Okay im down to the last step to my engine build "the tranny" so i know a lot of you referred me to Jacks Transmissions. so i was looking at the different stages and prices they offer, so i would like your guys opinion on what stage should i go with... Stage 2.1 $1,499.99 stage 2.3 $1,649.99 stage 3.1 $2,349.99 if any of you can look into the difference in all these stages and tell me which one i should really go for..... the thing i like about all these three stages is that they all have the 4spider dif. so what do you guys think is really the best choice????? save myself some money and go with the 2.1 or just go with a premium 3.1..... or just stick with the mid range stage 2.3 which is going to give me a lil of both worlds.......????????? |

4 spyder ceynder diff is NOT a front lsd. Jack clearly lists whats included in each of his stages on his website. I don't care what tranny you buy at 500+whp it will break. But if its just a toy car, a weekend warrior kinda car then it will probably last you longer. |

If you read whats in the tranny, its not like its some great god. All trans builders USE STOCK MITSU GEARS for all their non dogbox application. In the end its not even the fact that its stock gears that have been loved, its the fact that the gears are helical, and when load is applied the gear stacks want to move in opposite directions. The case being made of aluminum, expands slightly, causing the cogs to not engage face to face, but on edge. Then gears shred. Any of those transmissions will take to drag launching with a 4-spider center diff. A stock one will too. Only great thing about any of these, or any other "built", transmissions is how well they will shift at high RPM. |

you want front LSD or what? Why are you so set on LSD? Are you FWD or something? Or your are trying to make this car turn better. |
