Higher Performance Frictions/POLL

[Jeff M]

Need to get some feedback from everyone I can, so I can convince some suppliers to make up some Higher Performance Frictions for the 4T60 family of trannies. Though the upgraded high-statics work very well and have not shown signs of letting go in the ones I have tested, I would love to be able to use the power of many to convince the suppliers to get us (and other 4T60/4T60E/4T60E-HD owners) some serious clutch upgrade options. I would like these so there is absolutely no chance of slipping clutches from those who are very hard on their autos, and those that seem to have to go NATO on the highways, those that race a lot and/or those looking for a larger hp turbo upgrade setup. Now all you with manuals can keep being shifty that’s cool, but the many very fast GNX, GN, T-Types, TTA, Syclone, Typhoon and others run an auto for good reasons, build some boost at launch, no spool down during shifts, consistency that is easier than with a manual so you can play to win very close to your dial-in. So to the auto guys, vote not just because you think you need it now or would like it now but if ever in the future you might have a breakdown or a planned upgrade and would like these Higher Performance frictions around to complete a good rebuild! Again I will have to fork out the initial work talking the talk to get these, and of course the dough, I just hope people do follow through when I need to get these sold, but I won’t even try to ask for cash now as I have seen too many such offers fail on other message boards. I expect the cost of a complete friction setup like this to run around $100 to $200 from what the suppliers tell me of other Higher Performance Clutch kits.

 

Thanks for your time guys, back to work for me!
