Blast Plates for our transmission. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Who actually have experience in this? I have tired to google and ask for a second option does this really work? & if it does maybe create one for our platform.

Granted this was design for the WRX 5SP. But our transmission is not the strongest.

Here is the blah blah from the thread. http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show....php?t=2341424

"Moore Performance & Race Parts is proud to offer the 5 MT Subaru owner an option to finally strengthen their transmission with a well engineered, attractive looking package that is designed to increase rigidity while providing many years of service in all conditions!

The Moore Performance & Race Parts "Blast Plates" are heavy duty steel, tig welded and are finished with a layer of brilliant black powdercoat. The package also includes high strength (tubular) aluminum spacers and grade 10.9 hardware.

We are currently finishing up the production versions of our Blast Plates and were ready to start taking orders! On one of our higher HP test cars we coupled a set of prototype blast plates to our (soon to be released) 5 mt transmission and we were able to safely harness almost 400wtq and over 500whp on a local Mustang dyno, followed by many miles of hard driving!

The Blast Plates are a perfect upgrade for any 5 speed manual transmission from stock horsepower levels to over 500+ horsepower! Shown below is a 3d image of the production item and actual product photos are soon to follow. Please feel free to shoot us any questions that you might have have and custom powdercoating is available for an additional cost.""

Pointless. The WRX uses a split case transmission design (because the front diff is housed in it), we don't have this issue.

I don't get it.

I don't really think case flex is an issue in our tranny. Meaning - it probably does flex but removing the flex won't save anything and might even make wear/engagement worse. Just my opinion, though.
