Title: What Trany For 2007cc?
Post by: egspot on March 30, 2006, 10:47:51 PM

What would be my trany requirements when I build a 2007cc?

I want the bug to be able to handle a trip to Kamloops via the Kokahala and for it to serve as a daily driven VW.

Coquihala Highway = stock gears.


What else are you going to do with the car?  Burnouts?  Street drags at Mission?  Occasional slamming gears?

How heavy is the car?  Swing axle?  IRS?

I knew I had a problem with Coquihala, did not know it was spelling it. :D

Mission right now looks like a dream, I have to leave that for my idols, i.e. Hulk and the other big guys. However, occasional slammimg gears , uh maybe.

1500-1600 Lbs, Swing axle.

Slamming gears  =  steel 1-2 shift fork.  

Burnouts = super diff.

Drag racing = 9 tooth first gear.  

If you are never going down the track, you don't need aftermarket axles.

Welding the syncro hubs to the gears is pretty much standard.
