Justin does yours have synchros?

Nope... dog box baby-

It's so easy to drive my GF drives it to the shops... It's only the R3C she has a little truble with... ha ha ha Hell she drives it harder on the street than I do!

Best box.... hollinger/OS 88

Good box for the money- PPG Helical set... I have one, it's brilliant.

A fellow member on here has possibly offered me there PPG staight cut gearbox. Im seriously considering it!!!

hay mate

do u have the street spec gear set or the drag spec gear set??

the drag one should definately hold that sort of power.

(i hope so anyways coz i wanna get one )

What is the differences in spec?? I know mine is 1-5 gearset os giken!

Got Car up on stands today and removed drain plug and dohh a gear tooth, cant wait to see inside!! :D

never ever heard of drag spec os boxes. from everything ive ever read they only make 1-3 or 1-5 gear sets that are meant to be rated to 800hp

800hp my ass my car at the time would have only been putting out 580rwhp.

sweet set up mate, did u ever quater it??

Nope not yet. I wanted to get the boost controller setup properly first and run some good boost with e85 and do a quarter in it. It just didn't quite get there.

I'm hoping for a good time. would be good to dip into the nines. Would be really happy with that.

Is the box new, who assembled it and how did it break?

I broke my PPG and a couple of axles but have failed yet to break the OS.

The box was second hand, i dunno who assembled it but it was nice and quite no noise and shift smoothly between gears.

I just clutch it in second launch it pretty hard while rolling and then just up shifted to third and then just heaps of rattling and banging noise.

I dropped the oil the other day and abit of helical tooth came out and the mag plug.

Justa quick question for all the gearbox gurus.

How often does a straight cut gearbox require inspections/overhauls?? :)

Also which do you guys think is stronger HKS 6 Speed dog box or a PPG 5 Speed Dog box??? :(

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
