RWD Conversion Complete...one word...AWESOME!!!

Oh in response to oil coolers...honestly it depends... I used a Greddy one that cost well over 4bills a while back but that is useless...just go to any good Tranny shop and tell them you want an oil cooler for you TRANNY and your DIFF..Might cost at the most 1k...That takes care of any tranny or differ problems you might..
But i do have a huge issue... yesturday we looked at a GT2 on the rack and its tranny didnt have the blug on the side like the Turbo does or the AWD system... I dont understand from befor when guys said that a plate was put over the GT2 compared to the X50 tranny... did i read that wrong...
Also about the 5% torque loss.. ITS TOTALLY INCORRECT... Torque is only transfered when there is resistance...For instance anyone dyno'ing their car on a non resistant dyno is getting incorrect numbers...Once the friction to the front is LOSS...the only place to put the applied power is to the rear... Its simple math... because there is a loss of negative 5% power resistance to the front the rear end has an increase of 5% power...

so the rear axles will be fine right?...seems to me if the gearbox can take all those GT700 kits then it can take the 5% that was originally destined for the front wheels...an LSD and some coilovers and you have a "poor mans" GT2
