Technical where to buy sporting gearbox longer 5th gear and LSD?
lol i know that! i did 105 (cento speedo so prob 95) by mistake at no where near full throttle while over taking a lorry that for some reason was on this otherwise empty test track. car never even felt strained just VERY smooth. that was at just under .5bar
raising the overall gearing (slightly) might not be hard if you can inspect a few panda boxes. 2 of them have a final reduction of 15/56. our normal sporting have 15/58.. not sure how much of an overall even minus 2 teeth on the diff would have.
panda:
4385751 RAPP 57/14 M4 01 M03
5959970 RAPP 58/15 M5 C8568 01 M03
5938408 RAPP 56/15 M5 D8568 01 M03
5959970 RAPP 58/15 M6 ,M11 C9764 01 M03
5938408 RAPP 56/15 M6 ,M11 D9764 01 M03
5996995 RAPP 55/13 M1 ,M2 ,M3 ,M4 +005 01
71718911 RAPP 58/15 005(M5 ,M6 ,M7 ,M10 ,M11 )

haha oops i had a feeling i read 1108 on eper. but found it hard to see it would be a 60 as the FI 1108 puts out 55HP do said 1242.... guess its got no cat and all that
Mind you, easiest way to raise overall is to fit 15" wheels.
Aaron (J333EVO) posted a pic -- I think of Blue's speedo -- (you'll find similar on uTube) with the speedo way past 120, I think Martin's car was GPSed at 132 recently. Both have 14" wheels which cuts out the optimism a little. Both 1100 hi-boost tubs.

mine as an SPI 1242 with 13's bounced off the limiter in 5th, which was indicated off the end of the clock
So the fizz pulled me for driving too slowly on the M6, their opening gambit reassured me they were gonna die in front of judge...
'We have never pulled any one for driving too slowly in one of these before'
ans
'but officer I always drive very carefully'
The 'Gestapo' scan forums like this, stoppit...

no its the number of teeth on the diff and pinion
Hi Craig
You can use a calculator if you want but that is the ratio difference between the two finals, the actual speed at 5800 or 5600 would be dependent on rolling radius of the rubber wear, and the 5th gear reduction/multiplication.
Dont know if your cinq box is different from the sei, probably in FAQ.
Mine is pretty noisy, it was on sewing machine oil for 4k miles, given up worrying...

in terms of 5th gear iirc 5th on an SPI box is 1:0.83 which is right on the money for 41/34, so I think you've got a stock SPI 5th gear
Hi Criag
The Sei sporting is 15/58 final - 3.867
The Sei Suite is 16/57 final - 3.562
The suites 4th gear is .974 which means it is comparable with the sporting 5th after you allow for the higher final, so if you have a tweaked engine it may pull the suites very long 5th which is only otherwise useful down hill...
But swapping the finals should be simple, and you would have the close ratio box still.

What are you after? A longer 5th gear or a LSD?
If its an LSD then go to Quaife or Bacci
If its an LSD then go to Quaife or Bacci
LSD. Have done - None in stock. 3 month lead time.
Even Bacci? The dealings I've had with them were great, gears were made to order
