Quetion About Revolution 6-Speed Gear Long 0.795 - SE3P RX-8 Zenki

Hello there,

I have made some research about the 6-Speed Gear Long 0.795 item but couln't find much information about it unfortenetly.

Series I oem gear ratio is 0.843. So the number is bigger. I think 0.795 is a longer gear ratio.

Revolution 6-Speed Gear Long 0.795 - SE3P RX-8 Zenki - RHDJapan

But i am not sure what is that for Please can anyone enlighten me about it

I know that 4.777 is for acceleration. But couln't understand what this is for

2004 Mazda RX-8 4-Door Coupe Manual Gear Ratios Calculator, MPH, Top Speed - DragTimes.com

use that calculator. plug the new(revolution gear ratio) into the 6th gear slot. It basically makes 6th gear longer. This is good for MPG's when cruising.

do you have the power? I doubt a stock(or modded) rx8 will ever see those kinds of numbers for top speed. If you have the power to overcome the drag then it can be for both. Otherwise, most likely just an economy mod.

Yeap, my car stock was slower in 6th than 5th. I couldn't get over 150MPH in 6th gear. It'd do about 155 in 5th. Technically you could do upwards of 190 if you had the power on stock gears.
