3.7 or 3.9 diff gears for my charged v8 stato?

[padrickz88]

With that sort of power you would probably be better going 3.45's......

I "think" it was foamy that said with cars that have FI the biggest you should go is about 3.45's? or you will have traction issue's...... I might be wrong, might be someone else....

yeh i can understand that coz i had a little problem with traction lol,also need better tyres lol.how much am i looking at for a set of 3.45s roughly fitted?

 

[eaton v8]

it cost me a bit due to the fact i went to get them fitted to my lsd and get the lsd rebuilt but no good the lsd had been shimmed to many times so i had to get an open wheeler so i could get the mini spool fitted

 

[v8_stato]

yeh well mines spooled so hope that dosnt effect anything.

3.9's all the way. Traction issues, you either need a better tyre choice or learn how to drive the car off the line. Never had an issue on the streets (except for when being stupid which is delibrate lose of traction) and down the drags, it sees some 1.5-1.6 60' times.. something the 3.45's never did.

Highway driving is annoy as hell, with high RPM, but car is not daily driven... more fortnightly run.

 

[pedrotski]

go the 3.45's if you are using it as a daily. other wise 3.9's

take it down the strip before and after so we know what difference it makes
