quick shift kit question
my friend has a 94 z28 automatic, hes heard good things about shift kits and hes thinkin bout gettin one..question- what exactly to they do, i know one of the things they do is make your tranny shift harder (autos shift smoothly because before they shift, they are actually in two gears), the harder a tranny shifts the longer it lasts. does it do anything else? like increase speed?

Re: quick shift kit question
yes, it does increase speed, and reduce times, reduces trans temps cuz the trans dosnt slip for so long. the main reason they shift soft is for comfort, the general public dont like short snappy shifts, so they are sofened up for mass approval.

Re: quick shift kit question
Pair up a transgo shiftkit with a corvette servo, and you've got yourself one hell of a 1-2 shift..
The only downfall is that those incredably hard shifts cause a lot of strain on your rear end, and the tranny itself.. Ive seen a few guys shreddin' their rear end's shortly after building up a tranny..

wow, shift kits are pretty cool...speaking of transmission temperature, can you buy a thermometer for it so you can watch it while driving?

Re: quick shift kit question
boobs is boobs (for some people)...you guys ever seen that dude that got breast implants?!?! that was freakin hilarious
but on to the question at hand, yes you can buy a trans temp gauge that should come with the sensor that you mount in the trans pan. its actually a very good gauge to get, one easy way to see a trans problem coming is by how hot she runs...
