Generally speaking the UK Hawks have the longest ratios (5th/6th) and the UK 01-05 still having longer ratios than JDM counterparts IIRC.

FWIW when putting these boxes into classics the actual Revs/MPH may vary from the original donor car. My bug box in my classic will sit at lower revs/mph in 6th than someone I was talking to about their bug newage I don't know enough about the mechanics of drivetrains to give an informed answer.

All I can say is you won't be disappointed in fitting a bug box into a classic. It's very drivable in anger and on cruise, which in the latter it does Very well

MPG is significantly better

Any linkages/prop ?

Hiya mate, thanks for that info, its good to hear

https://www.scoobynet.com/subaru-parts-451/907755-newage-6-speed-gearbox-1250-r180-diff-shafts-rear-hubs-classic-conversion-maybe.html

I would prefer to sell the lot as a Classic conversion with the rear hubs inc, but failing it I wil split the lot or stash it for future use

JDM is shorter than UK,i think 5th and 6th is shorter than UK

JDM/EURO 6MT Gear Ratios

1st Gear 3.636
2nd Gear 2.375
3rd Gear 1.761
4th Gear 1.346
5th Gear 1.062 / 0.971
6th Gear 0.842 / 0.756
Reverse Gear 3.545

Second think you will be doing 70mph at 3200rpm on JDM in 6th and on UK you should be doing 70mph at 2500-2800rpm on UK in 6th.

Thanks for the info Jura,

PS I have palmed off the job you asked me to look at to G4 Graphics, I havent time to do any graphics at the moment (for a couple of weeks), and with the Printer being out of comission its a no-go. Jason @ G4 is a great bloke, he'll sort it im sure
