Nobody's got time for 3.82 final drive tho haha.

It'll be F23 if and when mine breaks.

The 4.45 F35 is pretty awesome too if you can find one. Was killer on Cody's car.

Much lower final drive. Lower gearing.

Better acceleration when you find traction lol.
It's also allot easier on The gears due to the mechanical advantage. It hurts mpg which is why it went from a 4.05 (lsj) to a 3.86 (Lnf) but it's a minor trade off.

Third gear must be a monster on the 4.45

Yes better acceleration. But that's why I like the F23. Shorter gear ratios but 5th will still hang in the 2500rpm range at highway speed.

One of the main reasons they went with the 3.82 on the LNF instead of the 4.05 like on the LSJ is because of the lower rev limit on the LNF and different power curve.

The 4.45 is awesome, the 4.05 is decent, but too long for most setups, and the 3.82 is torturous for anything besides stock-ish setups. The 3-4 shift is what is the worst on the longer gearing trans'.

I've been finding them for around $650 or so for the higher mileage ones, and about $1,000-1,200 for low mileage ones. There are actually quite a few out there, so that's a relief! And Tainted, yeah I'll be sticking with the Fidanza setup. Only got 1,300 miles on it so far

Here's my new toy Stag Arms Model 3 with my Trijicon TA31 ACOG mounted on top of it. Been waiting for a real AR to put this on, so I took it off of my Colt AR22 to rightfully put it on my AR15.

And the rest of the arsenal. Colt AR22 (.22 caliber), Springfield XD-M .40, and Ruger LCP .380 (I carry this one on me almost all the time, its the little one.)

That's the winner right there. So what your saying is you need a couple Canadians to show you how to shoot it?

Shorter m4 or longer m16 barel? Looks m4 to me.


Hell of a nice gun.

Didn't realize that was still underway
Hopefully it's a just a boost leak. Wouldn't a boost leak normally cause it to go rich though? Unless it's under vacuum?
