if u read on he claims to be sponsered by zoom auto imports lol

hmm last i checked isn't a straight cut gears different to a dogbox??

Hmm me so bored.

[IanB]

Just went for midnight nebo run...

Hit a possum. No dammage. Feel bad tho. I hooked it right away and went back, but there was no sign of it on the road either so it lived long enough at least to get off the road...

Buggah.

[Silver_R34_GT-T]

Man thats sucks, i flatterened two possums having sex in teh road aobut 2 years ago in old car, next mring when i drove past, there was fur and guts all over road

[IanB]

Road was slightly wet, I suspect thats why it was plodding along it...

The thing panicked, it went right, it would of got away into the other lane, then changed direction left... I stood on the breaks with everything I had, ABS kicked in but wasnt enough, wet roads + shitty break rotors...

Theres no sign of any impact on the car however and it ran off. My cars at stock height, it is within the relms of possibility that I went right over the top of it.

Eddie is a loser!!!!!

[lilmike86]

quit complaining, bang her once more, then fire her

no, i dont think i could bring my self to do it. plus she was really crap!

euck. I hate smokers. Espically having to kiss them, they allways taste of ash.

i tried everything to get rid of the bad taste. i even tried washing my mouth out with coke, that really burns!

oooooooooooooo so u ended up banging the horny office chick hey mikey

fire the bitch, simple as that

thinking bout it, but prob just move her out of my office. easier to explain to my boss. bit better than me trying to explain to him why i fired her.

Boss: "why did you fire her michael?"

Me: "she was crap in bed and things were awkward "

i'm sure that'll go down well

hmm last i checked isn't a straight cut gears different to a dogbox??

yes and no. a dogbox uses all straight cut gears in a dog engagement (not too sure on specifics) but you can also use straight cut gears in a normal box for extra strength.

yeah exactly i reckon everyone should spam his thread on scc, just to make an arse outta him. bcoz ppl on there obviously dont know him to well.

Straight cut gears means that the gears themselves are cut at 90 degrees, ie the teeth aren't cut on an angle. Dodgy ASCII pic here:

Angle cut gears are quieter and wear better too I believe, but won't cope with quite the same outright power as straight-cuts, particularly on very hard gearchanges (the whole gear face contacts at the same time).

A "dog box" refers to the gears having dog engagement, which generally means no synchros to wear out. Hardcore dog boxes are incredibly strong but without synchros you have to rev match, and unless you are flogging the car, they are a pain in the arse. Just to be pedantic, most manual gearboxes actually use dog engagement, but the synchros line the dog teeth up and make sure they're spinning at the same speed for a smooth gearchange. Calling something a "dog box" usually just means the synchros aren't there and that the dogs themselves are the only method of meshing the gears. FYI when you miss a gear and hear that horrible crunching sound, it's not the gear teeth grinding (they are in constant contact with each other), it's actually the dog teeth. If the synchros aren't doing their job or you've changed gears too quickly for them, the dogs will be spinning at different speeds and will grind.

Right, mechanics lesson over, time to go to work lol

Angle cut gears

they're called helical cut marc, becuase they actually curve round. you can also have a dog box with helical cut gears as well, just not as strong.

[shanef]

they also cost a fark load, and need to be rebuilt fairly regularily. so for a street car, u'd be better of going with the os giken gears and some new r33 synchro's

mornin peeps

[shanef]

morning ladies

i got flamin soaked walking to work from the station!

[lilmike86]

still costly though, but much easier to drive. a better option i heard about was cryo-treating your gearbox. they basically freeze the components in i think its liquid oxygen. this causes the molecules (getting into physics now) to move closer together and form tighter bonds, thus strengthening the parts. best part of all, is that it will cost you less than 1k to do your entire gearbox only catch is the place is down in melbourne

[shanef]

yeah but when u harden something, it becomes more brittle.
