I have a gsr trans jus put a brand new CC stage 5 in it
Took it to the track an for some reason it wont go in to gear at high rpm's....I need some help I was told it was the pressure plate not being able to hold the 490hp an 380tq....please help me

 

take it apart. shift forks are most likely damaged

 

I had same problem with my stage 5. I have a good feeling its just due to the clutch not fully disengaging. You need to lay on your back under the steering column and adjust the clutch pedal. Its a 12mm nut on the rod that goes into the clutch master cylinder. Asjust it so the clutch engages with the pedal out further thus being able to push the clutch in further and fully disengaging it.

 

What he said

 

So u guys don't think it's the pressure plate not being able to handle the torque?

 

No mine handles the same torque no problem. I have the upgraded plate though. The clutch not holding the torque wouldn't really be a reason for it not to go into gear. Adjust that pedal and give it another shot

 

if it were the PP not being able to handle it the clutch would be slipping. a PP is what makes a good clutch. sure the disk is a lot but the heavier the PP the more trq it will hold

 

Clutch problem. Turn down the boost and try again I bet it will go into gear fine.

 

check ur clutch

 

il will bet on it that its the shift forks broken and not the clutch. OP needs to check it out.

 

No always true. Why do CC stage 5 with upgraded pressure plates(2300lb) hold more than ACT 2900lb clutches? Pressure is relative but the fulcrum(sp) point is what makes the clutch hold the power

 

need to adjust the clutch pedal first. with a stiffer diaphram, you need to adjust it so it engages more towards the middle of pedal through to 3/4.

 

the act is a 6 puck i do believe. the cc is 4 puck. so the 4 puck has more pressure on those 4 pucks. the 6 puck is spread out a little more to the otehr 2 pucks this making each puck having less pressure on each.

 

i think i might have figured the problem out......how many bolts does the pressure plate have?... cause i think like 2 of them are missing.

 

make sure you got the CC throut bearing.

 

how many holes are in the flywheel. that would answer your question.

 

Yeah know homie...I think the problem might jus be a loose pressure plate...it's missing like 2bolts....smfh!!!

 

No

Power has nothing to go with the engagements of gears. Its all spining the same speed no matter how much power is being made

Yeh so the car shifts fine with broken shift forks but doesnt shift fine at high rpms? And so he has broke all 3 shift forks at the same time? Interesting lol

Ive used a stock throwout bearing on the clutch with no problems. Same with my CC twin disc

 

youve obv never had this happen before.
ive had shift forks do both things. ive had a trans grind like a SOB low rpms but go in fine at 8k and ive had a trans shift like butter at low rpms and would not go in above 7k.

and never once said it was all 3 forks.
both were to to shift forks with chunks broken off of them. and after they were replaced the trans shifted like butter no matter the rpms

 

8, you must have 2 bolts show up somewhere? 19 ft lbs, and I always use blue loctite

 

8? usually its 6 or 9 bolts

Lol

 

Ive actually bent my 3-4 shift fork due to the exact same problem the OP is having so i do know a little bit about it. He didnt start a thread saying "trans wont go into 2nd" or "wont shift into 3rd" hence why i stated its not likely the problem if he cant shift into any gear at a high rpm. Whats hasent been stated yet is, was the trans fine before the clutch swap?

 

well he didnt say anything about any gear directly. and also you are right about if the trans was alright before swap.
i guess this just mean more info is needed. unless the 2 bolts that are missing on the pp are his problem

 

yeh its always good to put all the bolts in lol
