Porsche G50 transaxle

[jkyle69]

Does anyone have one of these items knocking about and can take some pictures and dimensions for me as I have been looking all over the internet and cant find anything at all. Need the position of the mounting points, help really appreciated

Ditto.... I'm looking for the same info

[andygtt]

how acurate do you need them?

[jkyle69]

I really need overall dimensions of the transaxle including the position of any mounting points to connect to any chassis points; width, height, depth and some pictures I can then reference these items from. I can then get rough CAD models made from the measurements to incorporate into my chassis deisgn. Thanks for the help, drop me an email if you like at [e-mail]

Remember there are several versions of the G50..

main types are:
early short nose, has transverse mounting
slightly longer version of above, I think bellhousing is main length increase
late nose cone style with donut bushing in the casting
longer version of above (6 speed)

I have a GT3 box so could only give you dimentions for the mounting points to engine as they are all the same on the G50's 930's and the GT boxs....
The mounting points elseware on the boxs will differ a lot depending upon which version you buy.

For pictures I suggest you browse the build site sticky on the Ultima forum. Also from there try the FAQ drop down.
As far as I'm aware there is only the one mounting for the box. There are the bell housing fixings and a huge rubber donut in the tail.
As has been said there are a number of versions of the G50 with different physical size and a variety of ratios.

Hello Andy, is the GT3 box a 6 speed turbo box? This was the box I wanted to use so if you have that then the dimensions off that box would be exactly what I was looking for

[andygtt]

Mine is also used in the Twin turbo, but only the twin turbo, GT2 and GT3... its quite a rare box and will cost a lot and isn't actually a G50 but has the same engine mounting points.
There are quite a few turbo G50's even 6 speeders so be careful.

Hi,

I have recently purchased a G50/00 89 carerra short nose box if that is any use to you. Another good source of information on these boxes is www.gt40s.com/forum/
