Default Transmission Upgrades

Hi guys !!

Im in South Africa and our 95 LS/Vtec Turbo Civic has run a best of 10.2 @ only 22psi but we seem to be running into tranny problems as we've broken two 4th gears, one 2nd gear and one the ring gear recently.

What transmission mods (gear sets, synchro's etc.etc....) are the top SFWD car's running.

Basically what im trying to find out is what kind of tranny setup you guys with the big power cars are running - so i can determine what route to go with my tranny.

Currently using a B16A transmission with Quaife diff !!
Also your experience with "Gearspeed" "Mfactory" 'PPG" etc....

Thanx for your help
Riaan

for 2 years while we didnt have anything upgraded, we were able to get by with OEM gearsets with the libertys gears 4th gear cuff & circuit worx final drive. we would get around 8 or so pass's out of them before something broke. we were putting ~800 hp through them, and went 9.0@ 152 i belive.

we have since gone to a complete libertys gears transmission, so far all is well.
