currently I have problem with my manual gearbox. My mechanic said it's probably the diff, but no one dare to open it and change one by one. So, i have to get the whole gearbox changed, with secondhand one (AUD$1850 6month warranty) I haven't consult with the dealer yet (i'll do it next year)
I'm just wondering, if i change it with GTI gearbox, will it improve signnificantly? what id the side effect with my 1.6L engine? How about fuel consumption? and how should i drive it? should i change gear at higher rev? gti will be more expensive, of course.(no idea how much it cost though)
the ratio of both gearboxz as follow:
GTI XT
Ratio 1 : 3.455 3.417
Ratio 2 : 1.870 1.950
Ratio 3 : 1.360 1.276
Ratio 4 : 1.051 1.054
Ratio 5 : 0.861 0.854
Reverse : 3.333 3.584
Final Drive : 3.79 3.76
Anyone with knowledge about the ratio, PLEASE help me tha
