actually i will vote the 4.44's for daily driving...

i want to get 4.56's installed soon...

 

4.44's aren't even worth it in my eyes... besides i don't think they make them anymore... ??

 

j's and mazdaspeed makes them...

i like them, revhi has them and they ride nice...

 

its my daily driver so something reliable but i dont wanna lose to much top in cuse i like killing the mustangs on tha higway

 

I'm buying the 4.77 kia gears from the dealership I work at.

They are made by mazda, which also makes our stock gears.

i think im going to get the complete diff with 4.56's from HTG this summer...

 

as soon as i get my tax return this week im ordering 4.56 gears, should i upgrade my housing ( i wont be doing any hard launching) or just a gear swap be fine

 

i definitly want the gears

 

Gears are also on my list... if i don't sell the S first.

hows the install for this, is it hard, im pretty mechanicly inclined

 

have you done clutch/tranny work before?

 

clutch yes, never took a tranny apart, but replaced a trans on a beries many times. I have a torque wrench and any tool i need, ive done axles..etc

edit call me stupid but im a replacing the final drive gear in the tranny or the gear in the differential

 

if you did tranny work on another car, you should be able to install a FD. just have a helm's/service manual for those small specs. its very imp't to follow them so you don't get weird noises later
