i replaced my stock lsd with a carbonetic... so, want it? $200 shipped in US

IMO, worth it.

Stopping in a hurry can't be understated.
Nice looking wheels (though common w/ Z's)
VLSD avoids the one-wheel-peel ;)

What's your take on the difference? I've been curious, since I've heard VLSD's will "wear out" after a while - the material in it becomes less viscous after around 50-75K miles...

Yes, and not really "tracK" driving. Swap brake pads and better rubber, then you're talkin...

Me too, which one did you go with, metal or carbon? I ordered this one: http://thmotorsports.com/carbonetic/...0/i-37914.aspx

My wallet just kicked me for looking at that.

Yeah, mine is sitting in my garage waiting to be installed. Only problem is I have no idea how to do a core replacement, LOL. I've swapped whole differentials before but not cores. :rolleyes:

ha, yeah they're not cheap thats for damn sure, but they'll perform flawlessly lap after lap, and carbonetic makes some of the best LSD's in the biz, you get what you pay for with them.

We were gonna go total base but just couldn't wait a few more days for delivery, hahaha, so we got one w/ the Sports Pkg.!!!!!!!!! I must say though........it looks friggin' awesome w/ the spoilers, those big ole' tires, bad azz rims and yes the extra on the brakes aren't bad either!

Personally i'd pass on it,

18's still look great (it's all we get in Australia until now), the tyres are cheaper to replace and you get better ride compliance on the slightly thicker rubber.

lsd - unless you are planning it consistently spear it out of corners (which you shouldn't do on public roads) lsd's not needed.

SRM - i've turned mine off cause i prefer to match it myself. Part of the joy of manual cars.

I do like the look of the spoiler but, is it an expensive option on its own?

You forgot the better brakes

That is debatable.

Do share...

The sports package Akebono calipers aren't of great quality and haven't proven to substantially out perform their single piston siblings in any performance test. Both models share the same rotors. The fixed mount sport calipers do have a slightly better pedal feel than the base sliding calipers.

Getting a Base 370z with no sports package - is this a mistake?
 

I'm getting a really good deal for a base without the sports package. It will be my daily driver, and i'm not a racer/track guy. The only thing I don't like about the base package are the rims - can I upgrade my base rims to look like the sports package rims? And overall is a base package just as cool as the sports package?
