Hey mate i would either go 3.45 or 3.9, though its up to you, if you do abit of highway go the 3.45, if not go the 3.9, (by the way BUY is spelt like that lol)

why aren't 3.7's an option?

 

[redcv6]

because you are the first person to mention them to me lol, honestly didn't know there were 3.7's.

yeah, ther actaull 3.73:1, and if i lived in the city, that's what ratio i would get but i live in the country area, so 3.45's are what i'm getting.

cheers for the help, ill look into them aswell, i rarely drive at 100/km so really dont care about the extra fuel that will be consumed at that speed. thanks heaps

If you rarely do any 100/km driving then i would go the 3.7 or 3.9

go the 3.7s there in the vt hsv clubsport.
Just put the clubby diff in my car today as well as
rear cradle
lower control arms
shocks
springs
rotors
brake pads
camber kit
You will find you will get better fuel consumption as well if you dont lead foot it.

Perhaps the Poll options should have a response "If i posted in the right section people could help me"

For a V8 - 3.9's
For a V6 - 3.5-3.7's any higher and say goodbye to any reasonable fuel consumption on a highway.
