AP2s were made for old US citizens, I'm convinced.

and a/b the quarter mile times: I've seen 13.7s w/ stock FD gears and light mods....4.57 is only getting 13.3?
Are you kidding me? 13.7 to 13.3 with only gears is almost unbelievable.

My brother and I have settled this numerous times..both stock..mine being an 03 and his being an 05. It is almost dead even every single time. Whoever gets a better jump from the first gear roll is usually up by a fender or so. Most of the time me being the winner =]

Come on Guys,let's be serious for a minute.
Everybody knows,the AP-2 is a DILUTED sports car(drivetrain,8k redline,suspension,etc...),specially made,for big,overweight american drivers.
The AP-1,is the REAL McCoy.!!!

R=Revised.

The first 4.57 were noisy and the 4.57R gears are made differant. I can tell from a picture of the pinion what gear set it is.

Thanks
