Founder Beanoir™ Posted June 21, 2016 Founder Share Posted June 21, 2016 Has anybody ever looked at fitting a different spec diff to their Cayman R (or any Cayman) in order to shorten the gears a bit? I've always thought most Caymans have quite long gear ratios... I'm guessing the answer, anything is possible if you want to spend the money!

Red Square Images Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Anything is possible. If you want to spend the money. Is the manual a seven speed? On the PDK in sport plus it looses 7th gear and Vmaxes in 6th. 7th is sooo long as its just a fuel economy gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcr5784 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 EMCO did (do?) produce a shorter ration (4.22 if my memory serves me right) but it has proved very unreliable in racing, so I'm not sure it would be a wise choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richjar Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Does the "R" have a different diff ratios than the base or "S" model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang on, thats what I said... 6 speed if you drive stick in the CR. 2 hours ago, richjar said: Does the "R" have a different diff ratios than the base or "S" model? I don't think so, unless the LSD affects the final drive ratio - which I don't know the answer to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
