Default Just bought Nismo 4.083 final drive

I have read many great reviews about these, I can't wait to get them. Once I get my next paycheck I'm getting a Nismo 1.5 LSD. Then once the professionals at Z car garage in San Jose install it all the fun will begin =]


Current mods: performance sparkers, Megan racing headers, true dual exhaust with y pipe, Plenum spacer, short ram intake.
Cosmetics: GT style spoiler, powder coated flat black 18inch Nissan touring rims, black door handles, black exhaust tips, and I painted my oem calipers orange to match my lemans sunset body color.

So really nothing then. I guess you were trying to make up a new pimp fresh ebonics term or something.

Not every car. Diesel cars use glow plugs.

Compared to all your other mods, these gears are the best thing you'll have on it

haha okay you got my there with the diesel.
and yes i was trying to make up a hip new ebonics term...it failed

and to stanleylee i heavily debated the 3.9 or 4.083 im gonna stick with 4.083, im ready for the hassle i may sometimes have with it being so short but from what i like it will pay off for me in the end.

it was raining the other day and i got some hella awesome pictures of my Z with rain drizzling down on it, with awesome atmospheric lighting in a lot ontop of a hill. its got a nice setting to it IMO

Naw I love how it looks, I think it completes the curves of the car and personally I hate the little ones that most people get.

no, but obviously you are blind to the fact that we all have our own opinions.
I know some people dont like it, i could care less. especially since i like it, and my friends and all my co-workers like it. plus other random people.

so if you dont like it, i am okay with that. but there is no need to go around posting smart *** remarks.
