- Evening all! Why does a 1600 with a 5 speed seem slower (not as fast) than a 1600 with a 4 speed? Does the stock rearend gears need to be changed to make up for the lack of umph? Curious. Jim

- Check to see if the tach is turning the same revs. the 1600 engine may not be strong enough to power the 5th gear overdrive. -- Original Message -- From: "Doris" <dhbain@qwest.net> To: <datsun-roadst

- The gear ratios are different especially first gear. The 5 speed has a higher ratio, I think 2.97:1 for first, as opposed to 3.4:1 for the 4 speed. That's why it seems slower. Mike
