ShepTrans upgraded gearbox R32/33 GTR

[Stixbnr32]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has used/tried the upgraded synchros from the sheptrans catalogue?

they are very big in the EVO and R35 world, I would expect some serious hardware for the RB segment also

Looking at that, they're just using PPG stuff.. so nothing new there.

Why don't you get the PPG stuff yourself and bring it to your trusted gearbox shop to fit?

its more all the synchros im interested in.  Are they ppg as well?

I don't believe ShepTrans sells individual components, they only offer complete rebuild service to avoid warranty issues.  I also believe the $1500 base level rebuild is done with only their own in house parts, the PPG stuff is an optional upgrade.  And yes they are pretty big in the R35 realm, the shop that pulled my engine uses Shep for their 2000hp R35 build.

I am considering sending my gearbox to Shep next year if I cannot find a good used unit.  Will see how that goes.
