anyone used a different 5th gear


Recommended Posts

I don't think it will make a great difference to be honest, may save a bit of fuel. I don't do many motorway miles, mainly B roads etc where I think it's in a different league to the ep's. I will be swapping 1st though for a GT one.

Should do 170ish on an altered box if you have the power to max the ratio. Ill dig the part number info all back off the laptop when i get a chance and drop em in this thread.

My box needs an overhaul again it doesn't appear to enjoy drag racing lol so I may have a gt gearset fitted In mine as the gearbox shop said it should be possible

It will work yeah, aslong as you keep the 85 final drive. Or find one from another C series box which matches the rear diff.

now price them if you can daniel ????i found a black cap box but it needs rebuild so i dont know if i can justify 200£ for a fucked gearbox i want to but ???

The parts guys in my work could price them up but i reckon they will be around 250-300 for the pair.
