni said, the gear ratios are the same, it is the final drive that is different.

But I agree on the shorter gears thing... nooooot for me. I'm a highway roller... I like/want long gears.

 

long gears for kali freeways =p
i dont want to be like an evo
revin at 5k at 80mph ^_^

 

My GTI is like 3300rpm at 75mph. 2.8L with large exhaust ports = Friggin loud

 

I don't know which way he would go with the ratios. But 5th could stay the same I do believe.

 

i love our long gears...especially on the drag! being able to pushed 3rd as hard as i can is awesome! always pull on people cuz they are shifting constantly!

 

Longer 1st gear for sure.

1st gear is all but useless in its current state. Nothing like being able to get 60 times down without going all out slicks.

 

I agree..

 

I don't drag, but I TOTALLY agree first gear is way to low. It sucks for DD and it sucks autocrossing. I can't remember 1st gears top speed, but its got to be 30 or less I am guessing.

 

ya i like our "longer gears" too. Third is a lot of fun, especially against a 6spd car, cuz while im pulling him, he has to shift to 4th, and then its really game over hah. Im talkin to you 350z's

 

I'll see what I can do. The 60 times would def profit from this

 

Hell i would pay extra for a good 6 speed

 

This.. pretty much my feelings as well...

 

You don't even wanna know the price difference between the two

 

the quaife 6 speed gears are like +4g to the total build price

 

Im down for longer gears that would be perfect. I hope he takes his time to do it right but, damn do I want this to be done in like a month.

 

Quaife has had a 6-Speed conversion out for the F35 for many years now...

 

So, just pie in the sky dreaming here...

Say this product is ready to go and I order one...

1. would sending my tranny back as a core be necessary? before receiving new tranny? after?
2. are there possible options to request? like if my current tranny has no LSD, can I buy the new one with an LSD?
3. isn't this an ideal time to upgrade the clutch? could I send a clutch, or request one, and have it all built together?

Again, not actually requesting these things, just asking if they're feasible/possible.

 

Quaifes a bunch of Idiots. Their **** is way over priced and made for the the high bucks market. I dont even know why they wasted their time on the F35.
