It was a busy day of Modifying!

Started my day by picking up a set of 15 mil Ichiba spacers for the G, which will put me at +2 in the front of my Volk Gt-7's. While I was at it I picked up a 20 mil set for the rear, which will put me at + 4. Traveled up the road to another local shop and found a killer deal on a 3.5 diff. Being an auto and only having 3.3's (And here's the kicker) they informed me they could do everything installed and out the door for only $600! Most places I find charge that just in labor just to get the diff out! I was in and out in about an hour twenty minutes. Just for the heck of it I asked if they had any used black 06 auto shift ***** and they did. Bam only 50 (Mint) bucks, I'm glad I didn't have to go to the stealership for this one. Did a little on the inside, outside, and some go fast. All in all I think it was a great day.

Edit: I will be upgrading to the 3.9 gears in another month. The 3.5's just don't cut it.

I took off the HKS exhaust because I'm tired of the drone. Hi flows and stock exhaust for me.

Did you not notice a difference between the 3.3 and 3.5?

Did I notice a difference? Yes (Slight) Would I recommend it to you? No In your case "I" would the recommend the 3.9 setup and save some heartache and money. I have researched and read some amazing reviews for that set up. Many say it should have come that way from the factory and so on. I just couldn't pass on such a inexpensive opportunity to try a 3.5 out. Lesson learned for me and maybe a few others.........
