Possible to change the ratio of a spinning reel?

[hafnor]

Finally found schematics for both reels. think it is possible to change the high ratio? if so, what is to change? pinion gear and drive gear?

As you say hafnor,pinion gear and drive gear. The chance of finding 4:1 gears to suit this reel are very slim as they would have to be compatable with the support bearings etc in your dogfight 6500.  Better to ask Daiwa their opinion on this one.

if any gears would fit it more than likely would be the Z6500exp they are 4.3 but you would have to contact diawa but there service is not the best at least not in aust.

Just spoke with plat japan regarding ordering the main gear and pinion gear for the dogfight. And the prices are crazy! 215 usd for the main gear and 30 usd for the pinion gear. this will add up to roughly 310usd with postage... MY oh my, anybody know where to get it cheaper?
