Helloooooooooo guys,
I hope you guys give me some specs on your cars gear ratios.
I am still trying to work out what the differences are between my car and your guys babies.
ok, I don't know what make of gearbox I have on the car, but these are the ratios that it is set to:Manual transmission
Gear ratios: 1st - 3.063
Gear ratios: 2nd - 1.826
Gear ratios: 3rd - 1.286
Gear ratios: 4th - 0.975
Gear ratios: 5th - 0.756
Gear ratios: Reverse - 3.153
Final drive ratio: - 4.176
I am trying to figure if it is performing correctly or not.
At the moment, the car is topping out at about 92 miles per hour (148 kph) (clock speed, I don't know the read speed, this was a road test) just as I touch the red line about 7500 rpms on the third gear.
Then on the 4 gear, at about 7000 rpms, I am getting about 111.5 mph (180 kph).
Does these figures seem a about correct or too low.
I would appreciate any feedback guys, even if you cars are modified a bit, I would still like to know what your speeds are at the different gears and rpms. This could help in determining if a car under performing for people like me that find it very diffeicult to get to Dyno's.
Thanks,
Mervyn G
