black cap gearbox strength


Recommended Posts

C160's ain't light. I've got one here and it weights more than my early c52 and early c56.

The boxes are the same near enough, 1st to 4th are the same thickness gears just different ratios it's only 5th and 6th that are slightly narrower. The 5th (and 6th gear) end casing is bigger on the 160 to accommodate for the extra gear. But as there's more to it they weigh more.

The later six speeds on the 2zz engines seem to be stronger c60 and c62 I believe.

Just fuck the N/a box in and see how it goes lol.



So did early GT boxes come with black end cases then or not ? I mentioned this the other week and folk said that N/a boxes had them (which i know because my corolla has one)
