Trans is T 56

Rear end I had already installed a NISMO 2 way Clutch type LSD. It holds very well. Its a notchy little bitch too.

What diff fluid are you running.
My Cusco was really notchy when I had Redline in it. I switch to Mobile and the diff became silky smooth.

Well to answer the track numbers or HP numbers. I havnt had it on the dyno as of yet and the track is hard to get to with work.
I am going to dyno Tuesday so Ill have videos and numbers.

Price Ive invested about 10K in everything
(kinda high but I bought a lot of thing brand new)

Also about the intake. Its 3 inch. Its the same size if not bigger than the throttle plate inside of the throttle body so its not restrictive.

Also diff fluid Im running Nismo fluid

You wouldn't happen to be from Bowling Green would you. I see a v8 240sx on campus quite a bit and was just wondering if this was the same car. If it is, awesome car, sounds killer.
