Where do I find the gearbox code? I'm trying to work out what gearbox I have.
I've looked at the underside and the last 3 digits are 054. (I think)
It's a 1984 8v GTI.

Underneath the box at the bottom of the bellhousing is a flat plate. What are the first 3 digits??
Or the complete number.
9AO or 9OA**045 from memory. It's too low to see!
9A is close ratio with tall final drive & 100mm CVs. Small input shaft (22mm) and should use the red speedo gear on the cable.
Ratios are
3.46 / 2.12 / 1.44 / 1.13 / 0.89 with a FDR of 3.67

So It's a good box or should I swap it out?
Depends on how you want to drive the car.
For track use you'd want a lower diff ratio, for highway use that's a great box.
