Message: <blockquote data-quote="vestax" data-source="post: 391173" data-attributes="member: 41">i`ve been using the F5M21 1.3 / 1.5 gearbox for nearly 2 years coupled with the 4G63 engine , total up the life usage of the gearbox it will be about 9 years i`ve been using the gearbox since the car was bought and still runing strong . just some leaks which i bet its the oil seal . SDF kor kor , not that the 1.3 / 1.5 gearbox doesn't last , it last trust me it does :) , just that if the engine has too much torque the gearbox would fail , but if the engine is standard and has an acceptable torque it would definitely last , and can bet that the 4wd gearbox would be a total lost if given a hard trash like there is no tomorrow and coupling it up with a high torque engine . my advice if you know how to maintain it , it would last , come on which wear & tear parts will last forever ? some day some how it will fail on you , its just the matter of how you treat it , how you maintain it thats about it , unless there are some defects from the factory which doesn't count . the reason most of us use back the gearbox , cause we didn't want to mess with the driveshaft , cause putting on the 4wd gearbox on to a certain car like saga / iswara would have an issue with the driveshaft , some mix & match the driveshaft heads , some cut & weld , some cut & rethread , some custom , obviously the custom made driveshaft would last , as for other methods you`ll find you self with a broken shaft , if you push to its limit . so basically its simple to use back the 1.3 gearbox cause all mechanics are familiar with it , and can replace it without any problems . obviously it has its downside , which the gearbox not plug & play , so a little modifications needed to be done , either skim off the gb housing or skim off the clutch cover . thats the only downside i can think off .</blockquote>
