Final Drive tried and tested

Tried out Bro Sam's car today which has the final drive installed together with auto exe racing clutch and flywheel. I must say the acceleration is VERY much improved from stock. The car just pulls so much faster in the initial revs. For a while i had the feeling i was in a totally different car. Although its still not in FI territory but i think this is a must have mod for all NA enthusiasts. Cruising at 100 is abt 3500 so i think not that much different from stock.

The racing clutch also quite fun, my first time driving one, so stalled a few times due to the narrower biting point. But once in motion, its shiok to drive, just throw all the clutch u want..

Im quite set on getting this mod but i think i will wait for my clutch to wear out first den change the final drive with the clutch. Its quite a bit of difference, i felt it damn strongly when i got back into my own car

How involved is the installtion of the final gear? This is high on my mod priority list since I'm staying all motor.

correction, its a sports clutch only.

Racing clutch feels entirely different.

Racing clutch is hard, not really advisable if u need to park your car on those multi level carpark & it do not last that long, performance is better as compare to those softer sport clutch, there e trade off , see what u want.
