Nice one Jura, is that aftermarket paddles or the buttons on the Momo steering wheel, mines auto with the tiptronic gear shift and buttons on the wheel

No matey,i have Works Bell Paddle shifter Neo,proper paddle shift..
This Momo steering wheel with tiptronic buttons is slower than paddle shift.
I will recommend you fit better Transmission Oil cooler,if you are running more power.

Sounds good there Mate, did you ditch the Momo set up in favour of the paddle system you have, or add the paddle system, with the autobox as a mod project ?

Is there a standard oil cooler on the Autobox ? did you add one to yours ? what transmission fluid do you use ?

Sorry for all the questions ...! Si.

Hi matey yes we are ditch the steering wheel,was too big,just have look at this setup which we have now(big RPM meter is just history)


And Paddle shifter is straight forward fitting and easy to fit(for us this has fit Neil@Slowboy Racing),you can buy this paddle shifter from RHD Japan for around £400 and with this you are get Works Bell Boss Kit as well
No i'm not using standard oil cooler,i'm using Mocal Oil cooler which are good,you can use also any Oil Cooler(Mocal,Setrab etc.)
About gearbox oil we are using Millermatic SP3,which probably best here,but AMSOIL +4 are also good....

Awesome set up that - very nice, I've alsways fancied an aftermarket wheel but of course would lose the buttons then, this kit would do away with that - Great stuff !

What sort of power you running with it ? I mapped mine with Bob and I didn't really know what the 4 speed could handle, i'm on about 360.

Hell of a Rev counter BTW

Thanks matey,now engine is strokered to 2.1,Blouch Dominator 3.0XT-R,and some other addons(ALS on OE ECU,650cc with FPR,FMIC,blow through Maf or Big MAF tube etc),and power if its gearbox hold 450-500bhp i will be happy...
These gearboxes are generally strong,but biggest enemy is heat,not power/torque..
Best price for this Works Bell Neo is from RHD Japan or Nengun,here is nobody selling this...

360bhp is good,i've run for few weeks VF34(350bhp),but later we are found our engine have low compression and,due this we are doing little upgrade...

Great there is plenty of scope for the future, I'm running the 360 with a VF43 - maybe there's more left in it LOL...

Good luck with the upgrades

These gearboxes will hold around 400whp,but i would recommend at this stage at least Oil Cooler,uprated Valve Body(these are available only from USA)..
And if you like brake-launch start(great for drag),i would recommend also Torque Converter(also form USA only atm)
