as you put it, yes the stock euro gearing is horribly wrong
of the 6speed boxes we have the shortest 1st and longest 2-6th gears and also the highest final drive? gearing giving us a maximum calculated speed of 195mph?
the gap between 1st and 2nd is so horrible that it is almost impossible to get reasonable performance out of the car, and that is also one of the reasons that I messed up the 2nd gear syncro?
but anyway the ep3 ctr is the 2001-2005 civic type-R.
so we have
stock vs ctr
1st 3.533 vs 3.266
2nd 1.88 vs 2.13
3rd 1.355 vs 1.517
4th 1.028 vs 1.147
5th 0.825 vs 0.921
6th 0.659 keeping that one for highway cruising.
and final drive
4.389 vs 4.764
after maximum speed will change accordingly.(my rev limit is raised to 7600rpm)
stock vs new gearing
1st 36.42mph vs 36.33mph
2nd 68.45mph vs 55.71mph
3rd 95.04mph vs 78.22mph
4th 125.18mph vs 103.45mph
5th 155.98mph vs 128.83mph
6th 195.27 vs 180.05mph
so you see the gearing will be much tighter.
I canŽt wait to check it out
