I bought the new Stage 4 MT-82 from Calimer Transmissions a few months ago and it’s finally going in.

Has anyone else bought this trans and installed it? Anything you do or don’t like about it?

How do you like it ? I have the stage 3 and I love it. What are the upgrades over the stage 3 ?

I just ordered the Calimer stage 2 MT 82 for my 2015 pp Mustang. Also, using a Mcleod RXT twin disc ceramic clutch with an aluminum flywheel.

The only thing I see that is different between the Stage 3 & 4 is the
  • HD Billet Main Shaft
Outside of this, I believe they are pretty much the same, including the gearing.

My car is front to back almost completely new underneath. I just got my break-in tune from Wengerd, and we are trying to start it on Sat. New motor, trans, clutch, fuel system, and turbo kit. Fingers crossed nothing breaks, and there aren't any leaks!!

Put a stage 3 in before winter, still in the break-in miles but like it so far!

I hope all goes well for you on Saturday. You’ve put a great deal of money and effort into to your build and now it’s almost time to wake her up.

Me too, I'll do the build thread later, but thanks to all the help on this forum so far, we are close to starting!!

Hope it works out for you.

Way too many mixed reviews out there for me to take the chance with a Calimer box.

Tentatively I plan to Tremec swap mine next year.

People that I know personally love theirs, but I figure if it doesn't work out then I'll plan for the same swap as you.

So far on initial break-in the transmission feels great, nice and solid shifts. I'll definitely update once I get some more miles on it and some actual drag strip time.
