Chris, You actually need a 6x21 drive which is purple.
At 60 mph with your tyres new, (a speedo reads slightly higher as tyres wear) and diff ratio. Here's some data for you to compare with what you have now. 6x19 (white) reads 66 mph 6x20 (red) reads 63 mph 6x21 (purple) reads 60 mph (*) 6x22 (pink) reads 57 mph regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Chris Howard Sent: Monday, 11 February 2002 12:18 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: speedo's calibrating Hehe, unfortunately I have a 3.9 (he asked me).
