Brake-in procedure for New Gears

Maybe not everybody know this but after the gear swap job you need to pre-heat the gears just like the new rotors. Here is how to do that:

  • First time you drive the car, only drive it about 15 minutes or so; DON'T accelerate hard or drive exremely fast
  • Stop the car and let the gears cool off for about 2-3 hours, unless its very cold outside then matbe a little less
  • Then Drive again for about 30 minutes or so, no hard acceleration or fast driving speeds, and let the gears cool off again
  • Then the last time drive the car about 45 minutes or so, no hard acceleration or fast driving, you get the picture, then for the last time let the gears cool.
After that give the gears HELL. If you don't do this break your gears may decide to wine.

For everyone else who plans on this mod it doesn't hurt to do it! if you can be calm enough to keep your foot out of the floorboard trying to test your new mod.
