Looking for some gearing help on my TC5. I run stock rubber with a LRP Sphere TC and LRP 11x 13.5. I run on a 75x55 track and was hoping someone could help me get this thing geared. I ran an 87 spur and 27 pinion but it felt like it could use more gear. Any help would be appreciated.

I got the belt from microtech in the uk its for the Yok bd like you say they only had one in stock.

I recon I could put it on Ebay and get £ for it lol

Just hope that AE bring out one that is the same the car feels so different now has freed it up loads and those that say it wont make much of a differance it does, parts are not running so tight.

I have a question regarding the camber link position. What is the effect when i change this from inside to outside? Actually the turnbuckles in the front are so long, that even when i screw the ballcups completely in (that hurts ), they are way to long. Has anyone else had this issue? Thx

Make sure you didn't mix up the steering tie-rods with the camber link rods. They are both different sizes.

I'm running the same setup on Sphere comp. I found around 5.2 to 1 is a good spot. Right now I'm at 30/78 to get there. You definately need more then you have. Check temps as well, the sintered rotor will drop your temps 8-10 degs. also. Highly recomended option.
