Yeah old mate from Dandenong. 6r80 input, 1000hp exedy clutches, billet intermediate shaft, modded converter for 3200 stall or so, deep pan etc.

The way I figure it, if I can make a stock trans live for as long as I did with the power I made, one of old mates rebuilds will keep up.

I think it's more of a case of others overcharging due to customer naivety. I was quoted 10k from other Adelaide shops and that wasn't including the billet intermediate or the converter. There is only a few grand worth of parts in a build like that and it only takes a day to get a stock ZF and transform it into the "ZFR80".

A few grand worth of parts? Cryod/hardnered gear set is $2k, add another $2k for frictions, seals, bearings etc. And that's without the 6R80 pump and converter modifications. My dealings with that mob in Dandenong have been less than satisfactory, luckily I got my money back.

$1200 for clutches, seals and bushings. $1200 for the 6r80 front parts. That sounds like a few grand worth of parts to me ;)

 

If you wanna add the converter that's $600ish to modify.
