Which gears?

[prstang]

Allright! I know you guys have beaten this topic to death. I live in Puerto Rico and my driving conditions are similar to Cali. most of my driving is in the mountains and some traffic jams. I'm looking for a gearing to do some spirited canyon driving. My car is stock with a t5. Would love your input.

Personally, a set of 3.73's would be an nice addition.

If he cares about worse MPG he mite regret it.
I had FRPP 4.10's in my 96 GT and got terrible gas mileage.
I wish I had got FRPP 3.73's to begin with because I care about
gas mileage that was my daily driver.

4:30's, thats what i just bought, get them from 50resto its everything you need for an install for a good price, the only thing is that the 4:30's are on backorder until march 19

 

[Stangbangin]

4.10's own!!! if your worried about gas mileage you're in the wrong hobby my friend.

Did you guys ever notice that cars without any HP need lower gears..........I just did.

[Midnight_Cobra]

Lower as in numerically? Or gear ratio wise?

I am going to go with 3.73 or a set of 4.10 just b/c i have a VERT with a AODE. I think i am swaying to a 4.10 set FRPP.
If you want to do some traffic and mountain driving i would say a set of 3.73

no shit

Damn, I make one comment and the "No HP crew" is up in arms. Take it easy, it was just an observation and nothing more.

Everyone has to start somewhere and I was a 287rwhp guy for awhile then I maxed out my credit cards and waala......5 blocks later and a sixth on its way and you too can make 600rwhp. Believe me, I made my share of mistakes.

What are your long term goals for the car? If you plan on putting a blower on you may want to consider 3.55, buting in 4.10 or higher then buting a blower on will only kill the car gear wise (you'll run out of gear and fast).
