I rang every single automatic shop in newcastle when I wanted mine strengthened and everyone one except toronto said they wouldnt even open it and try, ............

I dont understand why. They are just a hardned Borgwarner 3 Speed with Overdrive. its not like they are a ZF 6Speed or anything jeeze.

So because they are built after 2003 it means they have parts from Intergalactic space ships. Cmon guys LOL.

Yeah prestons is the way to go. I am still waiting for a blat Boagan

WHen the tunes finished, its going back to blacktak friday the 6th where hopefully justin will be able to run more the 9 degrees timing and get the power it should be putting out. whats the go with the ghia? gonna charge it or sell it for a t?

[jimmy_c]

Not sure yet. I have found a few XR6Ts that take my fancy. I want a 6spd man or auto. pref. BA MKII or BFI.

spend a few k on it and I will have a ball tearing weapon. Wont sound like an eight but will go harder.

to beef an auto up there is Prestons and Kewish in melbourne and Dominello in sydney. That was all I could find when I needed mine done.

The presto 380kw unit shifts quick and hard. It felt so much better in my car for firm power delivery. It sucked a little when you were puting around town though, the refinement suffered a little, my Mrs whinged a bit at the gear changes being more noticable, but I liked it (the gear changes, not the whinging)!

MG

PS Dominello is closer than the guys in melbourne, but I cant vouch for his work
