My VR30 transmission is completely stock from a 4k mile Q50. I have the fast intentions billet flex plate and a external transmission cooler. May look into internal upgrades on the VR30 transmission later on if I feel it is lacking or if it gives me any issues.

How is shift speed and qualify vs the stock 370Z 7AT?

So far compared to the stock VQ 7AT it is much firmer shifts and seems to be faster shifting.

Currently my Z is getting a OSG diff with all the nice upgrades added in at the diff shop.

Next is getting a better trans setup.

This will probably be my next move when my 7AT craps itself...

My only problem is this: it's nearly impossible to find people that "care" and do quality work on vehicles they don't own themselves.

Who did the work on yours? I'd rather drive my car a few states away, drop it off, rent a car, drive home...let them have it for a month, so they're not working on it while drunk/hungover/angry at the world. :driving:

With IPT valve body on my vr swap, my tires chirp and traction control flashes real quick every WOT shift in at least 1-3 and I’m awd. It’s lighting quick and firm, instant grab.

Might as well do it yourself. It's probably the frustrating install you can do to your Z. And that's coming from someone who has a BP turbo kit...
