polished manual trans case and rear half of diff. chromed front half otherwise stock internals at this point. running haltech, turbonetics t78 ball bearing turbo, bar and plate I.C. 4" thick 12" x 24", custom fuel rails, hand built intake manifold, undecided ignition??, 3mm hurley seals, polished rotor housings front cover turbo, oil mods by pineapple, street port, 3" exhaust racing beat, mazda trix strut tower brace + torque brace, aftermarket mounts all around, toe eliminator bushings, ALL new suspension steering bushing components, underbody stripped and painted with bedliner (red) subframes and ties (blue) rotating components painted white, basically a new car but nicer than new with an estimated 500 rwhp.



THE GOAL: dont break the $2000 polished drivetrain components

get maximum performance from said components



Heard a rumor about modifying syncros?



looking for any suggestions relating to modifying internals of trans or diff

should I run a cooler for trans and diff since polish/chrome will have an adverse effect on cooling ability of components? if so where should I tap and what size lines and what to use to pump?



looking for a good reliable ignition upgrade that works well with haltech



any help on these topics would be greatly appreciated

Cheers!

Syncro upgrades? Never heard of it. I would rebuild the trans for 500 bucks. Rebuild the diff with new clutch plates for 500. 1000 spent.



Summit racing sells oil and trans coolers with the pump for around 150 each. They have a pump and cooler and you haev to supply the lines. For the trans you use one of the drain bolts and the top fill plug. For the diff you also use the drain plug and fill plug and oil gets pumped out of the drain and pumped in through the fill. The tricky part is finding a place to mount the cooler so that it sees air.



Then I would spend the rest on two Crane Hi6 and two lx92 coils.

Thank you. Hopefully I can fit the coolers in the bumper, custom made, styled after mazdaspeed gtc bumper.
