Suprash Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Chris, how long do these gear sets last far, I have heard they have a low life expectancy...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 It's pure race stuff, how long is a piece of string typ answer I'm afraid. Depends on usage, torque through it, tyre grip, blah blah. They are definitely NOT for those that want a daily driver and clock up lots of miles, a dog box is race track / drag strip only. You'd be mad to use a dog box on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Usmann A Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 LOL- Chris is right. Ash dont think youd want a crunch everytime you change gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
