G'day there
as i have details of the gear ratios for MY car it does not make much difference but it makes a difference, as i am a diesel lover and my past 4 cars were diesels ( but i have a petrol/gas car now) it makes a difference at the rev counter at any speed, for MY car the ratios are....final drive petrol 4.158... diesel 3.737
1st 13.753 13.222
2nd 7.954 7.149
3rd 5.231 5.025
4rd 3.920 3.838
5th 3.173 3.114
Reverse 13.433 12.545
In my diesel cars the rev counter at 90kmh (60mph)was about 1950 rpm but in my petrol/gas car it is about 2400rpm so it makes a difference , and that is what i was hinting at.
Hope i get some interesting feed back.
Greetings,
Eddie.
