How much did you pay for the Final drive?

army_rx8 11-21-2005 09:38 PM

^i second this..inquiring minds wish to know

IZoomZoomI 11-21-2005 11:32 PM

you guys can get the prices from japanparts.com

it's not the part thats expensive though its the shipping plus installation that makes it an impractical upgrade.

it may be the same shape but won't hold up to the power...that is why it was mentioned people were cryo hardening them for higher load usage

TeamRX8 11-22-2005 10:16 AM

very nice, please post more info on the ECU please. :)

I can only see this being an issue from a launch with very sticky tires (on a relatively stock 8). The Kia produces 30lb-ft more torque, redlines just north of 6000rpm, and is about 300lbs heavier. That final drive undergoes pretty heavy stress in the Kia.

QBallz 11-22-2005 04:40 PM

^ Also the Kia 4.778 gear is actually made by Mazda. I'm guessing that the FEED 4.778 if traced back is probably a Mazda 4.778 gear.

truemagellen 11-22-2005 04:49 PM

interesting, well then what is stopping us?

QBallz 11-22-2005 05:02 PM

I was all for doing this until I looked at my shop manual and realized that this is not a good idea for "do it yourself" unless you've had some experience working with differentials.

Now it looks like installing it would probably cost me more than a new Final Drive.

in a best motoring video there was a 400m comparison with a stock rx8 and a ms rx8 with 4.7 gearing in 400m meter race, there wasn't much difference as a matter of fact the ms rx8 clock in 15.1 where the stock on did 14.9. This was in wet roads though, but I doubt it's as powerful as a mod as you think it is :rolleyes: . 4.44 to 4.7 is not a crazy amount of difference in terms of gearing.

therm8 11-22-2005 07:10 PM

1.075:1 difference. going from 3.73 to 4.11 on an F-body is 1.10:1, and one heck of a difference. 4.1 to 4.56 on an S2000 (1:11:1) is one heck of a difference as well. 1.075:1 will be very noticeable, imo. There's more to that stock vs MS 8 story, I'm thinking.
