I have big plans for the car and need to know if anyone has some good ideas for a box, it is driven daily to and from work but my goal is a 10 sec quarter so auto is probably the way but need to know if you guys have any good ideas.cheers matt Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/20871-new-gearbox/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was either too expensive or not possible to beef up the 4 speed auto to cope with the level of power required to run 10 sec 1/4 mile. Not sure about the new 6 speed auto though, it's too new for anyone to have done much research on yet.

Posted 22/10/05 06:13 PM Share Posted 22/10/05 06:13 PM I'm still running the Ford 4 speed in mine. I have 385rwkw's when racing and run mid 10's and the box is holding up well. I've done well over 150 passes with most in the 10's and 11's. It's been modified by Kewish in Dandenong and its great on the street as a daily driver. Renata (my wife) takes the kids to school in it some times. You don't need to go to outlandish to run 10's. If your after 9's then you definately need something similar to what Adam has.Geea.
