E51 rebuild with 94-95 SW20 E153 and Kazz Close Ratio Gears

Post by celesa »

Hi All,

Hopefully someone will be able to shed some light as information on the net is scare. I recently converted my SC engine into an 1.8 ITB high-Comp NA (Factory SC car), what I want to do next is improve the E51 gear ratios to better suite the engine hence I am finding parts to rebuild the E51.

I came across some post that it is possible to use E153 internals on E51, I managed to find a brand new SW20 Turbo E153 (94-95) gearbox; will I be able to use this and simply swap the parts (Shafts, Synchrons, Bearings) over?
I also want to check will the Kazz Close Ratio gear set designated for E153 (SW20 turbo) fit right into the E51 as well?

My E51 have Kazz LSD installed, will I be able to reuse this?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Cel
