Why do you want a final drive? What's the chassis and current tire size?

A little off topic... how would the gearing change if I went from a 215 50 15 tire to a 215 40 16 tire? It is over 1" less diameter...

LOL

I decided to go retro y0

Hu, at my comp at home I have an excel program that some guy made. Basically all you have to do is have a pretty minor knowledge of ratios, tire sizes and how to calculate speed to figure it out.

You take engine rpm, multiply by the gear ratio, then multiply by the final drive ratio. That will give you axle rpm. Then you take that and divide by 60. That will give you rotations of the tire per hour. Then you multiply by tire circumference in feet. Divide that by 5280 and that will give you mph.

Doing it in excel you can set up a sheet that will give you speed at every rpm point in a given gear, with an input tire size and gear ratios. Pretty nifty.

it's a good product. I have had zero problems with it in my race car. I don't think anyone has abused it more than I have over the past year.

Mfactory is making some of us a 5.2FD, if your interested.

That price is not correct.

We're installing an MF 4.64 FD into a Prelude in the next week or two, and I'm installing one into my H22 Civic project.

I don't want to spend that much money on the kit, and I don't want to modify the block that much. I already have an H22 transmission too.

On http://www.Mfactoryhk.com make sure you hit the USA flag before you look at price. the 5K price is yen (JDM yo!). The USDM price is $550 for the street version, and $750 for the pro race version.
