If this guy can drop the price for a more realistic price of 1-2k then I hate to hear about gear sets


So why aren't you making these gear sets? No one is forcing anyone to spend the money on gears. If a T-56 is only $3700 + custom fab and bell housing costs then why complain? Just because someone has the money to spend on something they feel they want, and you don't want to spend that money or have the money to spend on it does not make that person a moron. BTW the cost for that PAR set is by far cheaper than the Greddy ones that they released as they cost $12k before install. And it's not a "glass trans" once you have those gears installed, so I would say it was pretty smart. I didn't have to custom fabricate anything or get a custom bell housing, I got to keep everything looking stock and that's what I was looking for. If you want a Chinese gear set, go for it and let me know how that goes. It won't affect the price of the others much if at all because you pay for what you get. And I would still pay for these gears I got.


On a final note: the PAR gear set cost more now than the $4k, that was a special 20% discounted introductory group price that we got.
