and you know I'm reading all this **** about the Full Blown 8.8 kit being cheaper etc. but when you actually look at the components you're getting, it's only about 400$ cheaper to mount the 8.8 vs. the R200 since the ILP kit comes standard with the DSS 5.9 axles. Dunno about the rest of the country, but its GOBS easier sourcing 300zx diffs out here than it is finding someone who knows what the hell a 8.8 is lol

this is a used one and is just the mounting kit, but finding a NA 300zx R200 shouldn't cost more than 150$. At the end of the day it'll cost me <1500$ ![Emthup](https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif)

Black, just the guy - i'm thinking of getting the final drive from the Kia Sportage - in NZ, it's a 4.625 ratio.
I'm only bolt on mods with a potential tune coming up - do you think this will 'rock my world?'

I'm not sure if my gearing is AP1 or AP2 - might have to do some homework. I'm an 04 JDM AP2, but with AP1 motor. So, it must be the AP1 gearing right?

btw looking at maybe buying a porsche 944 turbo as a project. I had one for my first car and would love to have another to work on to keep my mind off of other things.

Mine was the opposite...i felt like i wasn't being treated right. A couple months ago she started hanging out with her girlfriends from when she was in highschool and it all went to ****. Everyday after work she would just come home and get on facebook for like 4 hours and then go to sleep. She would go out every Saturday with her girlfriends and then come home the next day at 5 in the afternoon (which i thought was ****ing bullshit..), then in turned into wednesdays she would go out with them and come home at 1 in the morning. I felt like i was a parent with her because that's all she wanted to do was go out and party with her girlfriends who are all in college and she has a full time job, so maybe she feels like she was missing out these last couple years.

i just think what bothers me the most about the whole situation is how it seemed like she made a complete 180...she was never like any other female i had every met, yet she ends up turning into every other **** in the world and it still saddens me to this day

Sucks man but life will go on. She is 21 working full time with no plans to go back to college...its time to grow up in my opinion. I mean she chose to stop going to school so she needs to realize that it's time to figure **** out. The problem is her parents baby her and let her do whatever the hell she wants, even if they don't agree with it.

Her brother is 25, got high and totaled his car with limited liability...so now he has no car living at his parents house with this 19 year old chick that he just got knocked up, and married her last weekend so that the baby isn't born out of wedlock lol. He works at kroger making like 7.50 and hour and driving around his parents cars and they tolerate it and he has no intention on leaving anytime soon, nor does he pay any rent or anything. My parents would have beat the **** out of me if i pulled that ****. They kicked me out at 20 because they felt it was time for me to start my life lol.

funny how all of you are going with higher gear ratios when I'm trying to go with 4.1's stock. I'll have my diff up for sale soon from the black car if you guys are interested. J's 4.4 diff kit in it already and i'm probably gonna let the entire thing go for 800-1000ish (the diff kit is 1200+ already)

He is a good kid though, just has no drive to do anything. It's a shame because he is pretty sharp but he doesn't apply himself in anything he does.
