Final Drive
Hi
I am thinking in install a final drive in the oem s2000 rear diff.
I read that some people install mazda parts?
How you do that? You have part numbers / or you know what to buy??
Thanks

I got my 4.77 gears from Kiaparts.com part #0K01427110. You will also need a "Yellow Box" to calibrate your speedometer so it is not off. Or look up Hardtop Guy, he also sells the parts but can be a hit or miss on getting a hold of. Good luck!

It seems to me you can do all the research you want, but until you have spent time in your own car on your own roads, its hard to tell how one might like them or hate them. I have researched for over a year and decided they might be for me. But I will find out this spring. I take it your opinion on them is different? (not to get off topic)

The only issue I have with mine is watching the rpm's hover at 4500/5000 rpm while on the fwy in so cal just going with fast lane traffic so I drive a bit slower now. Other than that I love them. I've had friends that went 4.7 to 4.4 hated it an went right back to 4.7. I kinda wished I could track a 4.67 fd down since i am running on 16's and it's a little more buzzy than with my 17's which are slightly different diameter total.
