OFFICIAL transmission, LSD, gears, final drive, gearbox upgrade thread!!


great information :)
i was wonderin could you get a 6 speed box fitted in a ek9 without costing an arm and leg.
its just that when you change the final drive the distance between the gears remains the same with regards to how much the revs drop when you shift. so if you had closer gears with a longish final drive plus a 6 speed would be mad fast if the revs kept above 7k shifting at 9k. cos my ek9 feels so strong till you change gear and the revs drop.
i could be completely wrong though:)
 
i was going to add your parts to the thread but there is a minor bug right now and im not able to update this thread, i have not been able to add the magnus motorsports information either :angry2:

awsome thread blinx keep up the good werk ......my question is how accurate is that gearing calculator>? and whatsyour input on adding a 4.928 final to my gsr as well as a oem lsd?
 
The gearing calculator is accurate for what it is (there are many variables when driving on the road that will affect the results slightly), and gives you a good indication of what is possible.

thank you :nice: 4.928 is not a bad idea, it would be a bit shorter then factory b16a/b16b gearing which should be fun for an NA car. Long drives on the fwy may be a bit louds, just keep to the speed limit and you should be fine though...
 
So what kind wud u be pulling the same topspeed as a standard car, but get there much faster???
 
Your top speed will decrease in each gear, but you will reach the achievable top speed quicker :)

if your asking about my car and the fact that its turbocharged then yes, my top speed is the same i just get there a lot faster, if your asking about the 4.928 FD then MFacotry is correct :nice:
 
OS Giken stuff anyone? Some of the best trans gear I've ever encountered. Diff is amazing, Single Stage clutch kit is track only but its sooooo nice.
