Default Final drive ratio??

Anyone know whats the final drive ratio for the first generation GS300? Im planning in installing a GS300 rear end in my IS300 to lower my final drive ratio which is 3.9.

so, your current final drive ratio is 3.90? That's pretty good for acceleration. The final drive ratio in the GS is probably the same or has a lower number (aka higher ratio, which has slower acceleration and higher top speed). What do you want to gain from the change?

also remember, that in 96, the GS300 had FIVE speed tranny, before that it was FOUR. i'm quite sure the two have different final drive ratio's
