gearing questions

Featured Replies

i'm looking for gear ratios for 1st gen legacys awd trannys. i have the large tranny chart that is floating around but it doesn't cover anything older then a 94 in the legacys.

 

anyone know where i can get a chart for the ratios, like 1st-5th kind of ratios, i know they were all 4.11, i just need to know more then that.

thanks that would have gave me something but even that is wrong.

 

i was able to take my number from my tranny and put it in google and find that it was from a 91 legacy.

 

so just to really know i cracked the case open and started counting teeth.

 

1. 3.545

2. 1.947

3. 1.366

4. .972

5. .738

 

 

these are way higher gearing then i was hoping for.

 

i still want to find my perfect tranny, 97-99 legacy outback, but everyone wants an arm and a leg for them.

well looks like i was right on the money for counting teeth. and would have to assume that they used the same gearing for all the first gen legacys.

 

after reading the tranny chart one more time i found my second choice for a tranny, 95-97 1.8 impreza awd trannys. they have the second best set of gearing behind the outback, but i know there are tons more of those laying around then the outbacks.

The 92-94 had some changes in gearing, but I believe that was in the automatics. I'd have to double check in regards to the MT's.

 

when ever you get a chance that would be great.

 

i am on the search for a impreza tranny now

Yeah I just checked at the 92-94 MT non-turbo legacies appear to have the same gear ratios.

 

The turbo legacies have the same gearing, but different final drive ratio.

 

thanks for looking :)
