Question 4.33 vs 4.30

Gents,
Between the 4.30 and 4.33 rear ends, what are your opinions or experiences?

Just by guessing, i would say there wouldnt be much of a difference besides the 4.33 having a little more pull. I asume when you compare them to the 4.77 there a big enough difference you could tell.

My question is which is an OEM part? I've seen both available and I would rather go with the OEM gears.

Yes 4.1 is Stock for a 5spd fd - 3.9 for an Auto. MAZDA does make a 4.30 (from an older 7, NA fc or RX-3sp maybe?) I think the 4.33s and 4.77s come from a couple different sources.

Are there really 4.33 and 4.30? I think they are one in the same. Just labeled differently(for some reason) by different stores. Now I dont recall if they are actually 4.3 or 4.33. I think the are 4.3. IO dont know where 4.33 comes from.
Maybe I am wrong.
