Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I would like to shorten up gears 1-3 in the 6 speed without changing the tranny by replacing the ring and pinion. I don't care if top speed if reduced from the ~ 170. Current set-up is stock. Any reccommendations on the replacement gearing ratio? (C2 996)

POST 2Original post

Hi Mark: I think you'll find the gearing options for the 996 transmission to be extremely limited. AFAIK, there are no racing ratios or optional gearsets out there for these trannies and there isn't a replacement one since the bellhousing and bolt patterns are different between the 996 and all other gearboxes, including the GT-3. We are currently testing a shorter Ring & Pinion for the 996 but its not ready for shipment, yet.
