Pumpkin w/350Evo 3.9 FD & Nismo cover for Stock VLSD

Mods, I'm not sure how to take pics of something internal like gears?

My current pumpkin (rear diff housing) is a VLSD and has the 350Evo 3.9 Final Drive gears already installed, as well as a Nismo finned rear differential cover on the back. I want to trade the entire pumpkin with another member for their stock pumpkin (with or without VLSD).

The 350Evo 3.9 FD Gears retailed for $800. The Nismo finned rear diff cover retails for $150. Labor for the install of everything is around $300. So new, this setup would cost you $1250+.

When I bought this, I traded my stock VLSD pumpkin for this one, plus I paid an additional $800 and paid for shipping both ways. I'd be willing to do the trade this time around for much less, only $600 + your stock VLSD pumpkin and you pay for shipping both ways. I would need the buyer to ship first. When I receive it, I can have my shop do the swap right away and then ship out this one.

As you can see in my sig, I'm parting everything out and moving onto another project.

The FD changes your gear ratios for quickler acceleration, basically. The finned diff cover keeps everything cool.

I'm willing to trade with someone out of town, as long as they can ship first, which means like a week of downtime for their G or Z. I had to do the same when I got this initially.

To clarify, this mod doesn't give you more hp, but the gearing change equals faster take-off and acceleration. It's one of the best mods I ever did, and I consider it a must-have for all N/A and S/C cars, and great for Turbo setups too.

I was told it does, so if your research confirms that, I'd def appreciate you letting me/us know Thanks for the interest, but I can't sell it outright, it has to be a swap, since my car still needs to have a rear diff.

Just to clarify, since I've been asked more than once now: The 3.9FD is only for 6MT transmissions, and doesn't work on 5AT.

I've also opened this up for trade with your pumpkin whether you have VLSD or not. 1st post updated.
