Short gears

[Papalazarou]

Hi Kidz,

I'm thinking of getting shorter gear ratios and wanted to know if there is someone in the UK that can get the bits and do the work and more importantly knows what they are doing.
Or, do I have to send the gearbox to the states, which seems a bit crazy?

It's a two birds with one stone thing really, because second gear synchro's a bit snicky in second when cold.

Cheers,

James.

P.s, I'm pretty sure I'm running non-JDM gearing as I'm hitting a hyperthetical 140mph in fourth at 8K.

James, just a thought, but was this before or after the new bigger alloys as this could impact your results and decision going forward.

Hi James,

If you do find someone let me know as I'm weighing up options for upgrades.

Hi Paul,
the rolloing radius is identical to the oem size, so it's really the second gear issue and the keeping it in V-tech thing.

I only hit hyperthetical 130mph in fourth at 8K :cry: :wink:
