Hi Im looking at getting a Jatco 3 speed fully rebuilt with the lot, to go with my up and coming build. (ive done a search) Which shops in melbourne are the ones to speak to? Please only comment if you have first hand experience Thanks in advance

Gzm speak to gorran Every box I've had is spot on from them

yeh same cant go wrong with gzm

X3 ^^^ Yep gzm built mine awsome gearbox

Random question, what are they priced like aprox?

Mine was abit over $4000 with converter

Is that for their full house, trans braked package?

yeah it is, for around that money you get one with all the bells and whistles, he was telling me that he built one for a customer thats gone 8.80's consistantly, in my opinion thats a top effort and you cant go past that. Even call and explain what your trying to achieve and he might be able to shed some light and tell you the easiest way

Thanks heaps guys, ill give them(gzm) a call

There is a gemini at the workshop where my car is runs 9.30s reliable with one 3speed 13b turbo brown one its at calder all the time and had a vid on fullboost

I personally wouldn't buy one if you're planning on racing a lot, go a glide - you'll break the jatco sooner or later, it's just money down the drain. I've broken standard, Hi-Tuf and Vasco input shafts with them, it's pretty frustrating. I had a full house trimatic before that, $1800 for the box alone, and it was on par with the jatco.

^^^^Not really looking at racing to much, more street car

yeah they're spot on for the street.

Sounds like it should be well within the boundarys of a jatco in a vl. 400rwkw in S.A is probally mid to upper 130 mph traps. I can't even remember now, but isn't it when you get to 140+mph's that people start breaking/twisting vasco input shafts generally or have some people had worse luck and broke/twisted them earlier? cheers darren

Anyone know if GZM are back from xmas break yet???

Next Monday chief

Thanks for that^^^
