ANMVQ........have you done the install and if so how is the Stillen SC performing on your AWD? Transmission shifting?

Trany shifts perfect. just hit 2500 miles on the kit. All is perfect. Love the fact there is no wheel spin. See sig for numbers TOO

You're lucky... with my RWD I am spinning the rears all the time... thru at least the first 3 gears (all I've had the nerve to spin). And it will chirp the tires in flat-out shifting thru at least the first 4 gears. AWD would be great!

Yea, I know, I see and here guys even with the autos doing nothing but spinning the rears. Hitting from a dig and just ripping away is NICE. I see the tire light blink every now and then but never fell a spin or hear the tires.

I'm satisfied with the traction control on this thing - it's not intrusive too badly except in the tightest slow-speed turns (such as autocross). Right now the traction control is either fully or full off from the factory. I would like to see a third traction mode available on the next iteration of the G for "performance".
And thanks to the copyright leaks that occurred this week, we know that the next G will also include a G35H and a G30T models - hybrid 3.5 (as in the M) and a turbocharged 3 liter V-6. So there will be more power and hopefully some weight loss as well.

ANMVQ.....That is awesome glad this set up works. I also have the AWD and want to order this kit for the summer. AWD rocks for the street!!

jwfisher

It sure does... you can absolutely see why the GT-R has to be AWD.

jwfisher......thanks for starting this thread and getting the feedback for the Stillen kit it has helped me make up my mind which route to go.

You'll love it… I just got back from a quick 50-mile drive in mine, all shifted manually thru the paddles. Incredible... and with my V1 also "protected".
Just make sure you get a good installer - preferably somebody who does this type of thing all the time.

I can't wait!! I was going to install it myself as I love building cars. I will keep you posted for this summer.

As long as you can handle getting into the fuel system... and the necessary reprogramming.

It's not the fuel system as making sure you plug-in your injectors.

Guys, I am thinking about insulting Stillen SC. Is there other supporting parts that i need to buy other than what already in the box?! if yes please give me a list.

Oil and transmission (if auto) coolers. A spare belt to keep in the trunk. And in your climate, replace the power steering oil with synthetic.
Then there is the suspension... The "S" suspension is ok as from the factory, but with so much more power you are going to need better traction. If 18s, then 255s or 265s on the back. If 19s, then 275s. And corresponding tires up front. With so much more speed you'll want a higher level of handling too, so consider sway bars at a minimum and springs/shocks at best.

JWFISHER, change the PS fluid to synthetic? Why.. Or is this why the last few days when I turn my wheel( Not rolling) it feels like it's binding, Just a little.
