Hey guys

My civics currently off the road to have a lot done.

Im having my gearbox done and gone for a 5.84 final drive.

Would this be OK for road use? I don't care about top end speed and I don't care about mpg.

I will be around 250bhp with a wavetrack lsd if that helps.

I quite liked the whine it made, mine was 230bhp and fine for driving around normally you're literally just a gear up. Only downside was carriageways/ motorways in 6th it would sit just below 4.5krpm at 70mph which for me meant I was in vtec so I would just plod along at 65 instead.
