Precision transmission building
Not just installation.
At Whoopee Doo Racing there is no such thing as a simple part installation. Whether it's an all out race build or a simple bearing replacement, every transmission gets the same service.

Perfect Precision.
19 years of building Honda transmissions and countless time spent on R&D has allowed me to find the best clearances to use for different setups and types of racing. Every builder either gets the clearances within the OEM tolerance or they have a specific clearance within those tolerances they use, choose wisely. These clearances are precisely and meticulously set on every transmission. This has allowed my customers to realize a remarkable and uncommonly low failure rate.
Supreme knowledge.
With invaluable data and feedback from customers and my own firsthand experience unrivaled by any other transmission expert I can help you choose the best performing transmission components for your particular setup and type(s) of driving. That can be tailored all the way down to the LSD settings when using a clutch type LSD.
Since every transmission build will require different parts to be replaced on top of any performance upgrades, please contact me so we can discuss the particulars of your build. Once we confirm the setup I'll be building for you I will send you a customized invoice for the build that can be paid just like you were shopping in my online store. Since it isn't available in the store, the labor rate for a build starts at $500. Any treatments, coatings, machine work or fabrication is not included with the labor rate.
Most FWD transmissions can be shipped via standard ground. International shipping is available. If you don't have a transmission to send in, I can usually source one. No core exchanges are required.
