I have a 7at G37 and have the 4.08 installed. My 1st is 30 mph 2nd 45 3rd 60.

having to shift to 3rd to get to 60 seems a bit excessive. Should i drop to 3.69 or 3.9?

Correct me if im wrong but i read in some other threads that the AT Zs has a smaller last gear so if that is true the4.08 is big for the AT because the trans. already has a higher ratio so now it is too high i guess

i have a MT I think AT guys will give you more info.
