alright i'm back home

it looks amazing! and it is pretty heavy! taxes and shipping was like 300! that was 300 everyone forgot about! alright got some problems!!!!

1: In the Precision Inudustries manual it has a troubleshooting thing, and one of them is "what if my car DOESN'T MOVE" then it says the TC may be damaged and you will need to get your tranny fixed as well!!??!!!

2: Is it a hard install? like i know its hard as in taking stuff off the car, but when you're putting the TC on the car, is it easy to mess up the whole car? i thought these things were almost bullet-proof!!!

plz help guys! there is a 2 year warrenty but no for imporopor installation, thats what im worried about! can you guys give me some tips for when i'm watching over this guy on my ride??? i'm gettin worried!!!!

p.s. did any of you guys put the stickers it came with on? i put them behind all the windows, on that black part, it looks good and bad, i can't decide if i like it, i'll probobly take em off soon

The TC will not fit your GS300. It is too big. The bell housing in the GS300 is smaller than the GS400 even though they are the same transmissions. This is because the 2JZGE engine is longer the the 1UZFE engine. You should call Precision and correct this problem before you attempt to install and waste time and money (labor).

i called precision industries, they say they aren't sure if it'll fit n e more, they are going to double check and then call me back. they are currently designing an IS300 TC so that will fit my ride if this one doesnt, i pray it does, but with my luck, it wont

thanx mo for your help

Sasha and everyone else, we need to buy from SRT. Mo is VERY helpful, this wouldn't have happened from SRT. Besides he gives great prices. Support the businesses that support us.

Mo,

I'm using SRT TC that is for GS400 on my GS430. Will it hurt my tranny? I'm very concerned about it.

Racing Aristo,
You will be fine, the GS430 and the GS400 share the same tranny with the same bell housing, the TC setup we get from Precision is not as aggresive as others and you get the maximum streetable benefits without sacrificing reliability and drivability.
