Anyone else besides me is waiting for their kit?
|
yup both of us :) but maybe in different situations hehehe
|
Me too. Waiting since Feb 2010.
Paid in full. Its going to be a one nasty Z in Canada. 4.08 gears GTM torque converter. (installed). traction control, (some day VVEL) and some very secret modifications to the induction sysytem. Not from GTM Z |
I don't quite understand the benefits of the current torque converter at this point in time when GTM are still meant to be producing something for the 7AT after having received Shumby's ruined transmission.

I would say it is not the fix for the 7 AT. Upgrading the VB would help but the problem is the small clutch pads in 5th, 6th and 7th gear. They can not take the abuse, if you are crusing in drive 7th gear and you floor it with the SC on the car it will downshift to 5th or 6th. And the pads can not take it.
My 7 AT shift great under load and i dyno in 5th all the time and i have no issues to date and i putting down 320 rwhp. with at least 60 passes down the 1/4 mile. Z |
No polished intercooler?@!?!?!
:eekdance: |
Valve body upgrade will help speed up the shifting which in turn does not heat up the trans oil as much, but then again VB upgrade is only available for the 5AT (at least for now).
An oil cooler will also keep the trans oil cool and help lengthen it's life. A torque converter upgrade does nothing to longevity. It simply helps with launching and slip. But as Z eliminator said, the problem is with the clutch packs in the last 3 gears. It's all about driving style. If you're going 60mph in 7th and wanna go WOT, drop it to 3rd gear first with the +/- BEFORE pushing the pedal all the way in. That way, you don't stress the trans and cause premature failure. It will help your trans last longer. For the 5AT, I think it's the 4th and 5th gears that are weaker. |
