Need help identifying the exact package model.

OKC Z

Im confused with my z, Ive been looking at 4.08 gears. But first I would like to know exactly what pakage I have. I honestly think its bottom of the barrel base model but not 100% sure. How can I figure this out? I bought it used and not from a nissan dealer thats the reason I dont know anything about it.
It has the following ( I dont know what difference these make)

Electric seats,heated seats,leather, touring pedals, upgraded rear view mirror, Bose,bluetooth,sat, s tune spoiler, fairlady badges, base wheels 18", No nav, shade for trunk, lit z logos on door kick plates- or whatever its called.
Its just a base model with upgrades am I right? No lsd, syncro, ect.

Thanks and sorry for such an idiot question.

You have the touring model without sport package. Nissan's website will pretty much tell you what that does or doesn't include. It does not include the sport package upgrades such as SRM, LSD, or big brakes.

OKC Z

Thanks you CBRich, you know it never crossed my mind to check the nissan website. You think it be worth the time and trouble to do gears on my 6mt?

It should improve your ability to do a 1 wheel peel! You should consider swapping in a LSD if you are going to higher ratio.

I am a fan of the 4.08 and OS Giken setup also.

if you dont know which package you got, you're an idiot.

If you're gonna do an LSD, go with the Carbonetic 1.5 way carbon, I had one and effin loved it. BTW, invest in an oil cooler ASAP, the engine wont like staying at high RPM's for extended periods of time.

How can a car be bottom of the barrel base if it has leather, bluetooth, heated seats, etc? Come on, dude.

OKC Z

Thanks, everyone input. On this, i knew it was a stupid question as far the trim. I just didnt know how find out. Im a cheap person and waited till i found a used one with low miles. Im starting to regret it now because the car has some issues all around. Im gonna realy look into the lsd and gear change I want to make it little quicker at the quater mile. At the drag strip i went against a buddy with with SC RSX and we were neck to neck after the 1/8 but begining mine fell behind i just need better launching power to be able to compete. Whats the average total price range to get this set up?

You can throw on some cost effective bolt-ons like ERZ HFC's, HPS tubes w/ K&N drop ins, TS exhaust, and NST pulleys. These will probably give you more power and cost less than installing 4.08 gears and LSD.

90 ST

All of this wont help as much with a start as the LSD, he has to get the power to the ground first, then get more power.

Thanx, I currently have k&n filters, surwin y pipe, custom 2.5 dual exhaust with muffler delete, a bully dog tuner, a ground kit- for whats it worth lol. I had topspeed test pipes but sold them because it was way too loud with the muffler delete. And with those little mods I bearly took him when got past 120 on our way home. I kinda knew these have good top speed but quater mile is where I need to improve. So i still need pulleys. I wanna sell the tuner and get me the hps pipes and the pulleys. I think by then the tune from the bully dog wont do me any good because its a boxed tune and done for abone stock 370z.
