Hi all, I'm new here.
I have a 944 turbo with an LS1 engine and the turbo trans 0.829 5th gear is too short for my uses - mainly freeway driving.
A lot of the guys with V8 944's and the turbo trans like to swap in the taller NA 944 0.73 5th gear for freeway cruising, and a lot of the NA 944 guys like to swap in the shorter turbo 5th for better acceleration.
So it's a pretty good match.
However, I'd like to go one step further, I'd be interested in putting the tall 931 0.60 5th gear in my car.
Anyone want to swap 5th gears? Anyone have an 0.60 they want to get rid of? |

Well, after further research, it looks like the 0.60 5th gear is in the '80 924 turbo snail shell trans and I don't think it's swappable into the 944 turbo trans.
The 81-82 924 turbo has the same trans as the 944 NA, so they don't have the 0.60 5th gear.
So, never mind!  |
