No, I haven't figured out pricing yet, the price keeps going up because we keep adding to the kit and cost to produce it. By the time it's all said and done I'd guess $10,000.....

The t-case has to be done here, it is included in the price of the trans but will have to be sent to use to change around.

For an update, still waiting on pricing and such on the new input shafts.

The only way to make this worth the money,is if your pushing 700+whp and if you run in the streets for cash. Put in $2k of your own money in the pot for each race for 5 races and youll make your money back in no time. Thats how i see it. But thats just my outlook and opinion on this whole automatic tranny conversion.

Never miss shifting or having to buy another clutch worth it

I wasn't trying to bash on BR or anything,i was just simply saying that you can pretty much make the money back that was spent on it. If its good for 40 consistent launches,then i will definitely make my money back and then some. I guess u can say its an investment. Btw,i know people making 700+whp on exedy twin and quarter master twin disc that spent $1,700 on them and not $3k and $2,500 for both trans and t-case. Get your numbers straight brotha, because this new setup is not going to be cheap. But i am sure it will do what its built to do.

When this BR automatic tranny comes out,i can already see "automatic vs manual" battles on the rise.

I emailed BR last week about this. Here's the response I got: "We are still working on the transmission and now have billet shafts being built. *I think in the spring the transmissions will be available for sale. *The entire kit is going to be close to $10,000."

Not to bash BR,but I'll stick to a built jacks tranny if it's going to that high and they are still uncertain of the price yet. I'm sure it will be a success,but too rich for my blood.

You can easily cover 25% of the cost by selling your transmission. To me it would be worth the cash to have something that will make my car more consistent as well as reduce shock/wear on the drivetrain. Although for the average person who only sees the track a few times a year I can see this not being worth the cost.

That's a bit of an odd response for this thread.
