i need gears. my car has stock 2.73 gears. Im wonder if i should go with 3.42 or 3.73's. Im not woried about gas mileage or else id buy a honda civic. Also what brand should i get? thanks

 

Go 3.73 if you got a Six speed, 3.42 if you got a auto. Hell, i'd go 4.11 with a six speed.

 

If you dont care about gas mileage get 4.10's and I've always liked Motive, they have less wine, but if you wanted a quiet car you'd have a civic, so get Richmonds they tend to wine too

I would do LCA's and SFC's before I would do gears...

 

well i generally dont care about gas mileage but i dotn want 8 miles per gallon. :P From what ive read 4.10's arent to popular with automatic guys.

 

And some sticky tires too right?

CANTONRACER can you check this thread out for me?

how come? note. this car will never see a track and ill probably never do launches or anything.

my overall goal with gears is to improve on 0-60, or a little more passing power.

 

I had a budy go from 2.73's to 3.42's in his LS1, it was SICK!! I could beet him when he was stock with my Z, after the gears it wasn't even close anymore. From what I read, 3.42's in an auto = 3.73's in a M6 and 3.73 in an auto = 4.10's in a M6 and 4.10's in an auto = 4.56's in a M6.. Food for thought..

 

What are LCA's and SFC's?

 

LCA = Lower Control Arms
SFC = Sub Frame Connectors

 

really? Maybe i should only get 3.42's then in my A4 instead of 3.73's? Ah maybe i'll still go 3.73's.....lol

 

Go for the 3.73's everyone here seems to like them alot from the threads I have read. SFC are nice with or without gears. I can only wonder how much it would improve 0-60 or launching it from a roll...

Wheel hop occurs on the street as much as on the track.

You put some LCA's and some SFC's, the car will hook better on the track and just be more enjoyable. Nothing worse that wheel hop on these cars...even stock I had it.

 

Go for 3.73's on your automatic!!!!!! You'l regret going lower ratio if you don't.

 

go 3.73 w/ auto. 4.10 w/ m6. or you'll regret it!!!
