needed abusive drivers to test a new dogbox trans
 

Here's the deal peeps, as some of you know I am always working on some new product for this platform. And this time it's a complete dogbox kit for your factory trans. By sometime in Feb 2017 production will start and I should have 3 kits in hand to test. After the testing phase I will offer a group buy one time then they will be retailed by a few selected business here in the states.

Now the three kits coming in Feb. will be discounted as they are testing units and I will need input from the testers on performance and updates such as new ratios you would like. The group buy will be for 20 sets and will have a slight price increase. After that you will have to work with the companies selling them to get a discount if they will do it.

I can not release the manufacture's name until full production starts but I can tell you they make full sequential and dogbox transmissions for high end cars and have been around awhile with a stellar rep.


Let me know what you think and if you are interested I will provide more info as I get it.

Is there a horsepower requirement? Is track usage preferred? Right off the bat I thought of Element Tuning; not because they're abusive, but because they're pushing a lot of power and go through 4th gear somewhat frequently during time attack. Phil hasn't been on the forum for a month, but it may be worth reaching out to him for a true heavy duty endurance test.

So, you are looking for abusive drivers ....... ??

If you mean abusive to transmissions ....... this forum is full of them......:D

Seriously, good luck with your venture ..... :thumbsup:

Sounds like you're volunteering your car for me to drive :)

I do need to speak with you concerning a future build message me your contact info plz.

I have been looking for transmission options in this car and im only a stone throw away from san antonio.

We're not that far from you, have an instrumented, caged car with a customer that loves development, and are located at a test track. Hit us up if you want to talk.

(Edit: BRZ Owner/driver's other track car is a 700whp Viper GTS w/ Emco sequential.)

I'm in SA every other weekend, and track about once a month. Only 205whp at the moment. In for info, at least.

What company are you yourself with?

Not interested in being the test mule (my car isnt even FI, altho it spends a lot of time at the track), but very much interested in the finished product and that group buy. The tranny is the only thing still acting up in my car right now.

I'm a privateer and am not in a business. I am sponsored by multiple companies but they are not part of this as of now. There is nothing in this for me except being one of the first to get the products and test them. I am paying the same as the other 2 who are chosen.

Someone just give us a god damn tremec t56 with a damn bell housing, drive shaft, offset shifter kit already! This is over thought and under funded already :(
