The point is that I don't think you can fit a 37T pinion with a 92T spur. I can check when I get home tonight. I run pinions in the 50T range with a 92T spur and the motor is a bit to the left of center with that setup. If you want to get the FDR you're after, you're probably going to have to go with a bigger spur, 100+ like I said.

I still use this spur/pinion guide even if it was for the 2012. this isn't mine, got this from another user at the t3 12 thread a long time ago.
the FDRs highlighted in blue and white indicates the possible spur and pinion combination.
HTH.
Any news on the conversion from the '14 to the '15?

I did this a while ago and for the original T4, be carefull when going anywhere near the bottom of the gear chart as the motor can be very close to the topdeck. Best to stick near the middle of each column if you can.

For documentation sake, I want to add that some motors hit the top deck even in the middle of the range. An example of this is the Novak Ballistic which we use for VTA in 25.5. The motor screws have large square heads and if you install the motor with the solder tabs on top, one of the screws will be in the way of the top deck.
Easy way around this is to rotate the motor by one mounting screw hole in either direction, it's just... annoying

No matter what, the huge gear chart that Xray supply with their kits is total arse gravy.

Can someone please expain the difference in running different length ECS's, and under what conditions whould you run each length. So Xray makes both 50mm and 52mm ecs's, how do you choose which ecs to run. I've always run 50mm

Longer drive shafts (52mm) make the car easier to drive because they
give more traction and better stability, mainly in chicanes. However, the
car will understeer more than with shorter (50mm) shafts which give a lot
of steering and impart aggression to the car.
Both left & right shafts should ALWAYS be the same length at one end of
the car (front or rear).
52mm shafts are recommended for carpet and large asphalt tracks.
50mm shafts are recommended for small-medium tight asphalt tracks.
