This is JQ Products "THE Smooth" Gearing, and is intended for use with JQ Products THE Car. This optional gear package replaces the stock front and rear 11/43 tooth pinion/ring gears, and 44/15 tooth spur/clutchbell, to a 13/43 tooth pinion/ring gear, and a 45/13 tooth spur/clutchbell, for a slightly taller gear ratio. While this change only alters the final drive ratio (FDR) slightly, it changes the internal ratio between the ring and pinion gears dramatically. This was done to help smooth out the acceleration and make the car easier to drive, making this a highly recommended upgrade.
NOTE: 13 tooth clutch bell not included (JQP-B-184).
Stock Gearing:
- 44T spur/15T clutchbell = 2.93
- 43T ring/11T pinion = 3.90
- 2.93 x 3.90 = 11.427 FDR
- 45T spur/13T clutchbell = 3.46
- 43T ring/13T pinion = 3.30
- 3.46 x 3.30 = 11.418 FDR
