VRmonster 1 Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 just wondering the best place i can source a 3.94 final drive, ring and pinion, and a 0.75 5th gear set or 5th from a golf tdi ? ive been told that, to buy these new would cost an arm and a leg. and i need to be able to clutch/brake and shift/steer. lol. so i need my arms and legs. im hoping to have these by wed/thurs, so any ideas?

FishWick 21 Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Out of a Passat gearbox. PhatVR6 knows for sure..... Yeah gears from VW are £120 each but the diff is about £200 or thereabouts... Link to post Share on other sites
VRmonster 1 Posted April 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 so i can get both from a passat gearbox? or just the final drive? and do i need a different differential (ha ha) to run this? or would standard or quaife do? Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Quaiffe replaces the standard planet gears, the VW diff wheel bolts on top of it :-) Yep you get you get the diff wheel from a passat (not sure which one tho, doh!) and I believe a 0.75 comes from a diesel or 4+E Golf gearbox....Ask Vince at Stealth, he is the gearbox man.... what he doesn't know about them isn't worth knowing.

PhatVR6 0 Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 yep, 3.94 final drive is only £200 from VAG, vince sometimes gets them second hand, but I think I bought his last one off him.i think TDI 5th is actually a 0.71. my 0.75 is a gemini ratio. Link to post Share on other sites
