Why do you want a different ratio?


Also, how did you search?

Must not have searched to hard man.

http://www.kspec.com/main.php?s=FGR

Only one of them is available right now, but it's on the site.

I put in "Gear ratio" on the search for RDTiburon.com and found a ton of threads.

I search all the vendors first and then I use the search tool on RD.

But cool man thanks for the find. Now one more question. What is the exact ratio. I want them for acceleration. So what does 4.294 FGR mean. That is what the gears appear to be.

mang for the price of rippin off the tranny, opening it up, swapping the gears
replacing the clutch(yes you should do this if your going to pull out the tranny), fillin it with oil

you can get some nice cams that will allow you to scream and give you alot more hp and response

some nice 264 cams

should cost about 600 or so plus tuning so about 800-900

still cheaper than replacing the FGR

and you can install the cams yourself

Well I have the 4 cylender version of the V8 loap.

So if I can take it to 7-8grand well I carry power all the way through and will it help out my acceleration?
