Good to hear that you are still very satisfied with them. I am still on the fence on getting these since I don't track my car at all. My Z is just a daily driver.

 

My G is also a DD. It makes driving that much more fun.

I say go for it bro.

 

Id like to run into you

I agree with everything you said. At the same Time I did a Nismo LSD. SPL solid mount and whiteline mount inserts. Single best combo done to my car over everything else.

 

Great to hear you still love the gears. Its funny I posted about wanting to get these and still have not done it! Now I am sure that this will be my next mod for sure. I thought about a tune, flywheel/clutch, but really everything is running so well I think gears will be the best bang for the buck.

 

good review..id love to get some gears but im just not sure how it would work out with my vortech and traction and i wouldnt be bumping the rev limiter so my gears would be sooooo short...idk..good review though glad ur happy

 

What are you revving to Tyler

 

^^just 6600 rpm...I wont raise it

 

So dumb question but after reading through a few of these threads I still am lost on if it makes your 0-60 time faster? I understand you have to row throw gears faster therefore most likely decreasing your speed but I am still curious. I know 0-60 means absolutely nothing, but I am just curious.

 

Yes it does

 

The milege should be less than the stock, right? Because when you go 80mph w/ 3000RPM on stock, you'll be at higher RPM on same speed with the 4.08 gear.

 

Correct. The RPMS will be higher. Negligible MPG.

 

dont be scared just do it. i will build me another one soon enough. i sure do miss it.

 

it is a popular mod for NA. I have no complaints. I use a Nismo finned diff cover, Quaife LSD and Amsoil diff fluid. Not a peep from my rear!

I need to install a solid diff bushing next. I luv the increased pull. I didn't notice much of a decrease in mpg. Its like anything else, if you beat it/rev the **** out of it, your going to have sh*tty gas mileage. I have taken some road trips with my car and in 6th gear the Rev's @ 80 mph the exhaust tone is comfortable.

If I were to install a GTM supercharger I would leave the 4.083 gears in the car for sh*ts and giggles. See if I like it or not. If not I can have my stock gears installed.

what is that for again?

 

Bump for an old thread but had a questions, I have an 08 HR and was thinking about getting gears for my next mod but little hesitant. First, I will be doing a mix between drag and auto X events but won't be a lot during the year. Read the overheating issue, just curious if this was a one time issue that was fixed with a better install and fluid or should I also purchase the diff cooler, I would buy the finned cover regardless but not sure if it is necessary for the cooler. Last question, I have the stock VLSD, would you guys recommend to upgrade or will the gears be fine for my occasional track use. Sorry for the questions.
