ZFreies Build and Questions
 
I figure ill start a thread of my build progress, ill get everything uploaded later, but I have a question.

Want to ditch my 2xx gears in the back. I have a 2 series carrier, Who make a 3.23 or a 3.42 gear that i could us in my 10bolt, and what brand should i go with and why.

Looks like the only one that will fit is part # G875342X which are 3.42. Now where to buy from?

I have an a4 and trying to avoid 3.73s. ill see if summit sells the 342 2 series.

:edit: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MGR-G875342X/ Looks like those are them. I just HATE my 2xx gears out back, i have a massive dead spot, like at 35-50 mph in my current gears.

In all seriousness, how much mpg did you lose switching. My fear with 3.73s is high way travel; noise and mpg. I plan on running a not so muffled exhaust in the near future and don't wanna shoot my self while on the high way.

No idea but if your worried about mpg don't spend a penny on your camaro and go buy a daily driver or hybrid then when u have apare money mod the camaro

I have a DD civic that gets well into the 30s, doesn't mean I wanna go from getting low 20s on the highway to low teens with 373s because I don't have an m6.

Also, any idea what kind of rpms you turn on the high way at say 70?

My84Z 05-19-2011 03:37 AM

I don't see the mpg problem but at 70 it's like 2500ishgiver or take a couple i don't drive it often. Also unless your turning 5k 10 mpg is huge lol
