yeah should definitely be different pez. And I'm hoping it will make a bit of a difference as the closer ratios will hopefully keep it on boost where sometimes I'm sort of stuck between 2nd or 3rd (2nd all sideways and 3rd all lag).

that's the plan anyway, we shall see

With regards to your standard gearboxes, drop Marty (Gonzo12c) a PM as he's on about putting an RB into his zed

Good luck with the OSG Christian. Just changed a box on a 32 GTR with 550ish bhp that had stripped 3rd gear just on the road, so you definitely need it.

You doing my Dealer Day this year to 'run' the new box in lol.

Cheers Pabs, let me know if you are interested. One needs a build and the other is fine, but very noisy.

Cheers Eddy, yes I've always been borderline but done ok, but this is a worthwhile upgrade.

When is the dealer day? I'm up for it, see if I can have a more successful day this year... :D

Just a quick question or three chief, when you were running your zed did you have aftermarket engine mounts fitted or were you using OEM (and what are you using now with the GTR)?

If they were after market were they poly/nylon or solid mounts?

and finally did you notice an increase/decrease in vibration transfer and vagueness in gear change whilst under load?
