If you’re running an old tune talk to your tuner and ask him to update the trans setting in your tune. I’m sure most would do that for a small fee which is well worth it.

turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 21y 11m 2d Gender: Male Posted 02/06/10 04:02 AM Share Posted 02/06/10 04:02 AM I take your point, but I would say the average standard of a tradesman of today is pretty low. So I find that alot cant be trusted so you end up having to redo the job yourself or you do the job yourself when its got to be done properly.Dont have so little faith in your forum members. There are many very smart blokes around. With the right amount of info, many are very capable. I see alot of great work around. Sharing knowledge will do no harm.On the other hand yes there are many "--it for brains" who will get themselves into a mess. But who cares, look after ones who are capable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The genuine is cheap so no point in my opinion.Different Clutch packs have different thickness Plates and different quantities in relationship to the transmission spec so you need to shuffle these to increase the volume in a given clutch. you may also machine down pistons and change end plates and lock rings depending again on what clutch and whats available. These then need to be set to certain heights,Nothing too high tech really and I'm sure many could do it themself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
