gears 4.56
 

hello guys in s2ki,

i have an issue and i thought you might help. i installed rick`s gears to my s2k for three months. it changed the final drive ratio from 4.10 to 4.56, so the speedometer reading`s arent accurate now and show faster speeds than actual. i know that the difference is 11%

but my question is: does also the odo meter gets inaccurate too? or not. does the odo record more miles than the actual milage by 11% too? if so thats a big problem! LOL

thank u for reading, please reply and tell me what do u think

yes, the odometer is affected. I believe the speedo and odometer run off the same signal.

It is 32 : 7 = 4,5714285714285714285714285714286 :p
Or 4.57 ;)

You need a Yellow Jacket or Yellow Box to correct your speedo / odo.
Both are available online.
How do you like your 4.57r's?

:hello:

thanks for the reply.. i noticed that my milage moves so fast!
anyone who has gears on his car to confirm that?

the gears are simply ammazing, thanks for the correction. lol
the car feels torqier in daily driving. and i think that the car is still capable of more than a 1/4mile good runs. at most 600meters and after that the acceleration wont be strong. starting off the line is significantly better :)

my mods include: j`s racing old 63mm cat back, t1r test pipe, j`s racing headers, aem cai, all flowing well with the gears. mid range is well improved with the headers.

confirmed

Get the Yellow box.

Yes, it does add more miles on the ODO much quicker. I have the 4.77's and it pained me to see my mileage rack up so quickly, until I installed a Yellow Jacket that is :thumbup:

what's stopping people from over-correcting the speedo / odo and therefore make the mileage move slower? like, half the speed?

ehem. im screwed! lol coz i drove it for so many miles since i installed my gears. but who cares! im not selling da car so i dont care about resale value. what matters most is that i keep it in a good condition.

thanks for the confirmation :hello:
