I strongly recommend having the VLSD. It's not as weak as many say and my VLSD has over 75K miles and it works as designed.

 

www.car-part.com. Search "carrier". From there the listing should tell you the ratio, if it has VLSD, and the miles.

 

^ would i be looking for the 3.5 on a 350z or a G35 and which year? i went to the site and i didnt see if it said it had VLSD or not

 

I bought my 3.5 from a member on here, bikinilust. He will post up a 3.5 for time to time so you might want to PM him just for grins to see if he can find you one. Then you could look at junkyards in your area, or search all G and Z forums for one. You are looking for a pumpkin that came off the 6MT Gs and Zs from 05-06. Not sure about the 03-04.

 

^ how much did it run you to install it or did do it yourself?

 

FSM says that the 06 has the 3.54 rear end.

 

That's one of the only things I didn't so myself. Cost $120 at a local performance shop. It's a relatively easy swap if you have a lift and 2 people doing it. The pumpkin weighs ~ 90# and you have to pull and push it at an awkward angle going in and out. Could be done on jack stands but I didn't want to mess with it.


Hmmm I wonder if that's for the 6MT? I am pretty sure all 03-06 5AT sedans came with the 3.3. Now you have me guessing.

 

Im already thinking about getting 3.7FD gears come spring time lol

 

05 FSM (coupe) says AT has 3.3 and MT has 3.5. 06 FSM says both have 3.5. Sedan 06 FSM says 3.5 for both as well.

 

www.infinitihelp.com will tell you which year/model came with which gearing.

If you have the sport package, then it is a 3.5 (coupes at least)

 

^i just went to infinitihelp.com and i looked at the FD for the AT it says 3.3 and the 6MT is 3.5....but i dont see where it says sports package AT has the 3.5 if thats the case then i have a 3.5

 

I thought I saw that info on there before

If you do have the sports package (19" rays, orange stitching on steering wheel, aluminum pedals, sport suspension.......etc) then your car should have came with the 3.5 VLSD.

 

^ ok thanks for confirming...i have the 3.5 VLSD

 

I have an 05 sedan with the sports package and I had a 3.3 before I switched to the 3.5.

 

hmm so i also have a 3.5, wonder how much of a difference getting the 3.7 would be or even worth it maybe i should just go for a 4.0FD

and i plan on doing the VB upgrade soon too

i guess im going to the junk yard and go looking for a 6mt g37 coupe/sedan or 08 5AT G37 coupe see how much i can get the pumpkin for
