I was told it's a 6-8+ labor job and you have to have the correct shim size which can be a pain in the *** to figure out.

Why not get the gears installed first then the S/C later? This way you can see how much of a difference each one made on their own.

I'm going to agree with Sam on this one! Not only would it help you, but also the whole 370Z and G37 community! We are all anxiously waiting for some results and a review!

If he doesn't do it I will in the next 3 months. I've already installed the JWT clutch and flywheel.

+1.

For the best assessment of single mods, its best to install them one at a time. If you install gears and a supercharger at the same time, it will be harder to differentiate between the 2 mods.

This mod is fairly expensive regardless, per install and waiting time he is looking at close to a $1200 bill and if it is his only vehicle he could be without car for around a week depending on shim availability. So you can understand why he might be saving to have it all at one time to save on his vehicle availability, or having the need to purchase another full pumpkin to swap is also costly.

Yup, add in a real LSD and the price jumps up once again to Volk like status.
