Gearstar, an electronic transmission manufacturer out of Akron, Ohio, is among the best in the performance aftermarket. Be it drag racing, open tracking, autocrossing or just daily driving, Gearstar’s transmissions can handle it all. To prove it’s muscle in the industry, Gearstar is currently offering their HGM Compushift stand alone electronic controller at a discounted rate to match ANY purchase of an electronically controlled transmission from their lineup.
Gearstar owner Zack Farah comes to the transmission business with over 25 years of manufacturing experience. Farah’s career as a business owner can actually be traced back to his earliest beginnings with Tristar International, during a time when the manufacturer was building some 100 transmissions and some 300 converters on a daily basis.
While there was no shadow of a doubt that mass production was one of Tristar’s strong points, Farah was interested in the high performance side of transmission building. Farah’s vision has transcended that thought process with top-performing automatics.
While working for Tristar, Farah saw a need for a company that specialized in building customer-ordered, performance transmissions. During the time that he worked for Tristar, most of the high-performance transmissions that were available on the market were made by “off-the-shelf” manufacturers, but Farah’s idea was to start that transmission place that would treat each unit with individual care.
This included not only building each unit to customer specifications, Gearstar would further improve the performance transmission industry by seeing to it that each transmission was built by one, individual builder. What’s more, each converter is also custom built and stalled by an expert who is part of Gearstar’s “dream team.”
Everyone who works for Gearstar is exactly that. Farah has built Gearstar around his very best employees who he hand picked to accelerate the passion.
For this reason, each electronic transmission built by Gearstar is done with the kind of care and precision that you would expect from a fellow motoring enthusiast. It’s more than just processing an order, it’s an unmatched quality you can’t find anywhere else.
This kind of dedication is put into Gearstar’s work, but it never undermines Farah’s concrete experience in the business, along with his cutting-edge knowledge of the building process.
To assure a complete customer-brand loyalty, Gearstar is currently running one of the best package transmission deals in the industry. Currently, Gearstar is offering a free HGM Compushift stand alone electronic controller for $650.00 with the purchase of any of its electronic transmission and converter packages and this, according to Gearstar, is a $500 discount. Speed will always cost money but with Gearstar’s experience and attention to detail, it’s money well spent in terms of building your next high performance transmission.
