You'll need a manual version for that mod.

how do you compare with the stock one ,compare in the rev climb and drop?

The Final Drive is a CL7 J's Racing one. The rev climb is faster obviously, and revs quite fast to the redline when flooring it compared to a stock. The revs also drop faster, but maybe not as fast as I thought it would. And top speed in each gear (noticable on 1st/2nd gear - I don't redline in 3rd!) is reduced slightly due to larger final drive.

^^ that sounds awesome - I have always thought a light fly with reduced final drive would be great. So what speed does 2nd gear top out now? Stock is way too high (around 105kph).

**Cranial** · 20-09-2007 09:42 AM

Well, I know in 1st used to be around 60kph, now 1st goes to like 53-55kph. 2nd gear, close to 100kph but I haven't really redlined it too much and stared at the speedo to notice properly. ^^

A lower final would be good but I dont want to lower sixth for cruising.

So who has made an order an Jtune so far? Dont be shy!

**Merlin086** · 20-09-2007 10:42 AM

I reckon I'll take the plunge...

.......wait a bit closer to runout date for the whole package, as a 10 week wait is more than likely I'd expect.

I'll think I'll just hang on to my dollars for a few more weeks yet.

Im thinking ill go for it to, not 100% sure yet, got a while to decide though

I'm thinking about it, but i've got a 06 Auto, with 4 years of warrenty left, so i don't know what the impact will be on the warrenty?
but i'm considering voiding it.

I think the rev droping does has to do with the flywheel but it is a nice combination to change with higher FD.

Have you ever try to get the top speed for the 5.1 FD? I was thinking to get 4.7 FD since I got to replace my clutch again.

You'll have plenty of time to think about it cause like me you have an 06 so we'll have to wait even longer as the reflash is for 03-05 only.

The 06 manual reflash I have been assured will be ready by the time the hardware is here, only a few extra dash lights to modify for apparently.......dunno about the auto though?

You're right.It'll be ready(man.version) 6-10 weeks after the group buy closes(14th.Oct.).I read it wrong.
