Need gear ratio information

Sorry if this has been asked before, but hear me out. I'm using this old DOs program called Cartest, it's a vehicle acceleration simulator. From what I hear, it's fairly accurate in regards to the aceleration times. It also has a function for fuel economy, speed in gears, skidpad rating, 1/4 mile time, etc. I've got almost all the info I need, as the version I downloaded has a 1992 Metro included in the list of cars, but I want to make sure the gear ratios are right.

Can't really nail that one right on the head. Suzuki had a bad habit of changing tons of things mid-model year, and on different models. The only real way is to take the specific one you have apart, and start counting teeth and doin' the math. (trust me on this one, I've had about 15 of these apart, and never seen one the same) They liked to toy with them, and see how different gear ratios affected economy and driveability is my guess.

Well, this program has the gear ratios for the 92 Metro listed as follows. 1st: 3.42 2nd: 1.89 3rd: 1.28 4th: 0.91 5th: 0.76 and the final drive is 4.10. Interestingly enough, this program also has an entry for the 89 Swift GTi.
