micky boy Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Very good work luke 10 out of 10 from me you have realy got me thinking of going 6, speed im not botherd about top end i love the acceleration facter If i did go 6,speed could i use my 5,speed drive shafts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukEp Posted January 28, 2010 Author Share Posted January 28, 2010 yeh micky the shaft for the auto and maunal are the same and the shafts i got with the 6speed box were the same as my auto ones, but the 6speed shaft didnt have the abs rings on them so i just used my auto ones if ya get me!.If your going from manual 5 to manual 6 you dont need to do half as much work as i did, it'll be as simple as swaping boxes and then swaping out the gear shifter/cables. Theres a few g6's being broken on fleebay atm to. I would recomend it, the acceleration is emence even on standard boost but at 70 in 6th the engines revving just over 3k not sure what its like in a 5speed like but the final drives are different so can only guess it will be less.auto1st : 3.6432nd : 2.0083rd : 1.2964th : 0.8925th : - Reverse : 2.977Counter gear ratio : unconfirmedDifferential gear ratio : 2.821manual 51st : 3.1662nd : 1.9043rd : 1.3924th : 1.0315th : 0.815Reverse : 3.250Differential gear ratio : 3.722manual 6 1st : 3.1662nd : 1.9043rd : 1.2334th : 0.9695th : 0.8156th : 0.682Reverse : 3.250Differential gear ratio : 4.526 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Thanks for the info luke much appreciated So all i need to put the 6,speed box on is shifter/cables? I've never had a look on fleebay i shall have a gander also i think at 70 my 5,speed is at about 3k im not sure though i shall check Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I heard it makes no difference if sat at 70mph on a motorway to a five speed.Awsome work though mate must feel a bit alien using a clutch in that car now Should be awsome when you get here at 1 bar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukEp Posted January 28, 2010 Author Share Posted January 28, 2010 I heard it makes no difference if sat at 70mph on a motorway to a five speed.Awsome work though mate must feel a bit alien using a clutch in that car now Should be awsome when you get here at 1 bar yep really alien, I've tried putting it in gear so many times without depressing the clutch I've lost count this morning I actually got it in reverse and it stalled so I sat there scratching my head for a few seconds then it clicked "oh shit yeh, there's a clutch"thanks for the kind comments guy really makes worth while.
