  1. Hi all Long time no see, been a while since I have been on the forum! Again I find myself in the gearbox conundrum... BA XR6T that makes decent power and gives the BTR gearboxes a hard time. Wondering does anyone have any info/insights/experience with yarra valley automatics yrt482mt transmission? JETFPV has been great and has given me lots of info on his experience with the gearbox in his old car, he has given the gearbox a huge wrap. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had the conversion? I'm surprised I haven't been able to find more cars with it done (instead of c4s or t400s). Cheers
  2. Hey guys, I've knocked up some short films for a Toyota film comp and they pick the top 10 based on views, comments and votes. Could you please go here: http://www.youtube.com/group/cleverfilmcomp and watch: - The Getaway Car - Good Looking, Small & Clever if you have a youtube account please join the group (Top left) and vote and comment on these films! Thanks!
  3. Thanks INFLYT. Protrans are the guys that built the box first time around. Then replaced the planetary gears a couple of weeks after. I will definitely call them to suss out what they think, as they seem like genuine guys. Just wondering what my options are... You can actually see my original thread regarding the rebuild here: http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.ph...c=33674&hl=
  4. I should call them for an up to date quote but when I spoke to them about a year ago I think it was close to the 4500 mark...
  5. My car has been tuned and built by Autotech minus the gearbox. While my motor was getting run in on a sedate tune I took the box elsewhere to get built. I liked the sound of Dominello but were quite exxy compared to places in Melbourne etc. From the moment I picked up the car from the gearbox place it took forever to engage reverse and wasn't quite right shifting in to third, Spiro mentioned the 3rd gear issue aswell. About 2 weeks of driving later gearbox is clunking and goes back to the gearbox place with rooted planetary gears... Spiro has spent a lot of time tuning these cars, and spent a sh*tload of time on mine over the last few years so I'm more than confident with his ability, it's just a shame he doesn't build gearboxes in house! Surely there's some other place in NSW that are decent?
  6. Hey guys, After my last visit to the drags a few months ago and causing some dramas to my auto gearbox, I've had a break from the car and the forums, but now I'm thinking about fixing her so I'm back. I had the box rebuilt by a recommended shop in Sydney, had to go back a couple of times to get it sorted, not sure if I was totally happy with it, and considering the car had done less than 8000ish kms with the box, not too sure if I should be going back. So who's is everyone using and recommending nowadays? By the way I can still drive the car I just can't flat shift into second as it just slips... So probably bands? Cheers
  7. noiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!!!!!
  8. nice, very similar front on hey? except that looks like there's a serious cooler hanging out the front?
  9. I headed out and ran a PB of 11.5 at 125mph but that was with my gearbox slipping and hitting rev limit in 1st and 2nd. Damn rebuilt POS fourspeed! hahaha it's sweet on the street though! Car makes the power to run low 11s and I had a best 60ft time of 1.75 but the box just slipped the whole way through 2nd gear........ not good!
  10. Thanks guys! Chuck it in your random pic thread mate, I'd be stoked We didn't really get any other photos, clouds were coming over... I have a few different styles (and more natural styled) versions but I was looking for an arty edit so I can include the image in my portfolio!
  11. Hey Guys, Did an impromptu photoshoot with one of my best mates beast on the weekend. Let me know what you think of the car and photo!
