G-Force strange rear setup ordered!

Just bit the bullet and called G-Force. Ordered their Strange setup with S-trac, axles and one piece driveshaft. I'm stoked! Now I won't be leery of making additional power for fear of breaking stuff. Also threw in a set of BMR trailing arms. I'm hoping to be track worthy in no time!

Anyone with experience using this setup feel free to post.

Thanks.
And thanks to G-Force!

Congrats! Great choice! I am very happy with my 9" setup. Nice to be able to beat on this with no worries of breaking.

Thanks! Yeah, I hear ya. I know I'm not making a boatload of hp however I still cringe when I jump in it. Will be nice to have that confidence!

Is your trans stock? I'm guessing this will be my weak link now. Any idea how capable the m6 is?

Ive been well over 700whp and wtq for a long time on the stock M6. Only part of my driveline that istock and it seem to be holding up well. I will be 1100 or so rwhp in a month so i'll see how long it lasts.

Love my GForce btw! Good decision!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm over 630rwhp with a stock m6. I have not had a chance to run this new supercharger at the track like I wanted to. 1st pass down the strip, I smoked the 800ftlb textralia clutch and slave cylinder at half track. New clutch is in and will try again this spring. But I do plan on pulling the trans and getting it built, it is the last weak link.

I feel a little better now! (And so does my pocket)
Should be fine for me for quite a while then, as long as I stay where I am that is.

Thanks for the responses.

Congrats Jpb972, after reading reviews on G-force's 9" kit, looks like you will love the kit as much as I'll love mine once I receive the kit... Am Finishing up kit details with Chris and I'll be right behind you inline waiting for mine
Man I got fed up of fixing parts of my stock rear every time I step on the gas peddle :P
After installing the G-force 9" rear end in my camaro, I know it'll be bullet proof
Again bro, congrats

That's awesome! Our 9" is right at home either on the track or the highway on road trips.

Thanks
