I asked this in the sakura zero s tread but id like to see what some of you say .
Gearing for 25.5 vta ,so far I've heard with the vertical motor mount a can fit a 83t spur (smallest )and 40t pinion in 64 pitch ..does this sound right ?
What are you running? Thanks
I run anywhere between a 3.32 fdr to a 3.66. I don't know what the internal ratio of your car is but my tc5 is a 2.0. So I run 88/53 or an 88/48. But starting with a 4.0 is a good start until you can see how your temps are. Start going down teeth on the spur and up on pinion tooth until your temps are between 140 and 150 degrees.
