Gollum Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 For a mostly street driven Z, if you have the later 5 speed with the better, more even, spread than I'd go with the lowest ratio R200 you can find. That is of course, you're running a L28ET like you mentioned. If I had a 3.364 I'd run that myself, but in all my Z car purchases I haven't had access to one yet, and I haven't felt like spending the money yet on that area of my car. Having a sub 2500 pound 280z with a L28et, the later 5 speed, and 3.545 r200 I can say with certainty that it's a "good" street setup. But I still feel like I should get a lot more out of my early gears, and wish my RPMs were a bit lower on the freeway. I'd like to have the RPMs under 2800 ideally as it quiets down quite a bit around there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
