AA60 t50 vs AE86 t50

Postby AE85.6 » Tue Feb 21, 2006 8:50 pm

just wandering if the ratios are the same or whether the AA60 one was geared with 13s instead of 14s or something like that ?

or do they have a different size gear on the speedo drive or something as they read like 20kph different ?

cheers

Identical ratios in the gearbox.
The speedo gear on the output shaft depends on the diff ratio of the original car the gearbox was fitted to. Off the top of my head the AA60 had a 3.9:1 ratio (code T312) diff... the AE86 came out of the factory with either 4.1:1 (code T292) or 4.3:1 ratio (code T282). Factory tyres where the same diameter as far as I remember (don't quote me on that!).

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

ah ha i see, cause the extra gearbox was ex a carina, however it had no speedo drive so i used an 86 one, which has made it read approx 20kph low, easy way to remedy ?
