Dog Box
Can somebody explain me what this is?
I see people having them on Skylines and other vehicles, but I tried to search and came up empty. I thought it's a sequantial transmission, but then found a video of R32 Skyline, which seem to have a hard time engaging in a gear and wasn't sequantial. So what is it? and what is the advantage as they seem to be pretty expensive?
Thanks.
PS Sorry if this is in the wrong section.

Wow.. I thought a DSM dogbox tranni was expensive, apparently It's almost 10g's for Shep to make one for your evo. Anyways, to answer part of your question... There are some major modifications required to make a dogbox tranni, and they are build to hold a #^% load of power. It's hard to engage because it's a race-only tranni. Buy one for your evo, and it'll take what ever you can throw at it. Take a look here at Shep's Dogbox: http://www.sheptrans.com/stage5.php?vid=evo

kinda off the topic, but i think this web site, in addition to a tech review of their own zero shift tranny, they compare it to a dog box...
anyway, check it out

sorry, i checked the web site again after a few months and they appear to have changed it to more of a coporate/investment slant and less tech info than before. sorry, but there are some links to articles that probably compare the two
