There is no longer any need to 'sell out' to an auto just to stop breaking boxes when there are options like the amazing par gear set, you can go fast in a manual and not break it.

Ah well I suppose when you've got the cash to throw around you could build the thing up to make it handle the power. This is a drag car not a circuit car, right? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

There is a place in drag racing for h pattern manual cars, especially if Mo was interested in dyno comps?? I believe Sydney runs a fairly fast manual car?

At 11k + freight I'd rather go auto + redo a rear end setup and go a lot faster, not about being a bitch and swapping sides, it's about I personally couldn't justify spending that money on a straight line warrior

Fast VLs full stop, I think you'll find Whether it's true or not, the MR guys and Ben who owns TEMPER maintain that the box in the car is totally standard. I know that he has several replacement boxes for if/when the one in the car breaks, but if this is the case surely keeping a manual box alive isn't just about metering the power going through it and waiting for it to die, but rather ensuring that the ancillary hardware supports the combo? Kind of like matching your stall and tranny cooler to keep your auto functioning in tip-top shape, I'd say that clutch and oil choice have a lot to do with the longevity and health of manual boxes.

Pfft what would you know Liam, you have a 2.5 in a vl and a 3lt in a skyline, you have it wrong.

Ive been doing some thinking about this lately as well, what do you think would be the best h pattern for a fairly high powered drag car (800rwhp+) Os giken/PAR/PPG gearsets, helixical/straight cut?? Hollinger/HKS h pattern? Standard box replaced after every few meets? haha
