RE: Gears
I have up to this point managed to stay away from gear topics, but i will throw this out there. I have no idea why so many people hate 3:73's now. I have been in cars with both sizes and while there is a difference between 4:10's and 3:73's, it's not anything that will make you hate yourself for getting one or the other. I personally love 3:73's, only because its the best of both worlds for me (highway driving and city driving). Also, at 80mph with 4:10's your at 3000RPM compared to 2400 with 3:73's. 600 RPM does make a difference over the long haul in both mpg and interior sound resonance. So if i were you i would try and find a buddy or someone at the track with both sets of gears and make your decision off of them. Hope this helps.
