Fitted the shift kit modification into the fairlane(switchable),last weekend.Works great am very impressed with it.I love the gear changes.If i stop at a intersection or whateva and then tromp it the fairlane wheel spins all the way through 1st and a then abit into 2nd.Its a beauty....Even at half to 3/4 throttle it chirps nice and hard and gets the car out of shape which is nice.

Any guys with a stall converter used this?? Any problems??

Ive got a 2800 stall and was wondering when it flashes up after stalling it, will there be any more "kick" with this mod???

Seems fairly straight foreward, but is it neccessary to get both 18ohm and 5.6ohm resistors in 10w?? Will like 5W burn up or something??

Thanks fellas.

Thanks for the reply, but where can I get a diagram? I can modify it to be adjustable if I had a circuit diagram for the BA model and post back here with the results.

This topic has been thrashed....
If your worried about long term effects, then simply dont install a shift kit.

Shift kits have been around for years, nearly every auto that goes on a drag strip has a shift kit. It is needed, to stop the trans cooking itself. As far as transmission life, It will last longer with a shift kit than without. As for the rest of the drivetrain, the shift kit will place more stress on components therefore you will need to keep up the maintainence.

More info for those whi are interested, from an TransGo source: http://www.drivetrain.com/transgoshiftkits.html
