If it helps, I have an output shaft (the one with pinion) and ring already out of transmission and disassembled from when I was doing my Frankenstein S51 final drive & 5th gear + S54 1-4 gears. I can lend it to you for free if you'd like - just throw me a deposit and cover shipping both ways. I would like to have the parts back my May, as that's when I have my LeMons race coming up and these act as my spares. Parts are not damaged or worn. I have all the other guts of the gearbox as well - stock diff, gears, etc.

they are keeping the ring n pinion. i have a spare trans nonetheless

Okay, so we have the choice between a 4.7 straight cut or a helical cut, but you only send yours to MFactory, so how the company in south africa will do ? they already have the design to make one ? or you will send them the data for making it ?

Cause i'm of course interested by the straight cut and i'm wondering how they will make it

For the payment, how we will make it ? are we all gonna send 700USD or 700USD + shipping depend on where we lived ?

Alright i have the ring n pinion on me now. Just have to press out gears off input shaft. Then drop it off at mfactory next thursday

Ok so i dropped off ring n pinion at syncrotech (mfactory is a sister company) David said straight cut is not a good design and causes too much lateral force on the trans housing n causes parts to break. They know from trial and error on honda motors.

Okay so straight cut is a bad idea

So the price for the 4.750 will be around 700$ (of course we will see the real price in 2 week or so) but if we want 4.9 or 5.1 it will cost 100$ more but it's possible ?
And it's not 6 week but 6 month to produced in the end ?

Sorry if i ask stupid question, just want to be sure i have well understood

We are close now

please be patient and lets not make any assumptions. in about 2 weeks i'll have all the info I need to make this group buy official

Finally after over a year of waiting. the day has come!!! v

MFactory is the Manufacture and sister company of syncrotech. Mfactory said we need 15 people in order to make this batch. Please share this with others at local track events because we need to hit our goal of 15 people.

I will be taking deposit of $475 from everyone before we place our order through PayPal. Mfactory told me we they would like the payment by 7/12/2018, but they could possible extend it for us.


Increase in torque from 4.176 - 4.9 is 18.11%

not sure how many of you are interested still but i'll be getting another quote from Elite Racing Transmission In UK in a few weeks. just have to measure my parts first.

also for those of you considering an E56 transmission. i have a lead on a guy in Europe who is charging 250 euros plus shipping. then all you have to do is find a final drive from a 96-2000 Rav4 with 3sfe motor. the E250 transaxle from the Front wheel drive has a 4.562 final ratio and the AWD E250F has a 4.933 ratio. its something im highly considering. although e56 is heavier it does have lines to attach external oil cooler.

I have decided to go with the E56 gearbox for the extra strength and a set of custom 1-5 gears.
