Here's what happened to my 3rd gear. Soon as I heard the clak clak I towed it to the shop to prevent any more damage. Luckily the pieces didn't venture too far.

Is your engine already strenghtend? Rods and so on? How much torque?
I have seen bend stock rods at 850nm, so the transmission should hold more.
How much? anyone knows?

On which RPM? I guess the critical RPM range for the stock rods is the same for the transmission.

really? strange. i spoke with matt years ago when i needed work done and i seem to recall that they built boxes but you'd have to r&r and ship to to them and they;d rebuild with the housing etc.. it's a been a long while since i spoke with about 4 known pros before entrusting the work to my "local" shop. you could well be right of course, perhaps they only sell the parts now(?).

in either event, if the guy matt @ gtgears is as giving of his time as he was 7+years ago? then its definitely worth reaching out, especially if someone is seeking a "built" box, as opposed to simply oem replacement parts. same with roger at ca motorsports.
