input shaft, stronger clutch material should hold 600 hp. reverse are fun but its not needed unless you want it. its not stronger than a standard forward shift patern. as far as shifters go i am partial to the b&m megashifter, ive had the star and that thing is worthless.

GO with the C4 they can handle alot of Hp like already said . You can get It made bullit proof by a Guy out in Cali named Deam Mason he owns Trans Lab. The Guy is a genius when it comes to transmisions. He makes high performance valve bodies for 350z's that can handle 800 horses. He has been in the buisness since the 70's I have know him since I was a child .My father worked for Dean when he live in wildwood Nj and had Deans transmision shop . Basicly the is the best person probally in the world when it comes to makeing transmisions take wicked amounts of horse power . If you want his email adress I can pm it to you

So now that you are decided on a C4 ...... do you plan on buying one already built OR building your own? It would be easier to buy one...
