Been a while since I updated this thread, cars running beautifully *knock on wood*, still a few things that need to be resolved. 1) Gears are too tall. Redlining 3rd

Been a while since I updated this thread, cars running beautifully *knock on wood*, still a few things that need to be resolved.

1) Gears are too tall.
Redlining 3rd at 140 mph which means the torque is just wasted. Ordered a 4.083:1 Ring & Pinion from a Frontier and some Whiteline Bushings (since mine are busted). Hope it will be enough. The frontier also has a 4.363:1 option if need be.

2) Shifter is hitting against center console on 2nd & 4th gear shifts.
Trimmed the OEM wood trim completely but it's still rubbing. I finally found a Nismo Short Throw Shifter that will work with the Pull Type Transmission. That should hopefully solve my problem.

3) My digital gauge needs a nice mounting location. CarbonSignal is currently fabricating something for me to go on the A-Pillar, pretty stoked about it.

4) I'm working on getting my OEM Tacho to work, dug up some Nissan files and will be getting my hands dirty with my next oil change.

5) The engine feels like its running out of breath at high rev's. Tomei Cams and a turbo upgrade are sure next on my list! Summer's right around the corner though so back to low boost settings.
