I got tired of searching Tranny, Transmission, syncro, 02a, o2a, 02j, o2j, 2nd gear and all othe other usual topic key words. I'm happy to see this forum is finally here. So when looking at another VW's gearing for selections just remember you can not mix and match 1st and 2nd gears from factory VW trannys It should be mentioned that 1st and 2nd gears are machined together on the input shaft so they have to be swapped together. If anybody wants to play while on the highway I always drop to 4th(its just the way I am) When the $$$ permit I'd like to swap in a. But I think I'll be useing the G60 5th gear to drop the revs a little while on the highway.
G60 O2J SWAP DRIVER
I have not yet rebuilt my tranny but I look forward to this gearing as it will give me more 1st & 2nd gears which every G60 driver complains about being too short. Its the CDM gearing out of a SLC VR6 corrado. G60racer has the same gearing that I'm going with and he loves it. Some of the people that opt for the Passat 3.9 tranny end up finding 1st to be useless and find themselves riding with high rpms while on the highway in 5th gear. He wish he had kept the G60 final drive when he installed a tranny with the CCM gearing because his car was not as peppy as with the G60 tranny. The person that I listen to the most on this was from Ireland and his car has a lot more performace goodies than mine so I listened to him carefully. I had talked with a number of people that have done various tranny swaps into the G60 and for performance most like the 3.6? ring and pinion some that went with 3.389 or 3.45 complained of being a little sluggish in the performance but they usually enjoy the lower RPMs on the highway.

But the ball was already rolling and I had begun buying parts for my transmission rebuild.įor a little while I considered buying a complete OEM tranny with 6spd add on tranny for $2250 I really didn't like the gear ratios and the 6spd gear ratios available really don't apeal to me. But they did say they would rebuild it for $700-$800 I believe.

Since I did not like the price for the rebuild through Kraftswerk for a G60 tranny $1300 I then contacted BSI and they were very fast to respond to 2 of my emails but the 3rd one that required a them to give me a price quote was almost 2 months. Also I used their rebuild prices to weigh out my options of whether to buy new, used or rebuild it myself(assist a local VW master mechanic) I used their site to learn about what transmissions were readily available in various cars and what gearing they had. I like to cruise through the site for various questions I might have from time to time.
