^Yeah, I had to ask him some questions on the front bumper too... I think he knows more about the part than Kris does

Now someone come help me install my new pumpkin!

 

You know how to reach me

 

^Thanks Nate! Just made some time with my bro. Hopefully be the end of next weekend, I'll need new rear tires cause I will have burned right on through them

 

Vroom vroom!!

 

Sweet! What did you get?

I've been trying to talk my cousin into buying a better one for his Z so I can have his 3.5:1 VLSD

 

I got a 3 point fizzle

 

I please can haz quick Cliffs Notes edumacation on what this item is, what it does and why it's awesomecoolapplesauce?

 

^The final drive ratio of mine and chris' cars is 3.3 to 1 and an "open diff" aka "one-wheel-wonder"

The one Chris is getting (and the one I want) is a 3.5 to 1 so it's a little 'quicker' ratio. Gives the car a little more kick off the line, and only bumps a tiny amount off the top speed (of 150... who needs to go 150???)

It's also a limited-slip differential, so it puts power much more evenly to both rear tires, instead of burning it all off on one.

 

^ what's the average price?

 

^Beats me! I just know my Cuz will cut me a really sweet deal on his

 

^

Why not get the 3.7 or 4.08 :P

 

^They're harder to come by... I would probably like the 3.7, but since my cousin actually does plan on upgrading his, I'll just get it.

Besides, what I'm mainly after is the LSD, I care more about that than the ratio.

 

How difficult of an install is it? It probably voids the warranty too, right?

 

^Warranty? We don't need no stinkin warranty!

IDK how hard the install is, I would probably DIY though, can't be any worse than an engine swap on a trans-am, and I've done that.

One of my friends did a rear end swap on his Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS all by himself.
