Look on your drivers side door jam, or the interior of your engine compartment (since your a first gen) then match it up here . This will tell you the ratio.

i've never done this myself(lazy) but, i uderstand that you can elevate the rear end and turn the drive shaft manually. count how many rotations the tire makes to one rotation of the DS. or is that count rotations of DS to one rotation of tire?.......oh never mind
