4.77 Gears

The install cost, depends on the shims. Rick's ship their gear kits with the shims that were the right size for a bench test. However, if they're not right for your diff, the complete shim kit from Honda costs around

one thing i picked up from reading the yank threads on this, is that engine wear could possibly be increased, as you will be running at higher rpms for an equivalent speed with the new gearing...
dunno how significant this increase would be though...

How does the 4.77 compare, do you recommend it? and how much quicker is the acceleration?
im not really bothered about more wear as i don't really use the car that much, equally i don't use it much on the motorways either. I am looking for increased acceleration and don't care about top end so much.

You could really experiment with the gearing and acceleration and stick a set of re-drilled old 10" mini wheels on the back. If there is any ground clearance left of course.
