I heard about the Mazda 4.44 gear for $270, but that may not have enough kick. And the 4.77 Kia gear for $306 is a great deal, but I am thinking 4.77 might be a little annoying on the freeway since my S is a daily driver. So basically he is right by saying Rick is overcharging people, but then again I have only seen the 4.56 (or 4.57) from Rick. Has anybody seen a 4.56 gear from another manufacturer?

The 4.56 gears for rick's are new to the market for the most part. They are alittle weaker then the old 4.57 according to rick's, to reduce the whine sound under acceleration. Someone said that 6th gear 75mph w/ the 4.77 gears run's 5500rpm, that's why to high IMO for a daily driver.

ricks 4.57 gears are actually made by Richmond which is a pretty reputable company. A lot of V8 guys use richmond for their gears
