1st 2nd and 3rd (3rd mostly if your a street racer) go fast on these trany's

i doubt you'll see 11's more than a few times b4 ur trany goes bye bye... unless your lucky and get one of hte magic ones

Exactly what I was going to say. I heard that is what they did back in the day.

uhhhh...at moroso he was replacing a tranny every run in 2001...he was pretty good at replacing a tranny in 20 mins though watching him ...start the car and be back at it for another run ...with 5 spares or so in the trailer.

A freind of mine ran the original stock 140,000 mile engine/trans combo in his '90 GSX for a few years,at the track for almost every T&T (he literally had over 100 time slips) and lots of street abuse. The car progressed from low 12's to 11.60s @123.

That was the engine and trans that could. He never broke the trans. He ended up killing the motor (driver error) experimenting with nitrous,and ended up parting the car. Someone bought the trans for their stock car,and the last I heard its still going...

Driving style has a lot to do with trannys lasting.
