Hey! About shortening the final drive, can it be done on stock nd2 with stock lsd ? Might upgrade to a Cusco later on, but for now, it would be fun to already install a 3.45 final drive from an automatic ND... Do you know if this can be done, and if anything else would need to be changed ?
@@miner4236 hey! You need to match the gearing with the correct diff made for that gearing otherwise you will need a custom made spacer to get correct gear mesh.
@@pureroadster59 how does it feel ? Tried non-stock oil but below like 12°C it's literally impossible to switch gear... Why are you not using the mazda one ("Long Life Oil IS" or whatever it's called) ?
@@senfing very happy with it. There is somerattle when cruising in 6th but minimal compared to the CAE. I would only get the CAE if you are building a track car.
@@pureroadster59 Do you think a rubber gasket and some nylon washers would fix the rattle with the CAE? I feel like if you remove the metal to metal contact the rattle will go away.

@@pureroadster59 aren't you worried about the gearbox ? 220hp~ + short shifter might be harsh
@@miner4236 yes, I am also upgrading to a v5 gearbox but still worried.
Would you get the Walter motorsports gearbox? It is about 8 K landed to Aus
@@jigglerish Only if i blew the two gearboxes i have! but for 8k id probably look at a sequential for 10k.
