3.42 to 3.73 gear upgrade.

I just finnished installing new Motive preformance 3.73 and a "lightly" used Zexel T2-R. I also welded the tubes and replace all the bearings in hopes of it not blowing up.LOL!! I also have a TA Girdle to help.
I never thought there would be that BIG af a differance.WOW!!!!! Was I Wrong!!!! I cant really come on to it because I also have a new Spec Stage 3 Clutch and Billit FW, that must be broke-in. But the little I can, it was alot quicker to respond. I've read that gears make a car and i guess their right. Well worth the money. I'm looking forward to getting 500 miles on the clutch so I can really get a feal of what they are like.

Well... now that you mention it I have a set of 315/35/17 Nitto 555R's just waiting to go on after the clutch gets broke in. No sense in putting miles on them until i can crank on it.LOL

Mine are 9.5 ZR1 from AFS. I know, I know, you can't put that big af a tire on that narrow of a rim, BUT the Nitto's are smaller than the BFG's and Mickeys. More like a 295 than a 315. Did my reasearch and it will work.



What happened to your Sig? Its gone....
