I just wanted to see if anyone here was running the 4.77 gears.


If you do, do you drive your S daily ? And whats the rpm's at, at highway speeds?

Thanks

 

5100rpm at 80mph

6000rpm at 95mph

AP1

 

Thank you very much !

Arn't you running gears ?

 

yes I am running the 4.77's

 

i had the 4.77 for one week, freeway driving was not as bad as most people make it out to be.

 

What did you end up doing with them ? And why did you get rid of them ?

 

The S is your daily right ??

How do you like them ?

 

It was daily, its sitting in the garage since its for sale.

If I were to buy another AP1, it would be my first mod without a doubt

 

I think im set on getting the 77's then. did you get them from motorkassie (sp)

 

hardtopguy, who also did the install

I'd source the gears myself now though, since I know they are only Mazda gears

I ended up selling my whole diff + yellow box for $200

I had a bad install, ring and pinion were shot. if you are in so cal do not go to ramjet for the installation.

Weren't a lot of people recommended to go there? That sucks. If anyone wants a heads up on a good installer that's done 15 or so installs, PM me.

Yes, the whole reason i went there was because of the referals from s2ki. But the shop messed up the install, then wouldn't fix it... they even wanted to charge to put my stock diff back in

I have heard lots of good things about raceline
