How do you know if you have gears? I bought my GT stock..All my mods done to it are listed in my sig...Lastnight i raced a 02 GT he had intake and exhaust NOthing else. We started from a dig, When he switched to 2nd i was still in first, when he switched to 3rd i was in 2nd gear at 5500rpm...My gears seemed a little longer than the other GT! So do i have gears or is it my mods?

 

if you had gears than i would assume you would shift gears before they did...

put your car in the air turn your wheels (by hand) and see how many times your drive shaft turns. i dont know how to get the results but other people on here do.

 

i believe it's as follows,

3.27 = 3.27 wheel turns for every 1 driveshaft turn

if you have 3.73 that means the tires turn 3.73 times for every 1 time the driveshaft turns.

4.10 gears = 4.10 wheel turns for every 1 turn for the driveshaft.

and so on and so forth.

also 03GT, if you shifted after he did then he probably had gears and you didn't.

 

ok. He said he didnt have gears, Just an intake and exhaust!

 

well if u had gears you would be shifting faster than he was, it could just be a that he got the jump on you or launched higher than you

 

He didnt get the jump on me.....We both hooked well to!

 

That makes sense!

 

It's the other way around! For every 1 turn of the wheel, the driveshaft spins 3.27/3.73/4.10 times.

 

no it doesn't! it's the other way around.
