SOLD!

 

cool

 

Dog engagement is something I want to try.. How does it feel while shifting?

I switched from my tired OEM gsr tranny to a LOW mileage ITR tranny and its like night and day... Have not had any mis-shifts at all with a new shift linkage from the dealer, B&M short shifter and Poly bushings..

 

its so much nicer, There is ZERO insertion force going into gear, When the lever stops is when its in.

 

going to sleep bump

 

shift

sick tranny!!

 

up

 

good morning

 

good stuff

 

I GO IN GEAR HERE

 

just out of curiosity, what does this feel like compared to a normal trans?

 

The shift feels the same every time, no effort to put it in gear at high speed. It just goes.

 

Nyc!!! Bump

 

thanks!

 

but other than that shifting feels normal not weird or anything? all the gears just click right in? what about 1st does it still have that typical honda tough to get in 1st thing? what are drawbacks to this kind of setup/what is expected lifespan compared to a normal synchro trans? I'm seriously considering this for my si

 

PM'd

 

got your pm, great info thx

I would post that info up as I'm guessing alot of peeps have no experience with a dog setup

 

might as well:

No weird shifting, you always have to shift it directly into gear though whether you are cruising at a medium speed or racing. If you shift lazily it will kick it back out sometimes because its made for being in gear or out of gear, no in between...thats the only drawback as far as heavy street driving is concerned. It is never difficult to put it into gear, due to the nature of the engagement system, sometimes you may apply pressure to first, and then it wont fully go in until you start to move, you can look at the pics to figure out why that is the way it is, but its always direct and firm.

In a high horsepower application, the life of the sliders and engagement system are probably 20 times that of a synchro system, because there is no brass to wear out, its just a more direct engagement system that is not braking the speed down of the gear so you cant lazily shift on the streets. The synchro system does all of the work for a driver that people used to have to do back in the 50's. I think tractors and dump trucks still use this engagement due to its strength and reliability.

Shifting going down the track, my mis shifts have gone from about 20% of my runs to 0% lol

 

no miss shifts here
