Considering I have to have the Z at a shop to do the 60K service (because my limited number of tools and knowledge of some of the parts) Im just going to let them do it. I trust the shop and have taken all of my cars there so Im not worried. I just did what was supposed to be and "easy job" on the Miata and it was terrible...

Thanks man!!! I feel like the pics don't even look as good as it does in person. I think blue wheels would look sick. I have thought about doing blue before. Do it and then we all get our z's together for a shoot!

These wheels would look sick on your car. How much does it run to get re geared?

Ahhh those are badass indeed! A bit toooo bright of blue for what im wanting to do next though. As for the gear, working for a Future dealership, since they own a nissan dealer, I might be able to get them cheaper since 4.08's were factory on some of their cars and fit right in. In the Xterra i believe. Install will also be fairly cheap since I can do it mostly myself and i'm friends with the owner of jaws gear and axle, i'm sure he'd help me out.

Oh, I know. It is all of the motherfuckers on HWY 65 that don't recognize that there is a fast lane and a slow lane.

Frontiers are the ones that have 4.08 i believe, your better off just getting everything you need from a dealer and not peice it together...makes life alot easier.

ive always wanted to put the 370 FD in. Its not as agressive as 4.08...its 3.75 i believe which is perfectttt

Difs are a direct swap too!
