Very interesting find by SSP...Curious how many (if any) faild SST transmissions here in the US were directly do to this

[zeRep85]

wow....speechless....

WTF!!

[MTZL]

Factory clutch alignment tool? Thats pretty bad.
But hand stamp numbers its recycled part..
maybe it passed their QC test?
Its just a matter of time,
TC-SST gets taken apart & info made public.

Gawd...i was worried about reaching the torque limit NOW im worried about having 'recycled' parts!

I already had a warranty issue with the tranny oil pan!

You planning on doing something Mike (MTZL)?

[MTZL]

All I can do is find as much as info on TC-SST.
I bought TC-SST Front Mount Coolers Kit from Mike@RRE, just waiting on SST fluids.
I dont have a problem with my TC-SST. So we will see..
When it comes a time to replace the Twin Clutch..
Things can always be made better after finding out how it works.

That's f*d up were we might drive something that's "reconditioned"...especially mitsu is denying warrenties...that's really f*d up!

SST pressure data
This is razorlab info from evolutionm (Thanks Razorlab/Bryan) ;)

So we are getting more info on TC-SST...
I encourage everybody to join-in on the research.
Knowledge is power.

However, our TC-SST uses 1st & 3rd gear for reverse is what I have been told...

my tranny went at about 20,000 miles. It was a b*tch getting mitsu to replace under warranty, but they finally gave in after about 2 weeks of me bringing the car in almost daily.

Here is the original twin clutch transmission invented in 1938 by Adolphe Kegresse a frenchman who worked for citroen

[blkside]

Whats the highest HP/TQ tranny that HAS NOT been replaced yet? Anyone know?
