ZF 6sp was the first auto in an F6 model variant (started from BF - there were no BA auto F6 variants). There was never a 4spd auto F6 model variant. All T56/TR6060 equipped 4L-Turbo falcons come with a 3.73 LSD. All ZF 6-speed equipped 4L-Turbo falcons come with either a 2.73 open or 2.73 LSD, depending on model. EDIT: FYI... T56 with 3.73 does about 2,000rpm in 6th at 100km/h. TR6060 is slightly better at around 1,800rpm at 100km/h due to the slightly shorter top gear ratio of the TR6060 equipped variants (these TR6060 variants are ALL manual FG 4L-Turbo variants).

Well FMD I could hardly have remembered more incorrectly if I tried... sorry guys Now you say it I vaguely recall all the dramas Motor mag (or wheels) had when they tested the first typhoon back then, first AP clutch failed pretty quick on the test mule Now we're talking about it though keith, what's your opinion on 5th in a tr6060...can it take a hammering or not. Specifically thinking of hard 4-5 change if I was to take mine to the drags, sorta hoping I'd be hitting around 128mph with 438rwkw and would require a pretty tall tyre to not need that extra gear depending on rev limit. With std oil pump gears not really wanting to push it too hard up top. Did a conversion between tyre diameter and top speed... Did a bit of searching on here but couldn't find anything specific Sorry for derail matty but may be of interest to you when you become manualmatt tyre diameter to mph.xlsx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a stupidly slow shift and not worth your time and effort to try to further accelerate in an overdrive gear at the track. It can be done, though...

So cheap LSD for me now as well haha Either 3.45 or 3.7 id be happy with. I think id struggle to find the top of 4th at the 1/4 mile with either ratio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
