So, the straight cut is not a thing anymore ? and it's only 4.785 ratio ? cause i would like a 4.9/5 ratio in straight, and you say it was a thing back then
(Juste wondering)
useless info

So when can I buy and when will it be delivered? The 4.78 helical will do me fine and I'm pretty keen to get my hands on it.

Who is actually doing the job and where are they located?

next week he promised the videos, the guys located in south africa. i know this has been a long process, but wait a little longer please...

4.785 Final Drive Ratio by Justin Towers, on Flickr

He is in a Corolla AE101 with full interior. he says you cannot hear any gear whining once he is at full throttle above 4,000 rpm. his short ram intake and 63mm exhaust overpower the noise coming from the transmission

Ok, I'm still in.
i'll more than likely buy the ring and pinion and then save it in the garage until i decide to install it for the sake of the group buy. since i started this....

Oh my bad, for me it was all set with the 4.75 ratio redface.gif
Cause if i follow this, it's because i'm ****ing hell interesting !! biggrin.gif
But if possible i would like more a 4.9 ratio but 4.75 could be good too, depend on how much max speed it will do
when the time come to actually buy. i will talk to guy in south africa about your 4.9 ratio request.

OEM final drives are full helical. These provide almost noise-free operation, but also are the least efficient (i.e most parasitic drivetrain loss)

Straight Cut final drives are the reverse. These are the loudest in operation, but are the most efficient (i.e least parasitic drivetrain loss)

And can we get a full Straight cut ? Cause tbh, to see how much my car is loud, having a full straight cut could be fun biggrin.gif

And thx in advance for the 4.9 ! smile.gif

Someone saved the link to know how much max speed it will do with a 4.785 ratio on our gearbox ? Would be appreciate smile.gif

After reflexion, forget the 4.9 ratio, i will take the 4.785 too smile.gif
bump. i edited the first page. so it might be bad or good news depending on how you use your vehicle.

cool.

What does the 5th Gear top out at then with this?
I can imagine switching to the S51 5th with this would be a good idea

>on a side note. C and S Series Transmission share the same differential. so the ring size must be the same. mfactory offers 4.785, 4.92 and 5.15 ratios for the AE92 C52 transmission.


I just called and confirmed that all those 3 different ratios for the c52 transmission are helical cut from mfactory. So thats good news for us and those that strictly want a helical cut design so its not noisy.

Sound good so far for me biggrin.gif

How much longer you will wait before deciding to make the order ?
Just for knowing a date so i can take my holidays for installing the final drive smile.gif

Btw, thanks a lot Bonzai for your investiment toward us !!
