To Blue370tt:
Eat my ***: Confirmed 7AT failures: 1. Shumby 2. this guy 7 speed good it just can not believe this. Unconfirmed: 1. One identified by a tuner in my area -- I'll allow that this is hearsay. 2. And I thought at least one other on here -- anyone??? If we go only with the confirmed failures on here, there are two. How many people have boosted their 7AT's? 5? 6? Let's assume 6 -- that's 2/6 or 33% failure rate. Let's pretend it's 10 -- that's a 20% failure rate. If there's less than 100 people boosted I want to know what the fvck went wrong before I risk destroying my new car. The failure rate is way too high. People can take whatever risks they want with their own car, but speaking only for myself, until the reason for the failures and a reliable solution is clarified, I'm holding off on boost. Thanks ![]() I prefer to err on the side on caution for a brand new 30K + car... EDIT: Okay, so WHY did the others fail and why is it that yours has held up? Don't be a smart *** -- if you have no idea, then all you can do is say that yours hasn't failed! That's great -- I certainly don't wish it to, but why should your positive experiences be given more weight than the negative experiences of others? If we don't know, then "the jury is still out" is a totally fair assessment. If there are 10 boosted 7AT's and 2 failed, that's still 20% failure rate! That's ******* high! I want to know how to avoid that before I lay down several grand, thanks. Jeez. P.S. If yours eventually fails will you post an apology? Don't disreagrd the failure rate just because yours has held up -- and I hope it does -- but your sucess story doesn't make the failure stories any less serious.

More Bull crap.......guy #2 is in thailand and no one could ever really tell what he had done. YES, the suspicion is that he had a stillen SC, but that was never determined. Your use of this is another great example of people taking 1.....yes ONLY ONE......failure and trying to kill the 7AT transmissions rep. I talked with Shumby by email and his SC install was AFTER many miles (over 70,000). Anyone with a brain knows that putting ANY FI situation on a high miles car is probably going to lead to some kind of failure.
UNTIL WE HAVE ANOTHER VERIFIED 7AT FAILURE YOU CAN JUST STOP......PLEASE STOP! Some noob on this forum is going to run with your bull and these UNTRUTHS will just continue. I have done EVERYTHING in my power to protect my tranny, but, if it does fail, I wont shy away from letting everyone know. As hard as I push my car DAILY, I woould think it would of happened by now. Its been OVER a year and its still fine. Quote:

For me, here in Brazil, is better boost this car, becouse for me, this car comes for R$220.000,00 (or UR$130.000,00) +
UR$35.000,00 (TT, exhaust, coilover, special breaks........) = UR$165.000,00 For the americans, is better buy the new GT-R, but for me, the new GT-R comes for R$400.000,00 (or UR$235.000,00) (Sorry my bad english again ![]() |
