Is the valve body recab. avalible for the 3rd gen yet? i heard it was in process or something. In a few months i may be looking to do that if its gona be avalible.

 

yeah its been available for a while now. i'm thinking i wanna do it pretty soon.

 

Hehe..ok...
I got my trannie rebuilt a few months ago...and i heard this can make em last longer n stuff so i figure its worth it. is there a noticable difference in shifting afterwards?

 

i heard that it makes a big difference. i dont know who all has one on a third gen yet. but it should make an incredible difference in shifting.

 

VG trannys don't work with Don's VB mod!!!!! if you want a VB mod you'll have to go with Level Ten Transmissions and spend $700 for it opposed to Don's more affordable $400!! I'll be going with Lev 10 next summer for my nitrous project, unless I can get a spare VB and send it to Don for some testing!! sorry to burst your bubble!!! :bawl:

 

umm...hmm...the VG and VE trannies are different by that much? i thought they were basically the same. damn...700 bucks...daz almost as much as the rebuild was :
oh well i guess ill just get a big-*** trannie cooler and hope it dosnt die again

 

now for the exact differences, I'm not sure, but I doubt its a great difference, BUT hey who wants to be a guinea pig, ya know!! when Don told us the first time, I was all excited, BUT then he broke us the news that its only for the VE tranny or #R----!!(not the one in VG's) Unless he can do a VG one by summer 2001 I'll be going with Level 10, heh $700 just to tolerate a little boost!!!! Boggles my mine some times

 

i'm pretty positive that he has it for the vg too. i know for a while he only had it for the ve, but i'm almost positive its available for the vg too. you should ask him about it.

 

Hmm...i dont plan on doing NOS...although i do plan on possibly autocrossing my car a little on the side. Guess ill spend the money i save on trans mods to do more suspension mods

 

if he's done the VG since August(when I last talked to him), then you've just made me A WHOLE LOT HAPPIER!!!!!! I'm definently gonna check though, $300 difference is too good to be true!!!

 

i don't believe this is true...if the vg one was made, we woulda heard about it and quite a few of us would have gotten it by now...also it's doubtful don will be making them anytime soon due to a recent "argument" a few weeks ago...he's stopped producing them for now...

 

I'm pretty sure that it is available for the VG too. A couple of months ago Don posted a thread saying that he would do the VB recalibration for like $350 for people who had the VG's. It was a couple of months ago but I'm pretty sure. I have the VG and I wouldn't have paid any attention to it if it was for the VE. I would do a search or just give him a call.

 

what is a valve body recalibration....what does it do and how much?????

 

It basically modifies the transmission to shift firmer(and maybe other stuff...not sure) but its supossed to make the trans last longer too
I think it costs like 350

 

fat mike....it gives the tranny full line pressure during the shifts which makes it shift much faster. it's a great mod for an auto tranny because it makes the car much quicker and helps keep the tranny working good. it can shave .6 seconds off your 1/4 mile et. thats almost a full second!

 

Umm....makes it shift at full line pressure?
I thought all u had to do that was unplug the 'dropdown resistor'?
Or is that only for the VG?
