Haha I don't need excuses ;) Lol nothing to blame you for mate :) Lets keep it simple and do a pitstop between 10 and 25 minuets and it'll be reeeet ;) Unless you're planning on driving and going slow which isn't what i'm expecting :rasp:

No worries mate :)

Renault Alex they are about £7 as Fred says totally critical I might have a spare in my box if you want me to add it to the package? Need to repack it lol

Haha :) The gearing i'm going with will work very well with more power! Just need to save up for it now lol ;)

LY V6 :hail:

39/31

I'm sure Mark told me he fitted the shorter 5th and in that case you have the 37/33. That is the shortest you can go, the other option is to swap the FD which gripper can provide in the new ratio's they are doing. Yeah it's all just trying to calculate weather or not to fit the shorter fifth or...

Haha no Morgan, Pete and I are joking about the quaife I sold him :)

Great minds think alike ;)

Yeah don't get me wrong Phil that's not the way I am going to do it as it brings with it too much potential for things going wrong as you say but the reasons they are doing it for will fundamentally help if they can make it reliable.

089 is what I was told the cup's have :)

If everything else is maximised (I'm not the person to say it is or isn't in this case) mate then the mods they are making will make it better without a doubt i'm afraid! I do agree though that I wouldn't do it at the cost of loosing seat time and unreliability. The kinematics of the suspension...

Increase not decrease on the FD mate :) All 5 gears in the 130 and the 089 are identical

DAMN!!! You've sussed us out :o

Yeah that was my thoughts, not sure I will ask Martin!

39/32 JC5-131 and a few others :) Are you swapping the FD and fifth on your gripper? It's the 4.29 at the moment isn't it?

Was not good mate :( Glad all got sorted but was such a waste of your time! Glad to hear you are happy with our dealings mate very kind of you to say :D Pmsl at only wanting one James ;)

Yes I agree but the only thing I am unsure of is the fifth gear now that I am set on the FD for the car, Changing fifth will give me 129MPH and my top speed this year has been 130 or a little more than this at Spa where I was well into fifth. I think for the slight compromise of the standard...

Sounds like a plan :)

Yes a good bit more i'm hoping :) I think std 5th is the safest bet probably

Yes its amazing what they can do, the main thing for me is just to make sure with the 130 top speed i'm not going to be bouncing off the limiter at any circuits if I am then I need to keep the std 5th gear and the limit will be 145mph it'll also save £65ish so not looking like a bad option :)

I see mate that makes sense! I will suck it and see, the reason I wanted to know is that if i'm hitting 130 this season and then it accelerates to 130 quicker next season then i'm going to need more than 130. Mmmm will have to get my thinking cap on and have another look at the data :) Thanks...

Right I see :) Let's say my car with engine X and the standard JC5-130 gearbox accelerates from 0-130 in 25 seconds Would my car with engine X and the 37/33 fifth gear with 13/60 final drive accelerate from 0-130 in more, less or the same time as the above? Still just trying to get my head...

Ahhh okay thanks for the explanation mate I understand now :)! So ideally I want the different 5th then but i'm not sure if 130mph will be enough. Am I right in saying my car will get to 130 quicker than a std F.D and std 5th would?

I was understanding it all until that haha! That confuses me but I kind of understand

It's still going to be above 6000rpm when I change into the std 5th isn't it? Should have plenty of go up at that rpm I'm thinking std 5th and keep the flexibility of big top speed

Thanks for that mate just the job :)! Still going to need 5th for craners with either then

Haha :) Thanks mate! Exactly the sump was made for it there ;) Yes exactly! Glad it was noticed now and not later so thanks :) P.S Just got off the phone and the gripper problem is sorted! It would need massively chopping about so just not worth it :( Its all sorted now though I got...

Unfortunately Mike the sensor boss is touching the subframe :(
