Twisting input shafts too I hear? I'm also on the hunt for a TII trans. I could just turn the boost down, but that's no fun

Mazda engineers didn't design our cars to handle the power levels many of us like to see out of our power plants...therefore, things tend to break. Fortunately there are aftermarket parts that are designed for such abuse. In your case you'd be better off with a TII tranny, they are pretty much bullet proof aside from the factory diff mount, but once again there are many stronger mounts to replace that

That's so true Anthony. I will go with a TII tranny when I can work it into my budget. Since my wife always says that my car is evil, I decided to take the Decepticon theme up a notch. Think I over did it? HAHAHAHAHA





I just taped of the area around the outside and the inside and then clear coated the area I wanted to stand out. For a little bit of time and tape, I think it turned out alright.

Well I found a t2 drive train for mine. Comes with s5 counterweight and a t2 lightweight flywheel. Starter, driveshaft, trans. Only thing I have to get is a clutch and then its off to motion lab for tuning

Merry Christmas Hope all have a Very Blessed Day. And Lets
take a moment of silence of the fallen E6K Well now time to upgrade.
I fired up the 7 yesterday, Went and filled up the tank, came back and did a little
Showing off for some friends, Rides/Ect an then I pull back in the drive, got out
of the car and start tallkig to some friends. Then out of the Blue the 7 shuts off!!!
I was like what the H@@L!!!THen spent the rest of the day trying to figure out just
what had happend. And to my surprise the ECU was dead. All leads had power
But nothing coming out. Even tried linking up the laptop to run a system cheek,
And was like I there was no ECU there to cheek. Said ( Haltech not found!) So
Now time to go pick up my new MicroTek LT-8 and start some new tuning.
