Rear Gears
 
What would you think would be the best rear-end ratio for a daily driven car with around 225whp?

Depends...auto or stick? I think 3.73s or 3.55s are good for either. If it's an auto, 4.10s aren't out of the question.

It's a stick and I don't plan on running on slicks.

About how much torque are you talking about? At how many RPM's does the motor make its peak numbers? Is this a mustang you are talking about, if not what kind of car (weight and everyting)?

This is for an 84 Supra. Torque is 200ft/lbs at 3000 and HP is 225 at 5000. It weighs 2800lbs(without me...with me about 3060).
