V2NR 3.0, bro don't spend the money to build a tranny for a gazillion horsepower if you are not going to make it.
For my needs, a stock sr20 engine making 125whp and then a 75hp shot of nos(NOS brand measures the power their jets make at the wheel) meant that i was therotically making 200whp which a stock SR tranny with an external cooler could handle.
I needed a rebuild so I rebuilt using a stock off the shelf SR rebuild kit but also utilised a reprogram kit to correct some inherent SR tranny problems as well as adding some integrity to the box.
As little as below 3k shifting in D I used to peel tyres, not good for my tyre life but I didn't care cause this is how I set up the car to work. The other issues is when you have a tranny shifting so vigourously, you always burst mounts so I needed to reinforce them which added vibration to an everyday driver which again didn't make a difference to me cause it was a purpose built vehicle I made.
At the end of the day, you need to decide what you want to do with the vehicle and do your build based on that and not a boast build.

Looking for a reputable mechanic in South to rebuild my B13 tranny. My mech quoted me $2200 inclusive of all necessary items. Just want to check around to get an idea if this is a good price. The tranny is coupled with a QG15de in a B12 btw, (if that is of any importance.)

That's Papourie Road right sound boy? With Darren Car Sales on one end?

How much would a completely rebuilt automatic transmission (FWD SR20DE, non LSD), with Transgo Shift Kit and B&M super-cooler sell for?
Long story short...how much allyuh feel I could get for it?

Picture this, a identical cars set up the same and the only essential difference was the transmission, one being a lsd gb with a s&s clutch and the other lsd auto with some minor tranny work.
On the qtr mile, the auto always ran quicker times because where the guy with the gb had to lift to shift, and auto guy didn't so he was always on tap for power and in this case was nos. Btw, this is an actual local scenario.
Also when I fied clutches, a clutch for the tranny was $200 and for the power being outputted was cheaper than a s&s clutch.
My tranny costed $3k to build.
At the end of the day, anyone whoever decides on a build for their vehicle would master the art of what they have, don't knock it if you never did it.
