DavidI think unless a aftermarket set of plantery's are made, we've got no hope..Seems once you made the auto shift, to stop earily failure of frictions, the plantery gears say no more.. Be it, E series, A series, or B series plantery replacements.Im willing to push my box hard, knowing that plantery gears are going to be the failure point (we havent seen intermediate shaft failures like some have reported).. I have broken the planterys 3 times now. Running with ET streets on the street doesnt help :D

What do ya recon you need to change & how much power will be enough to do it with your setup?This is the quickest car ive owned, so its all new to me, but I expect I will have to get it to under 1500kg, and have 250 more hp, and run a low 1.3 60ftI think the stock rear will cope from what I have seen so far, the tail shaft will have to be changed I think, but I will leave it in untill it breaks.I will play away, but each second you go quicker, it gets a lot harder. if the stock motor gets a 9.5 sec I think the built one should do the rest for me.imo David
