Lets talk Manual gear ratios

[mfbamba]

Yes they do, they provide either synchro engagement or dog engagement.

From the link above which one is the synchro engagement? The one for $11000?

edit I'll read through and get more info about them.

edit again: I am confused now Jonson. Admittedly I know next to nothing about this stuff but I am looking around since I broke the diff.

 

[ConnerS]

I might inquire about them and get some more info on them.

Arent they a bit overkill for the sort of power people are making out of vr4s?

 

[AKKO]

So... who else has done this and which are the desired first/second gearset part numbers?

Don't really won't the other gear ratios to change from what they are so that should narrow it down some. ;-)

hey, I'm just wondering, would any Evo 5speed gearbox fit on our Vr4? Because I'm having problem finding parts for the gearbox bearings, snycro etc... I have a 1999 Galant Vr4 without the AYC. Can someone help me please with this as I would like to get my car back on the road.

The internal components can be interchanged. Also if you message me what you're wanting we can supply everything you need.

Okay thanks, I will look into it.

Alright. I've now had the car to drive for a little while, I can give my opinion.

5th gear is much better on the freeway, the car is slightly less responsive. In the great state of Victoria, this is a good thing. It means you're not suddenly in the boost range, and doing 160km/h because you looked too hard at the accelerator pedal.
Overtaking or engine braking requires a shift down to 4th. Around town, 5th is above 75km/h only, less than that, stay in 4th.

Can't comment yet on fuel economy. That will take a few tanks to settle, but the car is much more relaxed at 100-110km/h.

What did You end up doing to your car and how much did it set You back

 

[Grey_Ghost]

I had the Evo 0.720:1 5th gear fitted as part of my gearbox overhaul.

Total through Techsport was $1200, but that was with the box already out of the car, and the box was significantly hammered.

Any idea where to get a 1st and 2nd Evo gear from in Australia and any idea how much

Your not going to swap 1st and 2nd too?? From what I understand they are the more important ones to change

sure gav, definitely i will swap the 1st and 2nd gear, but another forum said the stock cn9a 5th gear has the same with stock vr4. so made me confused. i am hybriding the td03 and use 262 cam from adam, so i think it will no problem with lower evo 5th gear rasio on vr4. BTW what bradc mean with Evo A and Evo B stock gear set?

Evo 4-6 use a and 7-9 use b i believe. Or something like that

 

[ersanalamin]

Evo 4-7 use a and 8-9 use b i believe. Or something like that

cheers, thanks bud

 

[ersanalamin]

It's either 4-6 or 4-7 and for ratio A

Yes Gav, I am reading again bradc first posting and reading this http://mark.cb.spb.ru/pub/MMC_Evolution/Evo_Transmission_Information.pdf give me some enlightenment now i am understand. well maybe stock VR4 has bigger ratio on 1st and 2nd gearset than evo because vr4 heavier that evo 4-9 turns out evo competition gearset also has more close and bigger gearset ratio than their stock. CMIIW 1st, 2nd and 5th gearset swap on vr4 recommended only for vr4 with modified engine so we can not loose acceleration

greetings.
Why not mate a evo gearbox to a 6a13?
with some adapter plates...wondering if it would be easier....

Easier to just put the Evo gear set into the vr4 casting
