Could they not be moulded out fibre glass or carbon kevlar?
Thats going to add alot of frontal weight to an already nose heavy car if i'm not mistaken? I think its good that people are still wanting to design/fabricate parts for our cars but is there not another choice of material you could use?
yes its the tailpiece,i actually looked into getting the casings fabricated myself but the cost of moulding on one style of casing would have been around the figure you have quoted but each casing would have been made from an alliminium billet blockwhich would have been far better than steel and damned sight lighter aswell.
the initial cost to get the machine setup etc would have been around 10k (this would have had to have been added to initial units price) which made the whole thing financially unviable as people will simply not spend that kind of money on an old japanese rust bucket.
if the works in progress were you making alterations to the bearing housings on tailpiece or is this the WHOLE gearbox casing including the front section of box?
because the other problem is that you will then transfer all the torque to the front input shaft bearing which can then push bearing and break through the poorly fabricated front main casing and that alone completely finished any ideas on getting the new tail section fabricated
My apologies, from the way you described it, it sounded like you were making a complete casing, no mention of 'end casings'.hi all
i am new in this forum.
I own gti-r high WHP more than 600 hp .and i know all of you guy's have a problem with gearbox case .
i read all post in this forums and in other web sit . after that i figure many people in all the world thy share us the same problem .
So now we are in progress to made our new gearbox case also we modification some little changes in case design.
But that case will be DIRECT FIT NO NEED ANY FABRICATION.
About material we have two different material cast iron and hard steel these material under testing in our work shop .
The price will be between 1200 - 1400 gbp
we are welcome any suggestion.
My thoughts exactly......i have £1200-1400 gbp right here that im willing to give to somebody with only 3 posts to their name.
what country are you in ?
yes its the tailpiece,
why? couse the front housing supose to hold alot more than the rearend, reasons? couse the design is much better than the end case, moreover; the front housing can be easly modified with exctra welding IF NEEDED.
what gearset are you using with this case. ?

:-D Yes I am not from UK,My thoughts exactly......
Now I don't want to be a pr!ck, especially to a guy who sounds like he is willing to put time and effort into something which some of us need...........BUT
1. You can't speak English very well so are obviously not in the UK
2. You have only just joined the site
3. Your claim of 600WHP is a big one.......
Please do share the spec and pics of your car?
