you can get the noises with the RS as well, just turn your lockup% to maximum

-nick (whose rear end sounds like its going to fall off, and loves it)

 

I might love the sound aswell. I have just never heard one.

 

hey TwiZted, do you have any videos of your car driving around with the 3.9FD?
How exactly does it help the car, and what difference will you notice once installed? Any downsides to doing this mod?

Thanks in advance.

 

you loose top end.. i wonder by how much.. i love top! it would be nice to see a video with a 3.5 vs a 3.9 on the highway and frome a stop to get a good feel of how much the performance is

 

you lose top end?? Do you really need to go 180+??

 

A 3.5 gears are wicked steep for the car and will not reach top speed anyway. You will redline around 160.

 

I would love to race a stock Z... Just havnt found one.. But I could prolly crush a Z with basic bolt ons.

 

When the rest of our of stuff gets completed...(headers and manifold) there be some really wicked NA 350Z's out there!

BJ ... keep me updated on your updated mods ... love 350EVO //


I just had the 350EVO 3.9 final drive installed .. and it is fantastic !!!!

 

I plan to be one of them What do you have in the works? Anything to hit 300 rwhp?? I dont wanna have to buy a nitrous kit to hit the 300 mark.

I dont have any videos of the car, things you will notice are as follows: getting thru the gears quicker, a slight decrease in gas mileage (maybe .5 mi/gal), your top speed is 157 (who goes that fast anyways). You will have slightly higher rpms in each gear, doing 85 in 6th gear your at 3500rpms. And stock EVo's and STi's are in the rear view mirror Oh yea, and get used to barking the tires in 3rd and 4th gear

 

I am in the same boat guys. Cant decide between fly/clutch with redline trainy fluid. Or final drive. If I go with the final drive do I need the front and rear pinion bearing,pinion seal and pinion nut and crush sleeve. Want to make sure I am getting the power down to the ground effectively.

 

You need the new nut and crush sleeve, the other parts arent required but I guess they wouldnt hurt any. The crush sleev from my understanding is the most important as the stock one cant be reused. You'll also need shims when the gear is installed so check beforehand with your installer if that will be an issue or if they will need to order them, I made this mistake and my car was in the shop for an unexpected extra 4 days.
