I got some goos driving in yesterday too. Was really surprised how fast it was. No tire spin off the line either. Got some up around 4-5k tho. Very happy so for. Weiboy glad to hear yours I thought mine was TOO loud LOL.
It's *very* fast, especially when shifted manually. Without AWD, mine spins tires in at least the first three gears. You can definitely see why the GT-R (our next closest relative) is necessarily AWD.

Ok gauges went in on Friday only thing was he did not do the tranny temp ( Where to put the sensor)??? Our trannies are sealed units and he was not sure about losing some tranny fluid. An one on here have a tranny temp on the 7 spd auto??? I should have some driving vids and a walk around today if the wife can help out. :-)
BTW, suggestion, get a spare belt and keep it in the car. This thing is tough on belts... they will wear out far faster than the 40k factory replacement schedule. And take note of the belt part #. Look for a Gates K071045.
Wouldn't be a bad idea to keep a relaly long breaker bar (for turning the tensioner) in the car either... in case you need to replace the belt out in the middle of nowhere.
