That's right Eddie (re: g/box).

Realistically though, if it's a daily driver & does the occasional trackday, the majority of shifting is not going to be in anger in the same fasion as a track car (Though i'm not disputing that many people hammer their boxes on the road). And an engine like the 4ag, having little torque (NA we're talking here), needs plenty of revs - which on a circuit means lots of shifts to keep it in the powerband (peaky tuning), and typically high input shaft speeds. It equates to a punishing effort on a road g/box. But it's all relative, we're not comparing to F1 here, just to larger engines with torquier deliveries.

Conversely, an everday car endures many more gearshifts and running hours, I will be interested to see how my T3 holds up.

FWIW, Gabriel from T3 *claims* to get lots of good wraps on them. (But then what else would he say)? The quality of manufacture on them seems tidy though.

My 2 bobs. Smile
