Has anybody experienced one of these firsthand? These are supposedly the crowned jewel of gearboxes for Subarus.

Started to do some research on these but gave up strictly because of the price.

 

helical cut gear dog boxes are the shizzle josh!! no clutch required!! these are the strongest gears made that i know of. for track use only, i heard of a guy who ran it on the street and got less than 12K miles. he said it was loud azz Shiet and just attracted too much attention on the road. but his car was in one lap of america and he regularly rallied his car. i got pics of the forrester sti at the car show. but it doesn't mean nuttin next to your ride. bbs golds and some stickers. stock suspension and everything else. it was black. i got pics, when i get some time i'll load em up.

 

Serious overkill for the street. And I'm all about overkill.

dumb question but you mean you know a guy that had these gears and they only lasted 12,000 miles, geez.........

 

You wanna play, you gotta pay.

 

YES

 

helical cut ?? or straight helical is what you factory gears are so i would say if they were too loud it is straight
go to nabisco and do a search a few guys over there sear by them

 

So what did he grind the dogs by not shifting hard enough? (btw can you bend your linkage or what)

 

So did anyone try this gear box yet? I talked to the guys at gearboxtech.com and they said that they shipped a built tranny to someone in Hawaii. I woder who has it

 

Me wonders as well.

 

Haha.. maybe some guy who has a lot of money but isn't on i-club and ................................................ street races!

 

I get dibs when that donkey crashes!!!

 

ummm guys, i know who it is...but i promise him/her that wouldn't tell......

 

If it's somebody I know then I take back what I posted last.
