roscoFJ73 said:I doubt that its stronger,shifting is certainly snappier. Judging by the H55F ratios,it was obviously built for older engines with less HP as 1st is low.
With the newer engines having more power,the ultra low 1st is not such a necessity.
As it is,I ignore 1st gear unless I really need it,but its nice to have with a load on a steep hill.
Do H151 owners use 1st gear normally?
I was doing second gear starts last week with std split rims on no worrys,but breaking traction at 80kmph on skinnys in the wet roads wasnt fun, back with 315s have to use 1st gear for starts
