Drove her for the first time in a WEEK! now I wanna set up a cruise

 

i agree! only 2 more weeks at frys till i can join!

 

Intec Racing installed a TransGo shift kit in my 5AT G coupe last week, and I wanted to wait for a week of vigorous driving to report back: I've been chirping from 1st to 2nd, and from 2nd to 3rd, at WOT. The back end also wants to get out from behind me a little (nothing major). The shifts are extraordinarily crisp and immediate - they're not 'violent' as some may believe (note I'm naturally aspirated, so I'm not sure about the 400whp + G's). At low speeds, I don't even notice it's there. It goes through all the gears more readily in automatic, and I've read that it prolongs the life of the transmission (however I found no documentation other than ad/customer statements to backup that supposition). I would have done this the second I bought my G if I knew what an enormous difference it would make. My driving style would be considered 50% mild, 50% aggressive, and in both respects the shift kit's made driving a new experience. Thumbs up to Intec again. There are great articles on driver about it or at my350z. Peaceeeeee

 

nice, i have a 5AT also, how much was the kit? since i do the same vigorous driving % amounts and i drift a bit it sounds like a good mod for me

 

Phoenix what's up good brother! I bought the kit for about $230 from Summit Racing, and essentially you're paying for R&D - not many parts - but the parts and drilling you do make a HUGE difference. The advice that was stressed, and that i've read over and over from consumers on here/my350, from Summit Racing and from TransGo, was to have a knowlegeable shop/transmission shop install it. That being said, I think this kit would be ON POINT for a drifter - my tires are too wide, and too sticky to drift (unless it's a little wet out lol). I'll take you for a ride on Friday if you have a chance, I'll be at intec to get some work done...

 

Awesome dude would love to see how it feels, yep i be there getting my coilovers and LED conversion done so will have time to see looks like i found my next mod for sure this will be perfect for me with my drifting habit that i cannot seem to kick lol u rock brother!!

 

You're going to LOVE your new coils... Those made a gigantic difference for me too - AND the LED conversion, like we talked about, is going to make a huge difference... Friday's the day at Intec! I'm stoked for your new mods man, I'm really stoked to see how much you'll love the LED's + coils... Joe will be able to explain the shift kit in a much more technical and expansive manner, and we'll go for a ride so you can see the difference in responsiveness good brother!

 

awesome bro thx a ton cant wait for the ride to see what its like yeah cannot wait to get the coils on and the headlights converted Apexi goodness here i come lol

 

As it turns out I went the OEM route and picked up a set of 19" Rays with Kumbo Ecsta 225/40 fronts and 245/40 rears last night.

Anyone care to opine on how or if the TPMS sensors will figure themselves out ? Both my old 17s and these newer 19s have them

Thanks

 

im going to go down on friday around 6 to get my lug nuts

 

Got a hand wash @ Jim's...now you can see all the swirls again
