I think im more suited to a manual with a good clutch... Yeah I hear ya skidz. I have had a BA xr6, BF Typhoon, SS Thunder 6ltr and now the BA MK2 XR6T. All have been manuals. Work wagon is an auto, just can't do an auto in my toy cars. I guess I don't like being told what gear to be in. Hahahaha. I know the zf is a gun box but I like to be in control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few guys (not many) come on here just wanting to know what the forum members can do for them (wanting answers to questions) but when its the other way around they offer nothing. Knowing that this trans tune has busted shafts could go some way in knowing what trans tables are the problem. Could benefit forum members. But yeh, not saying you are that bloke but some just take, take take but give nothing back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His old one probably has 50's or something stupid in the pressure tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you need to pull tune car not working On 17/12/2016 at 6:04 PM, JETURBO said: The ZF can't handle kickdown WOT shifts with lifted power, ALL ZF builders will not warrant failure from doing Kickdown abuse even with $2000 billet input shafts... get smart and select a gear before laying into it buddy a correctly built & TUNED zf can handle big big power WOT upshifts but not all ZF tunes are equal !!! Not sure if selecting a gear helps when it has done a shaft that way to buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puffwagon Trust me bro... Gold Donating Members 16,054 Member For: 9y 11m 16d Gender: Male Location: South Australia Posted 19/12/16 12:45 AM Share Posted 19/12/16 12:45 AM @JETURBO I know you only just got your L's last week but how many cars have you seen at 400rwkw break shafts compared to not break shafts by rolling into it? Also didn't you retune a stock zf car a couple of months ago to over 500rwkw that didn't break, even at the drags? So far we can see that it broke one shaft attempting to launch with 400rwhp. Based on the above comment it has broken at least one shaft by rolling into it with 528rwhp or 390 odd rwkw. The other 2 breakages haven't been described yet but the phrase "kickdown" had been bandied about numerous times in this thread. Common sense is telling me that whilst this car may be running an inappropriate tune it is also being driven unreasonably hard. Maybe it's t400 time?

I am sure the ZF 6 can now be built to cop abuse. Maybe its best I stick with manual. Just gotta luv side stepping the clutch in 3rd for instant smoke. Just not the same with an auto.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
