Default gears

whats the highest gearing you can get?

I know the GT comes with 3.23s and you can get 3.73s and 4.10s... but is there anything higher?

The GT comes with 3.27's and the highest Ive heard people going with is 4.30's. I would think anything above 4.30's wpuld be a pain to drive daily. But I dunno.

yea the highest i've heard is 4.30s, and even those I hear are a pain to drive with, but then some say they aren't; hence why i'm still undecided lol.

I think I could deal with 4.30s because the Si stock is 4.4. Thanks for the quick help.

and oops... I did mean 3.27s JD. [8D]

There are higher gears than 4.30's but not exactly sure what they are. They're out there but like jdan said not for daily driving.

damn, 4.88... those are even shorter than the highest final on B series engines... I think I'll try some 4.30s.

Thank yas for your help Mr. D

One more question though; Do you know any links to where I could find a set of 4.30s?
