From what I understood the 5 speed Boxster trans, the axles were two different lengths. At the start he said the axles fit, I thought something didn't seem right, but now that we finally got to doing the wheel alignment, I was correct in that the passenger side is too short. He said about 1/2".
Does anyone know what the correct length of axle would be on the passenger side using the 5 speed Boxster trans, and if so, where I can acquire one at? |

Is anyone else using the 5 speed boxster trans with the LS3 engine that could advise me on the axle lengths?

All the adapters I've seen have been to the 6 speed as it's more than twice as beefy. The 5 speed is only a little bit stronger than a built 914 box. |

The only way Im getting away with the 5spd box on my car is with how large my turbo is the initial impact to the trans is much lower, regardless of my actual HP.. I wouldnt put anything more than a 5.3 in front of the 5spd, even then I wouldnt expect it to last very long. A 4.8 would be a decent match. |
