i'd definately go 4.10 in a 6spd car. the difference from a 3.42 to a 3.73 wont be very noticeable. you have plenty of gears to play w/ so gas mileage shouldn't suffer too bad. i had 4.10's in my m6 car and thought it was the only way to go after that. go w/ the 4.10's... and break em in, then rip through the gears, then come back on the site and thank me and tell me how right i was! lol.

More time spent in my car I like stock gears lol.

4:10s are a total blast I've ridden in car with the 3:73s not much a change. Still felt the 3:73s

4:10s get my vote.

I'll be running 4.10s in my car with a 28" tall tire and a 700R4 transmission, have rode in cars with 3.73s and 4.10s and 4.10s are deffinatly the way to go. IMO

When I bought my car it came with 3.73s. It makes a difference but when I blow out this rear end I will definitely go with the 4.10s. 6th gear is the greatest thing since buttered bread. Your gas mileage won't suffer much at all. Huge difference off the line if you can get traction!

3.73's if u plan on making decent power, I just broke mine again. 3rd time on KD's. I had 4.11's, since the car will be over 450 rwhp in about 2 weeks, figured i would go back down a bit, traction is a huge issue with those gears, as is reliability. But they are a ton of fun

I put 4.10s in and love them. No issues with drag radials & 4,500rpm clutch drops. It helped my 60's SO much!
