I'd like to thank God. My family and friends who supported me through this all. Special thanks to CSS.net for all their info and all the vendors who helped me. Oh and John. He helpped a little too.

Lol.. dick.

I enjoy and care about tuning. Facebook on the other hand.... god help me. I could really give 2 ***** about what some tart ate for lunch yesterday, or that someone feels pouty today and doesn't feel like talking to anyone yet they decide to post it to the masses for some ungodly reason.

Well, I guess that answers the question, if the LNF tranny can take 400+whp but sorry man, that sucks.

I really wish I had a great story to tell involving some nasty hard fought race that I was involved in, but nope. Instead, it goes a little something like this....

I went to pass a pos corolla while getting on the highway, and well.... I never really got the chance to pass him.. lol

It's the same story over and over again with these F35 trans, particularly in the lnf. The taller final drive gearing of the lnf trans exerts more overall stress on the gear shaft, which causes the shaft to deflect more so than if there was a deeper final drive gear in there like used in the lsj for example. 3rd gear just happens to be in the center of the shaft an as a result ultimately sees the most defection, which causes most of the failures.

Long and short of it.... I knew it was coming, I just didn't expect a Toyota corolla to have been the car it finally failed on. lol
