G-Force ratio?

[coolbet13]

Broke my 7th T-5 today and im sick of it.... For those of you that have G-forces what ratios do you have? and is there any cheaper place to get the gear set I can install it myself.

Re: G-Force ratio?

These are their synchronized ratios.
2.94, 1.94, 1.34, 1.00, and .59 or .73 5th gear

You'd probably want a .59 5th since you're probably gonna need 4.56 gears.

Re: G-Force ratio?

so I'm gonna have to get a different rear gear to make up for the trans differences? 4.11 or 4.56 which would be better? think I remember hearing something about the speed doesn't work with the g-force whats that about?

Re: G-Force ratio?

if you're staying n/a I would definitely go 4.56. on the g-force website it says a speedo provision is only available for the GF-5R. Talk to Guardiannknight. He has a g-force.

So these gears are higher (slower off the line) than stock tranny gears?

Re: G-Force ratio?

yeah, stock t5 is 3.75, 2.19, 1.41, 1.00, 0.72.

Re: G-Force ratio?

what? I thought they where 3.50, 2.14, 1.36, 1.0, .78? Maybe Guardiannknight will chime in and let me know about this..

Re: G-Force ratio?

So, does anyone (who understands this ratio stuff better than me) know why they would put higher gears in there?

[bigbrian442]

Re: G-Force ratio?

Because they are geared for V8 drag cars.

Re: G-Force ratio?

would also be great for guys with turbos that want a 5-speed.

Re: G-Force ratio?

you have 2 options with the speedo and G-force build.

The worm gear reader needs to be relocated by drilling a new hole (needs to be nearly perfectly drilled) into the sid of the tranny.

second you could hook up your speedo to the driverside wheel sensor. This means you'll loos ABS.

Sorry 3 options: You could just do without a speedo.

Re: G-Force ratio?

I do CNC milling so drilling a hole is not a problem, however what do you think about cryo treating the stock t-5 gears any use?
