TRANSMISSION

In Automotive, 2 type of transmission:

1) Manual Transmission

2) Automatic Transmission

General

As transmissions designed exclusively for 5-speed, 3rd-4th and 5th speed synchronizers is arranged on the input shaft while a 1st-2nd speed synchronizer is arranged on the intermediate gear.

A simple mechanical shift control mechanism is used in shifting into 5th-speed. As a result, the conventional 5th-speed shift control mechanism which uses a vacuum servo has been eliminated

The number of sets of gear meshing when the transmission is turning in neutral has been reduced from six to two, thereby reducing the noises produced during idling with the shift lever in Neutral.

Through use of a new type of synchronizer piece and a reduction in the inertial moment of the relevant synchronizing parts (through modification of the gear train), the shifting effort has been reduced and the shift feeling has been improved.

Through use of split needle bearings and an increase in the capacity of the shaft support bearings, the reliability and durability have been improved
