This has got to be one of the most anticipated threads for me.... I'm on pins and needles! I can't wait to see some video of the car ripping it at a track.

Tell me about it!!! Picking up the gearbox tomorrow, should be in the UK mid next week, can't wait to install it and then tune the car!

Meanwhile, this is how the car was sounding with the old gearbox

SUPER MEGA FAST SERVICE!

Dave is a very nice guy, always helpful and knowledgeable, highly recommended!

Can't wait to fit the gearbox and have it back on the dyno!

What's been done to it? Clutch packs? Flex plate? Torque converter?

So from the day you shipped your trans from the UK, it took only 2 weeks for them to figure it out and build it up and ship it back?

That is some serious service! wow.

I like the sound of your exhaust, what is your setup?

Hi Charles,

Btw, thanks for sorting out my CJM fuel parts. Had a problem with the 370z Fuel Rails from you, the trumpets were not long enough to press the injectors in properly, only just cover the o-ring on the injectors. Any idea?

The box was delivered to Level Ten on the 30th of September and left yesterday 10th of October, so that's 7 working days (was ready on 9th October). Amazing fast service and brilliant customer service, Dave is absolutely phenomenal. I so much wish somebody like Level Ten, Coz @ CZP or yourself @ CJM would buy GTM and continue to manufacture their awesome products with proper customer service skills.

It's Amuse Titanium exhaust with MotorDyne Y pipe.

sub'd, the most interesting thread to pop in a long time. Waiting on what FI has going on since that would be a lot easier than shipping the whole trans across the country. Geeze, if FI, gets their kit CARB approved, I might have some tough decisions to make.

I will have to see a photo of whats going on. Send me an email when you have a chance. They are made to use injectors of the same body length as the stock injectors, which is about 48mm between the orings. Most the popular injectors are available in this dimension.
