I don't have them installed but have done a little research on them in the past. Most people will tell you it's not worth the 5% increase and to just get the 4.08s instead if you're staying NA. Also anyone please correct me if I'm wrong but it will mess up your syncro rev match if you care about that.

There is a cheaper 3.9 gearset from Nissan for the G37 verts if I remember correctly.

I would guess Tomei just rebrands the OEM 3.90 Frontier gears. I use to run the OEM 3.90. They felt about 1.5 tenths faster than the 3.70 stock final. If gas mileage is not an issue and you plan to stay NA, then the 4.36 final is the best.

So what does that do to your gas mileage? LOL and I am assuming this is not much better for a daily driver?

W/the 4.36 final gas mileage averages about 17 for me. I don't have a reflash/tune. These gears are way more fun than the stock 3.70 final for daily driving IMO.
