getting more aggressive gears put into the s2k seems to make a humongous difference in acceleration, and they are a really popular mod for that car.
what's the reason that they are not as common in the Z?

gears are byfar the best mod u can get on the car if its NA.. cost is like 1500ish installed, but most people like to do othe rmods w/ the install to save money...and it ends up costing like 2500 for just a gear swap
Plus, the gears are expensive as eff.

it is not the gears that are expensive, it is the labor, since if you are only buying or upgrading the gears; you would have to get people to take the whole **** apart and install it PROPERLY. That alone can cost you way more than that of the $600 worth of gears. That's why you hear people mostly do swaps..

You guys are confusing gear sets with final drives. A properly set-up final drive in a Z can drop .2-.3 down the 1/4....some will not see anything at the track due to worse 60ft's because of 1st gear being shorter with a 3.9 FD, others who can take avantage of the FD can see more. I havent seen any good 6MT data yet, but it will work.
