WTB: G series reinforcement plate

[ChillinZX]

From what I hear 'ferdi' no longer makes reinforcement plates. So this is a long shot to see if anyone here has a plate available that fits a 2000 626 KL G25M transmission. I've tried to contact PAR about billet cups but I get no answer. MFactory wants a large batch order first before making them. I am stuck at 350hp without options left.

theres a rip off artist ( in terms of stealing other peoples designs ) that makes parts for the BJ chassis. can't remember the company offhand. but i know he stole ferdi's plate design & reproduced it under his own name. pretty sure they are still made

If it's the same guy on Facebook then he is here in AZ local to me. I never knew he stole ferdi's plate design.

[FE3-323]

the guy is on FB yeah... and yup. stole his design.

[ChillinZX]

Does it still work the same? I'd hate to buy a rip-off design for moral reasons, but if it's my only choice I must go with it. How do I contact this mystery person?

*EDIT* I found a place called Hydra Motorsports, is that it?

Didn't ferdi also weld a plate to the front of the gear box to help with strengthening the transmission to?

*Ferdi, your mailbox is full so I couldn't reply to your PM.*

[FE3-323]

I gave ferdi more PM space. and also let him know you were trying to reach him. you can reply to him now^^

Thanks! Apparently he had one left that someone backed out on. Seems I am running out of time on getting custom parts together for my project, some years ago all this stuff was readily available: reinforcement plates, importperformanceparts.net, your traction bars... ugh!

Did anyone make a reinforcement plate for an F series? I've had this happen twice now at rallies - when accelerating the engine simply revs out and i lose all drive. It's as if the gears are no longer directly attached to the wheels. Seems like a cause of the case shifting? I'm also looking to put a trans cooler on it. Did anyone ever make an AWD F series reinforcement plate? Thanks for any help!
