Let me know what you guys, who have experienced them, think about changing the gear ratio.
This will probably be my next mod.

How is normal driving?
How is cruising?

 

It's good.

 

That's it?
What's good?

 

I had them,(well 4.57s).
Its good

lol but really no problems, great pick up, and car feels a little quicker

 

I vote for 4.56 I'll probably do this next year. Anyone know if the GB is still on for these?

 

Dave>>> track whore.

Seriously Dave, i don't think i know you anymore

You better have time for us or you're gonna get it.

 

4.56= DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I don't think the 4.56's are worth it. If you want to go for a shorter final drive and really make a statement go with the 4.77's. I've driven Pinyo's car and it made a world of difference.

The other benefit is that 4.77's are less than 50% the cost of 4.56's.

 

for daily driving i'd stick with 4.56

 

I'd actually disagree. For daily driving, the 4.77's offer more of a "punch" from a standstill and the beginning of each gear change. It's feels like an "amplified" 2004 2.2L s2000.

The 4.56 just don't offer enough differentiation for daily driving. I'd argue that the 4.56's shine on a roadcourse though. They offer up better acceleration than stock 4.83, without sacrificing too much the top end (in case you ever see fit to go 138+ mph).

The 4.77's give up much more top end, however, for me and 90% of the S2000 drivers, we mostly won't see the other side of 127 mph. If I ever get the car going that fast ever again, I'll just explain to my passenger and the cop that pulls me over that I was limited to 127mph because of the ECU.

For daily driving, give me acceleration down low...
