at work today i was under a 2.1(water cooled) t25 van,and it has a 5 speed,it looks huge but would it be worth trying to fit it?
just a thought.

The T25 5 speed is a very long and for the size, not strong gearbox. Plus it has the shifter at the side of the box instead of at the nose cone.
The shift pattern on the 5 speed T25 is also a dogleg 1rst (same as 901).
The early 4 speed T25 gearboxes are supposed to be good for over 200bhp but the 5 speeds have a weakness because of the extra long pinion and main shaft to accomodate the extra gears.

fair enough,just thought i would ask.might have been a esay why to 5 speed.just have to go porcshe i guess.how do you tell if a porcshe box has a lsd in it?as that is of more use to me than 5 speed.
cheers rob
