The exact speed depends on the tires. Using the specs I have, which are supposedly based on the stock configuration of the car, they are as follows: '94 Miata, redline 7000 RPM, 4.1 diff ratio, 185x6

Your web page shows exacly what I got in my calculations, when I used the tire's size numbering. Incidentally, I use my own home-baked Excel spreadsheet in case anyone's interested. Power & torque, g

The only person I ever saw consistently get faster times while doing the course on power oversteer was Kevin Stevens -- always entertaining to watch! For everyone else (at least for me) it seems that

At 90 MPH, I just assumed it could never be 1st gear. It's got to be in 2nd gear at least -- and even that's some pretty tall gearing. --Original Message-- From: owner-ba-autox@autox.team.net [mailto

It's not uncommon for car manufacturers to use really tall differential ratios to lower the revs to avoid gas guzzler taxes. In doing this they save money for every purchaser, even the ones who chang

If it were street legal, I'd be tempted to buy it. Performance exceeding a McLaren F1, for about 2% of the price. What a deal! I have a car for sale that is 3.9 lbs per hp, and no one wants to buy it

Well put, Katie. I would like to add something to the part about the terrorists using "logic". Logic is just a way of connecting ideas, it does not provide a starting point or fundamental principle.

That could change my approach. If the job is easier when replacing the entire halfshafts, and I can buy them for around $150, then I would be inclined to do the job myself. I'll have to call a servic

I called them today and they said it would cost around $600 total to do both axles. If the parts alone are $500, then the $100 or so for the labor seems like a good deal. Thanks for all the info, and
