Yarra Valley or Bayswater were my choices as I have heard good things about both. Mine did take a week to get done but I have had no problems so far. $3200 got me trans rebuild,custom servo,strengthened drive plate,2500rpm stally and a trans cooler,all fitted etc.

why do peopel use such high rpm histalls?

I went with the stally coz was trying to get itdown the quater in good times. though I havent raced it as yet. But the high stall is pretty fun, fairly laggy then when it takes up on 22psi boost its hillarious! But thinking of going back to 2800 coz it is a bit of a pain on the open road. Especially driving out to broken hill and back, nearly a 3000 km round trip!

I am having absolute grief with my fully built 4spd so far from a well known workshop, I wished I never had touched it and after spending sh*tloads to get the job done right the first time 6 months later I am still getting nothing but excuses from this transmission builder, oil leaks, slipping, transmission oil smells in the car, even smoke whisking out the back from underneath the car etc.

All this within the space of just under 2000k's, 1700k's of that babying the auto to put some kilometers on it, reason being 1700k's is I ran it in for 1000k's couldnt fit me in so continued to baby it around for another couple weeks till I could get fitted in and adjusted, have done 2-300k's from then, no hard k's yet as of problems and its rooted again im sure of it with the above mentioned problems etc.

Its so bad I am considering selling the car either as one or in pieces and returning it to stock and going 2J power, dont get me wrong the car hauls ass but I want reliability and I payed for that in full and are getting nothing but severe f*ck arounds.

I will be ringing this week to see whats the go once again, if nothing but excuses I will be asking for a full refund of the transmission and selling the car.

Power is 360 rwkw 16psi, im from melbourne and I would never recommend this so called reputable transmission builder to anyone ever not even for a f*cking service, I mean 6 months for a transmission is f*cking ridiculous to start with regardless of type of vehicle.

Trust me when I say I payed good money its very close the the 5k mark drive in drive out job.

If the sh*t hits the fan and they play funny buggers I will name names and give the absolute full rundown on the whole situation.

Why cant he name the business here, if he got a not so good workmanship from this company surely he is allowed to name the shop as to stop other fellow members getting ripped off.

Sounds like I may know who it is considering the rip off 5k auto, but if u can pm me the company id really like to know who it is.

Its also sad to hear that he might be putting the car up for sale all because of a costly bad experience.

Name and shame em if u dont I will
