WITCH GEARS?

mike96gt · September 15th, 2007, 12:00 AM

I was looking at some gears and found some 4:30 that i waned to put on my '96 gt 5spd. What would you guys recomend for this mustang model

tlr96 · September 15th, 2007, 12:02 AM

410s n/a, 373s boosted.

mike96gt · September 15th, 2007, 12:04 AM

what about the 4.30

tlr96 · September 15th, 2007, 12:06 AM

what mods do you have and what are your plans for the car? IMHO 430s are a little much.

mike96gt · September 15th, 2007, 12:07 AM

the car is stock,but i want to start with something

tlr96 · September 15th, 2007, 12:12 AM

well like i said, if you want to keep it n/a i would go with 410s. but if you plan on adding a s/c or turbo, id go with 373s. 430s i think would be to much for daily driving.

MustangMatt96GT · September 15th, 2007, 12:14 AM

4.30s FTW

but in all reality go with the 4.10s!

mike96gt · September 15th, 2007, 12:14 AM

what gears you have on yours?

MustangMatt96GT · September 15th, 2007, 12:16 AM

I have 4.10s, but would go with 4.30s if I had to do it again, but my car has only seen the highway 6 times since I have owned it! lol Its my daily driver as well!

mike96gt · September 15th, 2007, 12:19 AM

i heard of people getting 373 and wanted to switch to 410s

it really depends on what ur looking for. My friend has them in his 98 and loves them, but he's not hardcore into cars and mustangs like a lot of members here.

go with the 4.10's dude, u won't regret it. I was hesitant at 1st but i friggin love mine

96gtstang&V6 · September 15th, 2007, 02:51 AM

i thought 3.73 were the way to go because 4.10 run high rpm

do u mean u run out of gear with 4.10's?

that really only happens when u go boost.

a race is pretty much over past 100 MPH IMO. Faster then that and ur just endangering to many people lives. U should be able to do about 120MPH with 4.10's. Do u really need to go faster then that?

Fryrice · September 15th, 2007, 03:04 AM

4.10s for real world n/a applications .Anything over that should be mainly for track use. 4.10s give you the best of both 1/4 miles and street.

96gtstang&V6 · September 15th, 2007, 03:05 AM

noo i mean the rpms will run higher than normal. is that true? the higher gear ratio the higher you rpm?

like if your just cruising around 60mph, the rpm will stand higher than normal. am i making any sense? lol

G.T. Rags · September 15th, 2007, 03:07 AM

yeah......the rpms will be higher at 60 then what they were before

thats y u got an overdrive bro

96gtstang&V6 · September 15th, 2007, 03:09 AM

true...
i was just asking cause my friend got 3.73 on his 5.0 auto and his rpms are way higher. i didnt know if it would be the same for a 96gt. thanks

well is ur car stick or auto?

if it's stick the rpms are gonna be a little bit dif. an auto only has 4 gears were as the manual has 5.

96gtstang&V6 · September 15th, 2007, 03:22 AM

yeah i have a stick. so it wont be as much as a difference if i got 3.73
