Best Bang Per Buck N/A Upgrades
I need advice from you guys concerning my 05 track.
First of all I hate the first two gears in it, the car just revvs and moves slow as if a clutch in a normal car is messed (but my clutch is fine...).
The only mod I have done is the pop charger. I am soon going to buy the PowerLab spacer for it but I thought I would ask first about that revving (I am a noob in the 350z details, and this forum is so huge to research...).
Can a plenum fix that problem? For example the Crawford one? And what other N/A upgrades do you guys recommend?

I understand the concept. I have 4.08 gears. It just doesn't seem that this guy would like them from reading his post.

Haha. Yeah, I've got 4.08 gears too... Sometimes I don't even use 1st gear... Just go straight to 2nd. But over all, I'm very happy with teh gearz from an acceleration standpoint. I've caught several people off gaurd with them. I wouldn't even think of going back to 3.54 gears. :-)

The title of this thread is "Best Bang Per Buck N/A Upgrades." In my opinion, rear end gears are the best bang for the buck for an NA car. No question about it.
It seemed to me that the OP was saying his gears were already too low. That's why I said lower gears might not be for him. Maybe I read his post wrong... IDK...

how is this in the "N/A build" section?
This subforum of the Engine & Drivetrain forum is strictly for naturally aspirated engine builds - all motor. This includes, but not limited to, information regarding individual throttle bodies, pistons, cams, and other relevant parts information for a full N/A build.
Refrain from posting irrelevant and useless information, like ones about exhausts and intake.

because he was NOT asking for someone's advice on a turbo or S/C set-up....gears can be an addition to an NA build (OR a FI one)....i know it is not a stroker kit, or a long block build that was suggested, but it does fall under the ancilliary mods list on an NA list...
i would personally say that the gears would be a good call too, but they will definitely hurt his gas mileage, thus not really being the best bang for the buck-in a long term scenario...

the middle east is late in z models so i asume that his car is a non rev-up ,, my car is an 07 here in kuwait ,, but its not an hr or rev-up ,,
