old boy wants a new car, im barking up the evo tree and doing some research on which gearbox will be better, h pattern or twin clutch SST

question is, will the SST handle big power in the future??

have people had experiences with producing big horsepower through a semi-automatic (whatever u wanna call it) gearbox???

If you're buying an Evo, clearly you don't care about tactile feedback and "driver response".

SST is quicker. End of story.

People have managed to strengthen up manuals and autos. Considering the SST is manual friction plates with an electrohydraulic actuator, its not that radically different.

The tech is still pretty new and started out in ultra-expensive cars, so not that many people have been working on it. If you want something now, its not going to happen.

The Veyron's dual-clutch transmissions proves that there's nothing limiting in the technology to handle big power, as long as engineers are willing to invest time and money into learning how to work with this new tech.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
