Gearbox & Final-Drive Tuning

Editable gear ratios, final drive and clutch type that trade acceleration against top speed, validated and persisted per vehicle server-side.

NON-TESTÉ — the reference Lua is syntax-validated, not run in a live FiveM server. Adapt and test on your own dev server before shipping.

Description

A gearbox bench where a tuner edits gear count, final drive and clutch type, trading acceleration against top speed, with the whole setup validated and persisted per car server-side. It extends the simulation layer the rising tuning wave is reaching for — the kind of depth that makes drag and roll-race servers pick your scripts over a flat upgrade menu.

Known Failure Modes & Corrective Prompt

  • Unclamped ratios — the server stores whatever the client sends, so a 40-gear box desyncs handling. Clamp every field server-side.
  • Missing anim loadTaskPlayAnim fires before the dict loads; no install pose.
  • No persistence replay — the setup reverts on relog because nothing replays it. Add gbx:load.

Corrective re-prompt: Add a server validate() that clamps gears to [4,8] (integer), accel to [3,25], the top-speed multiplier to [0.6,1.8] and whitelists clutch to stock/sport/race, store the cleaned setup keyed by plate, and add a gbx:load event that replays it when the player re-enters the car.

Framework Integration

QBCore: gate /gearbox to the mechanic job via GetPlayer(src) and persist the setup on player_vehicles mods JSON. QBox: exports.qbx_core:GetPlayer(src) + oxmysql upsert; optionally expose the setup via lib.callback for a UI. ESX: the same server validate() + store ports via exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject() if extended to ESX.

Profit Potential

$250–$3500/mo on Tebex (expected ~$900). [INFERRED] Priced in the $50-389 band; a rising sim-depth niche (corpus median seller $11.85K/mo, signal-scraper tebex_snapshot n=100) supports steady mid-volume units among drag/roll-race servers.

Trend Signal

rising — inferred: gear-ratio tuning extends the sim layer the rising tuning wave is reaching for [inferred].

Sales Angle

Target sim-leaning drag and roll-race servers with a real gearbox bench — gear count, final drive, clutch type. Recommended Tebex price $149 as a sim-depth add-on.
