Default Type R & RA V-ltd

I believe that standard 5th gear ratio for the Type R and RA is 0.825.

Does anyone know the ratio for the V-ltd cars (which I understand have a longer ratio for better cruising)?

Thanks

Have info stating that the sti ra/r and non sti r/ra have the 0.825 5th and the wrx/sti v5 has 0.738 5th.

No mention of the limited models though,maybe they have the 0.738 5th off the standard wrx/sti model.

Thanks. Yes, I have similar info. As you suggest, maybe the V-ltd cars use the 5th gear ratio from the STi (and WRX).

Default Ratios

Yes, as already stated, STI Type R/RA's have a 0.825 5th, while STI 4 doors have 0.738. BUT on the Type R/RA Ltd's the 0.738 was an option.
