modified tranny

[ultimo]

hi,

does anybody heard of a modify tranny? using a stock 1.3liter mazda engine, EFI, car runs at 80KPH on 1st gear with this modified tranny. havent done this though but a mechanic told me that he already tested this.

i would just like to confirm if this is true, since i havent tried to race the car he modify.

wow, thats really fast in first gear. why would you want first gear to be that high? you'd have problems moving from a stop.

@oxbrain,
sir its just making your car faster with modified tranny, better acceleration. but im not sure yet how it is done.

Hi guys... is it really possible to make the car run fast by tweaking the inside of tranny? or should there be parts inside the tranny that has to be changed? what do you think? has anybody done this? From what i've heard here in our place, one car runs fast and only the tranny was somehow modified/tuned. What might be the possible tweaks has he done?

[spectator]

Tsk.. tsk..tsk..

Anyway, followup que.. is there any truth to altering gear ratio to speed up tranny? has anybody done this?? Is it true that it can be (re)set?

P.S. honest answer please.. don't confuse the novices :roll:

It is technically possible to alter you gear ratios, but no one in their right mind is going to waste the time/effort/money to do it to a festy/aspire tranny. So in practical terms, No.

holy cow!..............CryptokiD you got me. stop making non-sense post. it does not make you rich dickhead!

[Safety Guy]

Alter gear ratios by turning a screw? Why not put a knob on the dash to "custom tune" your tranny performance? :roll:

Hell, I'm not really a "mechanic" and I didn't believe that one!

Whether final drive or the individual gears, I believe you have to take the damn thing apart and switch cogs or something. Just like on a derailleur equipped bike, only more difficult.

Actually, a CVT kind of comes close to this deal, but it's designed that way and works automatically.

Well, you can put a knob on your dash to adjust shift firmness in an auto if you're so inclined. It involves quite a bit more than just having a knob though

Yeah I was waiting for all the BS sirens to go off.. Looks like kidcurry hinted first, but it took 5 posts before Yvan dropped another hint.. 6 for Fred to finally blow the whistle.. Hey Fred.. see this is how YOU used to be.. It just shows you that when one matures up.. another steps in to take his place.. :lol:

[CryptokiD]

nahhhh
i know i havent been here that long so i dont have too much elbor room, however judging from the sparse searches i have managed to do, fred hasnt really changed. he is still an arse just like he was back in the day, hes just more reserved and snotty about it now.

just...

funny...anybody with a little...mechanical knowledge know it is impossible...lol and " wow " mean the person who write this made a good joke to the newbies...lol

d ont worry, be happy

Even I thought it was BS, and I'm pretty gullible. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you have to change the # of teeth on the gears to change the ratios, something that cannot be done with a twist of a screw unless there's some really weird type of transmission that I've never heard of with this capability.
