    First time I’ve seen somebody go in depth like this into what it’s actually like to own one of these outside of just banging gears fast, love the insight!

    HI! I also drive a dog box in my Ford Escort Cosworth. I installed it three years ago and the first time I made a gear change while accelerating I was in disbelief at its speed. My car is not a racing one but a road one. It's not easy to use it like a synchromesh and you always have to know what you're doing, you always have to be focused and that's why it's wonderful! Going slowly, I use a different technique to change up: I press the clutch, move the gear lever to neutral and wait an instant for the primary shaft to slow down, then quickly engage the higher gear; this way three times out of four you don't even hear your teeth chattering. To downshift, always when I'm going slowly, I instead do the classic one-two punch to match the revs: down the clutch, gear lever in neutral, up the clutch, hit the accelerator, down the clutch and engage a lower gear; even so you can downshift without any teeth chattering. When going fast, however, I always use the clutch and engage the gears, both up and down, as quickly as possible: I tried to do the flat gear shift without the clutch but it doesn't feel instinctive and it makes the car make a lot of jolts!😟 At the time everyone told me not to install it because it is a gearbox that is unusable on the road and that those few who had installed it after a few months had removed it out of desperation, but I was too eager to try it and so after a year of evaluations I I got it and have been using it ever since and have never regretted it and will never go back to synchromesh again! If you are a mechanical fanatic, if you don't care about comfort, if you enjoy dominating your car, if you are willing to make some small sacrifices then the dog box is the best gearbox in the world! 😃 It's the only one capable of making you feel like an active part of your car! I am 100% convinced of my choice and I wonder why the manufacturers don't install it directly on very sporty cars, perhaps as an optional extra. Those who speak badly of the dog box are simply because they have never used it and speak from hearsay; 🤫🤐they are not really passionate about mechanics and want everything to be easy, without commitment, without understanding how things work, without making any sacrifices... they are the right customers for electric cars!😉

    Good video keep it up, i got a ppg dog box in my evo kinda scared too street drive it since i want to it last and its not cheap to fix lol maybe ill just send it see how long it does last, maybe make a video on it cause theres not much information on dogboxs / street driving / long jevity kinda, im sure it'll be fine tho since i know how to drive an probably wont beat on it to hard for a while till i get a lil more comfortable with the dogbox. Probably not gonna no lift to shift to save my dogs 😂 maybe some day tho lol just more curious on how long they last im sure if you dont totally beat on it itll fine/last but also have heard they last about half the life of a normal synchronize transmission guess we'll see haha

    Bit clunky and oldschool compared to current trans swaps.
    8hp trans is what everyones swapping to now. Smooth fast and holds power. Can be driven with a clutch too!
