Hey everyone,

After sifting through mitsubishi.epc-data.com I have compiled this list of gearboxes that were available in the FTO.

Use this as a reference if you were wondering if you had a LSD or standard diff type. Your gearbox number is stamped on the top of the gearbox.

Yeah, but is there any reason as to why they are different part numbers and listed seperately? i.e. are the gearboxes themselves different aside from the build date?

I would assume there were some slight revisions.

The GP Version R gearboxes cost near 6k for a full replacement. PLEASE TREAT THE 5 SPEED LSD TIPS WITH CARE LOL.

Just whack in a manual and give all the 5spd tips to me for spares. :lol:

The 5spd tips in general are not cheap.
Very few of them, and not very many on our shores.

If it's a 4 speed then peanuts. If its a 5 speed, then ask AstronBoy if he has a spare kidney :lol:

Nah, if you get lucky and someone needs one then maybe 150 bucks or something. Not many people tend to need them.

No way it does 175 in second, It can do at least 220.
