White 97 forged GtX28 ep91 build!


Recommended Posts

While everything still apart. I thought why not upgrade or atleast strengthen the gearbox.

And I found nothing besides a heavy price on a dog box . Which many say is not good for street use.

Probably the only answer I've never found on this forum.no solution to a street 300 to 400bhp glanza?

That's it fella, I run 428bhp I don't really have any options although I am going to test a different gearbox in the new year

I keep an eye on your build! Lol let me know what your trying and if it works! Because really how much can you look after a gearbox at that stage after building such a monster but being scared for breaking the g/box. We need a solution!!

And to make things worse here the starlets are so rare! If I break a box it would cost me a fortune to source one from abroad! And for the price of a dog box I can get a small container of starlet box and keep breaking them lol which is stupid. I atleaast thought over the years some one would have come up with something, which can take a good hiding on a high hp stress driven car!

I've not really had enough time to research it but I was thinking of getting the stock gearbox cryogenicly treated to see if that would cope with 400bhp not really sure if its something that would be cost effective to try!

I'm at the point that I just use non lsd boxes for playing and lsd box for track or drag just so I don't damage a good box when I'm playing

You see I could have did that if only I could get another ,but to have something in already which could be used for both purposes would be great. We have no tracks here but would like in future to go put a time on it in s.a tracks.

Yes I have read about this somewhere as well. I will have to see if anyone in s.a side does this.

The whole main problem here is these boxes are just not available which makes it more difficult for me to drive it like i stole it lol.

Hey been long since I've said anything but waiting for some big updates to put on at the moment I need some info .

I purchased arp bolts for the flywheel now I hear you don't get arp flywheel bolts for the 4e. On the bolts it's written arp pro and did not come with any torque info I would like to know what is the torque setting for the bolts if any one has any info on them please do share.

White looks lovely fresh good job! :)

Thanks bud. Really happy with the paint work .did not expect it to be so good.

On the other hand I have a apexi boost gauge 2.5 bar display with warning peak etc..white interface .

Unfortunately did not come with any sort on sensor just long wiring that's it. Any idea where I can source it from .

Or any other alternative boost gauge which maybe can control and display boost and must be damn accurate no dodgy stuff.
