VFII LS3 Manual 1st to 2nd gear changes

[bbunnys]

Ok, cheers Smashfest. Mine goes on dyno next week after mods complete.
Guess I’ll see how it goes. But I think I’ll be saving for a new clutch

Clutch life is going to depend on how you drive it. I've been driving mine for a couple of years with that power level, just be aware of the limitations you have.

My Redline has almost 20,000kms on the ODO and the 1st to 2nd changes are smoother now. I started to notice the difference at around 16,000 KMS.

my VF has done this once already, ill have to keep an eye on it

Hey mate, did you get this issue sorted or did you just deal with it? My vf does this once in a while and it's quite irritating.

penrite pro gear, get rid of that auto trans fluid quick, change in all my manuals over the years heaps smoother shift and better feel

i tried penrite pro gear oil in my box at 10ks and it made the box gear change worse more notchy , after a month i went back to factory recommend trans fluid, much smother gear changes than the thicker penrite oil, factory GM engineers recommend oil and weight for a reason after thousands hours testing
