NEED 91 240sx 5-speed Transmission gear ratios from FSM for Race Car #37 *PICS*

[no_fear_racer]

Does anyone out there have a 91 Factory Service Manual?? I need the 5-speed transmission gear ratios cause I am putting a 91 transmission in my 90 race car and want to be sure the ratios are the same, especially 3rd gear. The trannys are the same (FS5W71C) but the 91 has "#1" on the side and the 90 has "#2" on the side and someone who use to race the older 200sx said one might have a closer gear ratio up through the gears. Please help. I have a 90 FSM to compare the ratios. Thanks so much.

[:: orion ::]

All 240SX transmissions from '89-98 have the same ratios, and bolt up to any S13/S14 KA block.

The later years have more sensors, but will work fine in any earlier car...provided you use the sensors for that chassis year/model.

I race that on a tar oval track. It is a MINI-STOCK---(STOCK). Engine and Suspension is stock except you can go up on the right side front sway bar to help rolling over on itself. front camber also allowed,Fuel Cell,roll cage- Also these are 14" racing rims so that gives extra room around the wheelwells for any crashing that may happen. I had a half a track lead on the second place guy(93ish Prelude) last week, but lost the lead on the restart due to my car not wanting to shift from 2nd to 3rd. I started in 3rd on the restart and two guys jumped all over me. Almost passed them both at the checker, pushed one guy sideways across the line after he bounced off the leader into me. Got Third two weeks in a row. should win this week-I changed my transmission,clutch,clutch slave and clutch master cylinders, and it is shifting very nicely. This is the fastest car at the track. Just really figured out my tire pressure settings out last week. It always had been pushing out of the corners but is better now. Well gotta run - Take it easy everyone--Dave
