Mario I'm still use the 17 dr pulley sliders on original variator. Thinking to try: 1 new variator, like J costa or malossi! 2 the new bred suggestion: 24x18 6 sliders but at the moment I don't know the right weight 19-17 grams?? About jcosta I like to know just using 12,5 grams pins how will be the...

thank you very much Bred (thanks for the photo too, it's really nice)

thank you very much Mario, for everything you share with us, you are very generous like Bred.

Robert: the 24x18 sliders are probably going to be best for reducing rpm at top end... I think they'll be better for touring or commuting as opposed to drag racing or just raw acceleration. I might be wrong on that since all I've tested so far is 20G 2418 sliders.... I'm running identical mixed wei...

I'm telling you, if you want performance, lighter is better. My Malossi variator shipped with 12g weights for a reason.

what do you think about malossi variator for honda forza 300?

Did you try the J costa variator?

For my forza 300 I 'd like to try sliding rollers 15 grams at place of 17 grams
What do you think?
thank you
Robert

Mario very nice your forza.
Why didn't you choose the Autisia variator Mario?

Robert

it's a shame didn't know how much gain in performance had to change airfilter with DNA....

why not 17 grams?

Bred what do you think about:
flyng tech pulley are better than dr pulley?
and autisia variator is better than j costa? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHwyB9ZZxys

I want to know how is the time 0-100 km with these set up: 1 Mario set up: 16g Dr,Pulley sliders / DNA firfilter / TechPulley x2 clutch - black CS springs - white PS springs 2 Bred set up : 3x20 grams Dr Pulley and 3x16 grams rollers .Vulcandanny (in this topic)............ 6 x17 grams dr pulley 0-1...

hi bred how are you? after long time I see you again.
Mario tested what you suggested mix rollers- sliders with bad results!! why??
May be this is the reason why he decided to test other solutions...
Robert

ciao mario
16 dr pulley? why you change?
Did you find difference in the new air filter?

Robert

mario 18 years old .....without cosmetic sourgery ;.)
Mario remember bardhal oil next time.. waiting for your air filter test
r

what you need to open the variator 14 ? , and the torque is 84 to close? I have to change rollers

beautiful!

mario, this is what the Autisia responsable said to me by email:
I must inform you that we have not yet this variator ready. We are finishing the bell mold. As soon as it will be ready we will update on the website.......

Mario
so the 18 g dr pulley + new clutch is much better ( more responsive) that 18 g dr pulley and original clutch. 0-100 is less than 10 seconds?
Next step will be the air filter.....
What I m thinking is if change variator with Autisa could give the same result...
