After this recent rental and grinding or getting locked out of 2nd gear multiple times it seems it's about that time AGAIN to fix 2nd gear. The TR3650 just plain out sucks for drag racing, it's just not up to the task.
I am on my 3rd TR3650, I have a fresh on in the garage that is in working condition so I am going to see if I get it swapped soon.
But thinking longer term, do I continue to fuck up my transmissions or do I go... dare i say it...
AUTO!?
I LOVE to shift, I LOVE to kick that clutch in, but having to fix this motherfucker every year is pissing me right off and I don't make enough power to warrant a T56 nor do I want to, I;d like to stay NA, been reading up on the 4R70W and been hearing good things, I would probably go manual valve body if I did do it, or maybe just try and get a 5R55S but I've heard that swap is a bit more complicated?
What would you guys do? I was looking to get a new clutch for black Friday and swap it in with the working trans that I have in the garage and just work on the shitty 2nd gear and have that as another good swap on standby. I would have ZERO PROBLEM keeping my trans if it didn't keep havign 2nd gear shit the bed on me.
another IDEA, dogtooth just 2nd gear or some custom shit like that? (just thought of that since my only real issue is 2nd)
I don't know what its' called when they make a custom sycro with those big ass teeth...
