lolol DO ET !!!!!!!!!!! its only 200 bucks :-)

 

Code still works but Ive spent so much on my car in the past month my wife might leave me if we get another package in the mail.

 

I haven't noticed any lag in downshifts. Smooth, quick shifts.

 

just to make sure, this kit works with the '06 5at as well, right?

 

For the 3 years ive had it i havent noticed any difference in the downshifts at all.

 

I'm installing my kit tomorrow, then I'll post up my impression FWIW.

 

Downshift is just faster, nothing else. Feels a little more harsh for 2003-2004 but not for the 2004.5+ because of the shift logic and rev matching is a little diff in your TCM.

 

Well, I only got to drive 5 miles in the rain after installing it today, but all I can say so far is WOW!!! Even after reading many other threads about it, I was still not prepared for just how quick and firm these shifts are. I like it

I thought that I might say something like "this is the way it should have been from the factory", but there's no way Infiniti will EVER make it like this, lol. Below about 3,000 RPM shifts seem unchanged, but above that they get progressively harder. My half worn stock tires were useless against it...they spun well into 3rd (in the rain, mind you). I didn't notice any difference in the downshifts yet. Can't wait to see how it does on dry roads. By far my best mod yet!

 

Still loving the firm shifting at WOT, but I've noticed that the medium throttle shifts (say around 3500) are a little firmer than what seems necessary to me. Those medium throttle shifts also seem to generate a rebound or rubber band type feeling, especially if I'm letting off the throttle right as it shifts.

The feeling is hard to describe, but I'm thinking that a firmer trans mount would help here. Does anybody make a urethane trans mount for the 5AT? I can only find one for the 6MT.

 

Do some hard shifting with the manumatic too...that is also improved. Let the rpm's rise then shove it into gear

 

Oh yeah, I keep it in manumatic most of the time, but I usually let it shift itself up to 3rd or 4th. I'll try manually shifting more. I find myself avoiding that middle ground...either drive it like a granny or all out. It's like Jekyll and Hyde

 

^lol...I'm the same way. Bipolar driving is where it's at
