It all depends on how cheap you can find a manual 370Z differential. I got lucky and got one for a little under 400 bucks. As far as the rest of the stuff goes, here is the approximate amount they cost.

Gears (4.08s)= $535
Install kit = $300
Fluid = $30
370Z manual diff = best price you can find one for
Labor/install = $500, depends on your local shop.

So you are looking somewhere around 1400 +tax and whatever price you can find a used/new manual 370Z diff.

While you have the pumpkin off the car and opened up, may want to think about upgrading to a nice LSD. Kill two birds with one stone. So some of you may want to factor that into the price as well.

Not cheap, but really good mod. I had these gears and a Quaife diff installed on my 350z. Still debating whether or not to do it to my 370z.

You drop the diff yourself you can save about $400
