How many trannies have you blown?
Sven is a faggot. Imagine my surprise.
>>28772781None because ZF8 is bulletproof
T-45 went out. Car still sits 9 years later.
>>28772781None because I don't drive autotragics...
>>28772781None, because I'm not a retarded boomer who shifts the transmission from drive to reverse and back while the vehicle is still in motion.
>>28772781None, because I use the best 6 speed manual known to man.Race shops actually recommended I use a mix of ATF and gear oil in mine.3 Qt ATF1 Qt 75w-90 gear oil I'll have to try it out.
>>28772781The only transmission I've killed was a non-World Class T5 back in the 90's that I powershifted into Third despite knowing better. Front Torrington bearing on the countershaft objected strenuously to it.Second place would go to a 5R55S in a 2004 Lincoln LS V8 where it lost 2nd and 5th in a manner that suggests the 2-5 Servo piston broke but since it continued to move, just without 2nd and 5th, it's more like it got sick. No time then so I traded the car in on a 5.7 Challenger with the ZF8 so there wasn't an autopsy of the 5R55.
>>28772781None, because I'm not a mustang driver. Those tards can break anything.
>>28773598I use Pennzoil or GM Syncromesh in mine. Works just fine and no notchiness.
I blew my clutch out of my Nissan Versa after getting caught in an ice storm in hill country. Sliding backward down a hill in first is a terror I hope I never get to experience again.
>>28772781Oh I've blown at least 20 trannies, it's nice, easy and fun because they are generally pretty small and often can't get hard.Oh wait this is /o/...
>>28773598Why not just ATF? Works fine for me. And inb4 ngr. Doesn't bother me at all.
>>28774238>>28774671I track my car, so normal fluids don't cut it.Usually 250F trans oil running temps on track.Amsoil synchromesh seems to work well for that.
>>28772781I'm heterosexual, I only blow engines.t. former tuned WRX owner
>>28774671Any kind of stress and you want actual gear oil for manuals. I had a g56 blow randomly at 100k cause evidently they run ATF from the factory.
I've cooked a clutch before. Does that count?
>>28773598There's a lot of differences in opinion about what fluid works best in a tremec. Including at tremec.Some say GM Syncromesh is all you need. Others say you need a non-synthetic only in dex3/universal spec.I've heard many anecdotes from people who've had a good experience with amsoil torque drive in the tr-6060 (OE version of the magnum).
