subframe swap? posted by renshi on October 31, 2012 at 01:04 PM

I have a NA to TT Z and I kept the N/A rear end. I put down faster 1/4 times than 2 of my other friends with Z32's that have more power than mine, it might be because of my driving skills or it might be because of the differential? at the same time I commute with my Z 100 miles per day and my cruising rpm is 3100+ at 75mph- I know I could be getting better gas mileage if I had a TT rear end. I also feel that 1st gear is useless because it will just spin the tires like crazy. You can totally come test drive mine and see how you like it. The TT rear end supposedly is thicker and able to withstand higher horsepower (maybe 600+) but that would only come into effect if you ran true drag slicks because tire spin isn't what breaks rear ends it's all about HIGH torque combined with HIGH traction. If you are interested in a N/A rear setup I would be more than happy to trade one of my subframes and differential sets (as I have 3 N/A rear ends) for a TT one straight up installed.
