Does he even have a seat belt on?

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

Holy fuk, that is a new level of awesome carnage. Dumbass for not wearing is seatbelt and extra dumb for just "letin'er buck!" that thing did not sound good at WOT.

Also, side exit exhaust and they kept talking about doing some sort of swap....SRT4?

You hear them undoing some harnesses at the end before he yells watch out for fire..so yea, he is. atleast the driver anyway.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

Holy crap, that cameraman is lucky that flywheel didn't come through the floorboards. I put a scattershield on my car mostly for passenger safety since they're right in line with it. Some lucky SOB's.

That kid's a fuckin' dumb ass. He has a build thread on Link forums... A couple of guys talked him into building a gt42 car, even though you can tell this kid has NO IDEA what he's doing.

He had to be baby stepped all the way with what to do. Every problem he had, he came onto the forum crying. Even if it was just a boost leak.

It's a good thing that car took a shit and he parted it out, because he would've died or killed somebody with it.

Talking about doing a built auto tranny swap.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

I saw this guys colt on the 4g61t boards. Pretty cool, but seems he has more money than brains if his trans dropped on him like that....

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

Does nobody find this just awesome? I mean WTF does it take for that to happen..haha. To break the mounts, rip the bolts out, dislodge itself from the crank is crazy. Doesn't make me want a colt any less haha.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

I'm amazed that it ripped the flywheel right off the crank....hahaa

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

I'd put money on it that he didnt loc-tight the flywheel bolts and used a crap tq. wrench.... Just a guess though...

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

im guessing no loctite and no torque wrench at all, just tighten er down

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

Ha Ha That most likely is true.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

I wouldn't bet against those two ^.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

3rd gear locked up and broke off in the tranny sending it in to pieces and braking it all apart. he had arp fly wheel bolts in it also

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

I find it awesome. They don't seem so bad. There was minimal douchbaggery.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

I'm impressed.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

Oh, and it was third gear, right? Definately not 120mph. Maybe the OP meant 120hp?

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

mega awesome. the clutch escape had me rollin.

Re: Colt drops tranny at 120
 

I thought I was the only one who had a scattershield. I thought it was required at 11.99 or something back in the day (eithr not the case or not enforced). James has it in his garage if anyone is interested.

Interesting as the we were going to go gt42 on the colt we had.....

Definitly a flywheel issue.
