tricstar Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 thought I would post up in here where the gearbox related chat is.. I've also put it up in the F/S section.. i'm getting some Billet centre plates cut out with CNC etc for only $600 each, PM me if you are interested, if we get enough interest maybe a group buy could happen.

Hattori Hanzo 69 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 is this based on the OS Giken one? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/420509-gearbox-billet-centre-plate/#findComment-6857728 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tricstar Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 we'll ( turboedsloth or myself ) let you know about the folks once we've fitted and tested them... and Hattori, no they are based off the standard one but are very similar to the OS one, and do exactly the same thing... once we've got it fitted and are happy, I'll put up a link to the engineers website and pic's.. should be in the next couple weeks.

turboedsloth Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Just waiting for cluster bearings to get here ex east then the testing begins. The new centre plate already feels stronger, is a tiny bit heavier. Forks feel lighter, but have a ceramic coating on them Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/420509-gearbox-billet-centre-plate/#findComment-6868659 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshbigt62r Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 They certainly look the goods. It's really not needed unless making 600hp plus from what I'm lead to believe? Nice to have piece of mind of a stiffer stronger box though I'm suppose.
