The midwest chassis 9" piece is really nice. 2600 bucks shipped to your door, already setup, and it comes with a torque arm and tranny crossmember. The fabbed housing weighs a little less than a stock 10 bolt housing (by like 5-8 lbs) so you're maybe only talking a weight gain of 20 lbs when you include the center section.

I was thinking about looking into the Moser M9 now, is there anything I should know about before I pursue this choice? And yes I have a good ole' destroyer of rear ends.

I talked to Bob over at EPP and we decided the M9 is alittle overboard(and expensive) for what I plan on doing with the car. I'm pretty much set on the standard Moser 9". I didn't get anything done at work today because I've been looking at different rear ends all day .

Lmao, yeah that would not be a good thing. But I am sure I am safe. She doesn't know the first thing about a car. Much less this site.

Dude, look at the midwest piece...it is the best deal out now. You're talking 150 bucks more for a fabbed torque arm and fabbed crossmember, and it's lighter than the moser. if you pass you're nuts.

^^^True that.... But the only draw back on that is, has a major wait time.

Time really isnt on my hands as the Z is my daily driver, and I just moved out of the dorms. I'm staying with a friend in base housing atm but I don't want to stay here too long, me and the girlfriend would like some privacy from time to time.

It will take a couple months. Read through this, and you will see why.
