Do you know which gears you have? 3.15's or 2.73 - your glove box code should tell you, It'd be a G92 and a G90 = 3.15 performance rear

If you have the 2.73's my suggestion is to go with the 3.42's like many of us have. You can get a very good condition one here on the forum in the Parts For Sale Section for around $500 and this will take a 1/2 second easy of your time and while you at it have installed a 2800 - 3200 stall - you wont regret it and it does not have that parking lot slip like you think it may, they are very tight and since we have lock-up converters on the freeway the MPG does not suffer - combined you can get to 3/4 - 1 full second dropped on you ET in the 1/4

Call me and I will explain how to fix the ABS / Taction Control Light problem you are having and I will show you my post too on how to repair

Same trouble with mine -I was able to fix it as outlined in the thread so follow the pages up, you can also call me at 661-406-7516 -

Your problem is in the clip Male/Female parts - you'll see

See the Electrical Thread here: Go to post #806 on Page 41 (This should be the direct link:

Your Et and trap speed are right in line,with some practice your 60 ft times will improve and you should be able to drop a few tenths.BTW still have those hard runflats on?
