soobme Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Has any one figured out a way to put 4.11's or 4.44's into a 5spd D/R tranny yet? I need to break more stubs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 someone in colorado figured it out, with the 4.11, but he seems pretty tight lipped about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I guess someone in Austrailia did it. There was a whole thread about 4.44 in a 5spd d/r. Now the forums are gone though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanislru Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I'm about to order 4.44 r+p's from rallitek $1200 cdn not including shipping. Ouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soobme Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 Is that for front & rear? Or just for the front? Any one know what the US$-to-CDN$ rate is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeEyedBandit Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Here is the conversion I just got. 1,200.00 CAD 1,016.02 USD Are you actually going to do it? Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I was under the impression that the 4.11 gears will fit with a small amount of work, but the 4.44's won't. just a heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soobme Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 4.11's would be FINE, just fine. Matt- Well.... If that price is for front & rear, then I'm thinking around $550 for a front R&P set. I could swing it in the not so distant future:brow: and convert to an R180 out back with 4.11's in it. BUT....if that price is for just the front:eek::eek: I'll have to keep serching for a cheeper way to do it. I want to put one of the Phantom Grip LSD's and 4.11's up front, and an R180 with solid stubs, welded diff. and 4.11's in the rear. That's the ideal set up IMO for what I want to do with the car.

Now the forums are gone though Not gone, just in the process of getting a new web supplier, old one went belly-up recently, so ausubaru/backyard boys should be back real soon, or so the note they have posted sez.

bratsrus1 Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Hey Guys This is Jerry, thats what i though about Brett BUT i got screwed by him no other way to put it or say it. He stole my money, if he was a good guy he would have sent the gears or sent me my money back. I also got an email from his neighbor and she didn't have any thing good to say about him and she lives next door to him. All i am saying is becarefull you might have the same thing happen to you. I don't care what anybody has to say about him, he screwed me ans thats the bottom line. Thanks Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soobme Posted October 8, 2005 Author Share Posted October 8, 2005 That price is for front and rear, not inc. shipping. I'm going to order these by the end of Oct. I'll make them fit. By "make them fit" I'm gessing that these are not made for the EA82 5spd D/R. What ARE they for, and how do U know U can make them work? Still no responce over @ Auzbaru (AKA: BYB) so I'm still DESPERATLY seeking info on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratsrus1 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Hey JWX This is Jerry, yes i have call him on the Aussie board i use to be able to post on that board but Mr Brett the big butt as he is band me form posting anything else. That has been over a year now. If somebody dose this to you you won't think very much of them. I have all the paper work stateing how much money he got and time and date he got it.

idosubaru Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 the terminology "off topic"/"on topic" is subjective. you don't care about his particular situation but it was in reference to a supplier of the gears you speak of so it could be useful to others. consider it a free bump, you'll need it on a custom job like this, keep the thread up there awhile.

bratsrus1 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Hey Soobme This is jerry, i would love to get a set of gears thats what i was trying for. All i am saying is becarefull you have no way to get your money back. If you are able to get a set of gears in 4.44 i am very interested in buying a set.

soobme Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 I know that some one here got a trany (RX D/R I think) from here in Medford from a shop called DHM. I was told that it was a 4.11:1 R&P, any truth to that? Would THAT R&P set fit into a regular 5spd D/R? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanislru Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 By "make them fit" I'm gessing that these are not made for the EA82 5spd D/R. What ARE they for, and how do U know U can make them work? They tranny case doesn't have clearnce fdr them but I'm going to try and find away around that. I'm not sure it will work but it does look promising, at the worst I've torn apart a perfectly good d/r trannie and lose about $500 reselling the gears.Almost stock gearing with 29's would rule! Most 4.44 users are installing them in wrx's for tighter shifts AFAIK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
