I run a turbo 944 transaxle ,it's kinda the big brother to the 016. A Mate runs this same trans in his DRB and has had no problems with 8 years of only racing miles. Infact I would say no other kit car in Oz would of completed more events than this car. My problem is clutch slip, now my Mate has the same clutch and no slip so I'm thinking I have a bung pressure plate. I have found someone to test and remake clutch plate if required. I also have a 6 Spd 01E trans which I think I will fit as they can take plenty of power without the Porsche cost. The other issue with Porsche G50 trans swap is the adapter kit. Another friend over here is building a DRB and has a g50 /LS1 and he has had nothing but trouble with the junk adapter kit he was supplied. Starter motor grinds and clutch was dodgy so don't really want the hassle of that.
