"English" final drive ratios
Posted: Mon Aug 28, 2017 1:38 pm
Good afternoon from France !
Having read many previous threads on this subject, as I have been looking for ratios to make my S2 comfortable to drive (on our wonderfully fast roads here in the EU ), and have come across a firm that was certainly new to me who offer a wide range of "English" crown wheels and pinions.
NTG are a manufacturer in Abroath, Scotland (not China) and sell parts directly to the public and have the following CW & P's in stock:
7/31 4.43:1
7/33 4.71:1
7/34 4.86:1
7/36 5.18:1
10/33 3.30:1
10/34 3.4:1, available in 10 weeks.
All above are available at ?355.00 inc. VAT (currently 20%) but transport is additional.
I asked NTG about the 3.44:1 ratio (which seems to be ultra-unobtainium) and NTG could run off a set, but to make this financial viable, sufficient interest (deposits!) would be needed.
The pricing would be 1 set would be circa ?2,600.00, 10 sets ?690.00, 30 sets ?355.00 all inc. VAT.
The link to the company (with whom I have no personal link or financial interest) is as follows:

The chap to ask for is Gordon Strachan.
