Default Anyone experience with GT racing gears?

I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with Guard transmission components.

I used Guard components when my 993 RSR transmission was rebuilt. The diff was beautifully made, very robust. Since I do not run in a stock class, I would absolutely use them for the sequential.

Guard is world class in terms of product and service.

Matt has excellent products and takes the time to discuss options with you before you buy. Perfect storm of quality and service.

++++++1 for Matt and GT

Best products and service, GT would not make it unless it was better!

and better pricing is just another added benefit.

Im pretty sure I heard a few teams ran his gears in the Daytona 24 this year.

6 cars, including TRG and Alex Job, not to mention the Bullet Racing car that flew our colors.

Obviously, I am baised since it's my product. However, I am going to quote a well known builder who has no ax to grind and just last Thursday took apart the gearbox that we ran in Bullet's car. And keep in mind that we lost our clutch in the 19th hour...

"It is in excellent condition. If you told me it had 3 hours on it I would believe it. Dogs and claw collars all look great. Gears do too. R&P is good too."
- Chris Cervelli

He's going to rebuild it for me for a PCA GTA racecar. I'll snap some pictures of the take out parts when I go back over to his place in a few days.

Regards,

Matt

Maybe I am biased as well but I can confidently say to you that you will be thrilled with the product quality and with the service you will get from Matt.

Like all Pro teams, we choose the products we run based solely on quality and service (and of course value)

I promise you, given the choice, we will always run Guard parts in our cars.
