Curt..
I've heard straight cut gear boxi at the
track. They're all very loud as compared
to the stock road boxi, which are also
loud as compared to my Datsun 210
box.
The first Datsun 210 I used was an
original. It was extremely quiet. The
210 box I am now using is a rebuilt.
The sychros are better but, the box has
a distinct (but not unpleasant) whine in
all gears.
Your's may have been rebuilt at one point
or another, so parts might not be as well-
matched as in the original unit insofar as
the first three gears are concerned. Same
with my current 210 rebuilt.
Brake pad/shoe material has undergone
refinements/improvements since 22
years ago. Suggest some modern
competition linings? :)
