s2king is running 7.50's at 179 with the ppg gear set, i think itll hold for the most part. this gear set is about 8k but still gotta clutch and still uses the stock trans case so there are limitations to it. anytime you put an aftermarket gear set in a stock case, it eventually becomes an expensive bandaid.
cant really put a gforce in a daily driver. more fabrication required including an adapter plate and aftermarket bellhousing. but no clutching necessary and indestructible for the most part. PPG synchro set which is leaps and bounds better than a stock gear is only about 5k Gforce trans can be clutch assisted and h pattern just depends on which ya get. |
can someone make an affordable tranny option already, I'm scared I'm just gonna blow mine up

Don't the clutchless transmissions require a ton more maintenance and upkeep?

No. Not at all. We have 4 seasons on ours. Never been opened. Just fluid changes. Pressure plate requires some adjustments every now and then.

There won't be one. The civic guys, most of which have been around for FAR longer really don't have anything "cheap" to date. It's a no win situation. Basically only thing to do is upgrade to a completely different platform. |

I change mine twice each year

and u said these are no good for a daily, or a weekend car?

They make the gforce in a h patter to be more street friendly. Mine is gated. They are straight cut gears which are noisy. I drove my civic with a liberty trans on the street just fine.
The gforce is just a gear box. It requires some custom fab with an adapter plate and aftermarket bellhousing. Whereas the ppg is a gear set that you slap in the stock case. In my opinion these gear sets that swap right into the stock case are just band aids. Just like the liberty I had on my fwd civic. |
