Well I got this install yesterday and wow!! This baby is made to go all out. Best mod to date so far. My driven experience has been taken to another level and now I'm ready for some true experiences at track now for I've never owned anything to this level. For more on my reviews check out my thread.

congrats on the diff install.

Boy I have to say again, this is a nice mod to have. Everyone should have this done. The car is just a different animal now. 10 times the fun.

Yeah, I can't wait to have a proper LSD in my car again.

Here are my results from recent tune. Pretty happy with the results. The car pulls harder and threw the hole range now. If you don't already know Forged Performance uses a Dyno Dynamics dyno which reads lower than some. Earlier in my journal I posted charts of my results from a dyno jet at 289whp with my current mods (before tuned).

Great updates! I love the brakes!

SPOHN · 04-22-2011, 07:21 PM

Just installed these this past week. Had them on my 350 also. This is a great mod to have IMO. None of that hood prop crap.

SPOHN if you used that threaded hole I told you about you wouldn't need those front silver brackets.
And where are the plastic covers?

SPOHN · 04-22-2011, 07:45 PM

I looked where you said, there where holes but they weren't threaded. I guess I could still go back and thread them. I'm doing away with the covers. This car is eventually going to be stripped down. Do you have a pic I could see? The hole I see is also bigger than the little ball and stud I have that came extra with the kit.

Gimme a few minutes and I'll post it here.

Here's another vid of my exhaust on the dyno being wounded out. This is with GTM TP's and Greddy TI-C exhaust with silencers removed.

Baer383 · 04-22-2011, 08:12 PM

Here is 2 pic's I was wrong they are not threaded just a hole I put the ball thru it and put a washer and nut from underneath the strut tower.As you can see I drilled the holes for the same bracket you have but didn't use them.

SPOHN · 04-22-2011, 08:22 PM

Ok. Yea, that hole is not threaded per say. But The stud I have might thread itself in there. I'll have to see Sunday for it's at my dads house at the moment. I hope this works. Thanks for taking your time to do this. Repped.

Which one to you guys like the best? 1...2....3

christian370z · 04-25-2011, 06:11 PM

3 gets my vote! I like it because the shape of the Z is most clearly defined.
