    For those who don't know, car transmission gears are helical so they are waaay more quite, what you're hearing is each individual tooth of each gear hitting thr next one on the gear it touches and that makes alot of noise in the vid, its basically spur gears like in lego sets

      I was pretty confused at first since I shift based on engine sound and the sound got loader when he shifted up. I then realized it was the titled transmission. The reverse acoustic feedback still hits hard.

    • @redcrafterlppa303
      @redcrafterlppa303 Рік тому

      @CannedCoochie I mean that usually the dominant sound in a car is the engine and it gets louder with high speeds in low gears (high rpm). But here the transmission overshadows the engine sound and the transmission gets louder when the car is faster. So you shift up accelerate and instead of hearing the expected noise reduction after the shift it just gets louder.

    For everyone complaining about the sound, the signal is clipping. Microphones by their nature pick up certain frequencies better than others which makes those frequencies louder, and in this case the engine whine at higher frequencies is coming through too loud for either the mic or the audio signal to handle and it's distorting/clipping. No doubt it sounds pretty bad in the car but it sounds way worse to us.

    This is a straight-cut differential too, hence why the pitch keeps increasing constantly with speed! Other categories have only the gearbox gears as straightcut so the pitch of the whine drops back down with each shift.

    • @jimmysdipsticks
      @jimmysdipsticks 7 років тому +34

      I do not believe this is necessarily correct. The output shaft will of course always be increasing in RPM with speed and therefore will produce the same sound. A differential must match a pinion to a ring and you will not geometrically be able to create "straight" cut gears. Not in the sense that the tooth peeks are parallel but you could cut them to be convergent on the ring center and center-mount the pinion which could make more noise.

    yes, the straight cut gears can handle a lot more power, however, there is a problem with them after some time. the gear heads wear off and sometimes cause a rough engagement. That is if you are running 500+ HP. If you use them for a normal family car, they sound like a supercharger and probably will last a lifetime of the car.
