And you know it. Always better to buy from someone you know, especially a guy that drives the same car and color you drive...lol

About the best you can get for the Z is the drexler lsd, and i would say os giken would be more worth it due on price..

Why are you installing a quaife?

I know good sir, I am just being silly. E-Diff's are stupidly awesome as far as the engineering behind them goes. The only E-Diff that I know if in production for road cars is in the Ferrari F-430 and 458 Italia, only ones that I know of anyways. I haven't even heard of an aftermarket E-diff.

The ATB Quaife has been around forever, and during this time has been honed in the conditions that I plan to use my Z, road courses. Time Attack is what this diff was made for, and the life time warranty helps out too

Yes the Quaife doesn't have the glamor of being rare and hard to get, but it is tested and proven technology that has been, in part, responsible for some of Redline's lowest times ever recorded.

The autox event. Didn't realize there was something else going on too.

For the autox, they need a few more to sign up or else they will cancel!!


Really only 3 Z guys going to this one?

Jason/Jake...question.. I got my cubbie door piece today. As I like to be different, it has a big Z in the center. I want to back the opening with transparent blue and drill 3 holes like the Z on emblems.I'm afraid plexiglass is too thick. Any suggestions? Also is there an easy electrical source behind the cubbie for some small white LED light to hook up ?

You could try what I did. I went to a motorcycle place and asked if they had any returned helmets, or any sort of deals and they sold me one for around $70 because it had some places where the lining was coming apart from broken thread. I just slapped some scotch tape over it and it's been fine for a couple years.

Do we have any electrical engineers or car alarm technicians/experts here? I have a few questions that I need answered. If you're knowledgeable in that area, please PM me.
