- Installing a 370z Nismo Differential on my G35 Coupe!! (3.916 Gears) In this video we are doing a 370 nismo differential swap with nismo differential cover and with z1 motorsports polyurethane differential bushings on my g35! stock manual g35 coupes have 3.5 final drive and the manual 370 nismo final drive is a 3.916! I get more acceleration at the cost of top speed and fuel economy but its more fun to drive and wakes up the g35 wayyyy more!!
My car is a 2004 G35 Coupe 6MT Brembo Package Desert Platinum and has Muffler Delete exhaust

thank you for watching guys!!
No thank you for this great content
Anytime brotha!!!
If the diff will make the car quicker, why wouldn't it be worth it just because you have to buy the axles?
I found a loophole to it, you don’t need to buy new ones and you save money that way
What’s best for 0-100 ?gear ratio I was thinking 3.6-4.09 including 3.9 ?
This channel is perfect; the amount of time talking, educating, test driving and showing the install is just perfect. Don't ever change your formula bro.
Thank YOU! I appreciate this comment! I do a lot of research so I can pass it on to the viewer without them having to research it themselves. Thank you for the feedback bro!
@@JoeVazquez You're welcome man! I do a lot of research myself before buying upgrades for my 06 G35 sedan 5AT, just so I know what I'm getting, how it will effect performance, NVH etc. You should get a Z1 poly trans mount! I have one on mine, and the ENTIRE drivetrain on my G35 is planted due to the poly trans mount and Z1 poly diff bushings!
How’s the nvh with the tranny mount? That’s been the biggest reason for me putting it off!
You know all the tasteful and performance mods most other youtubers overlook! Keep it up brotha, one of the reasons I subbed 💪
Thank you brotha, this means a lot!
Good info and great content bro. This will be 1 of the 2021 mods on my 03 coupe.
Hell yeah!! You’re welcome bro thanks for watching!
You’re a blessing to the G world 🙏🏽
Aw dam don’t make me cry 😭
I love how informational you are. ❤️
I love how cute you are 😍
Another great video very underrated channel
Thanks man I appreciate that!
Was wondering about the bushings. Are they the same for either or or do you have to buy specifically for the G or the Z
I’m telling you right now... If or when you ever decide to sell your G35 ( hopefully never ) your car will hold so much value ( at least to me ) with all the mods you’ve done so far... Using OE parts, performance parts, and a very tasteful exterior, I wouldn’t think twice about buying a modified car in this condition... Keep up the videos bro! Looking to buy a G35 coupe this summer ✌🏽
5 bucks and it’s yours! No lowballing haha 😂
@@JoeVazquez lmao 🤣🤣 I wish
That’s what I been trying to tell people that are so shocked when I said I sold my 07 G35’coupe auto(Vq35de) for $10,800 week ago(04/24/21
1 owner. 157k. Every maintenance part was new. And timing chain refresh and everything in that area new as well.
Upgrades:
Invidia catback w/Art pipes, Injen cai, 75mm nwp TB,catch can,Z1 plenum spacer with v1
Kinetix intake manifold(black one with sway bar cutout) Lightweight pulleys from Z1..HKS grounding kit for faster auto shifting (w/ paddle shifters)
3.69 LSD diff from 08 G35s sedan
One piece aluminum driveshaft for rotational mass.
Uprev tune without maps..(didn’t want to be tempted to spit flames and burn my oil every day lol)
Final result dyno tune was 303 WHP 286 Torque.
(Unbelievable for auto btw)
(Z1 shop record (35coupe auto DE n/a)
Interior:
G37s carbon steering wheel with plug and play airbag with steering functions all working.
V35 350gt skyline sedan (jdm G35) paddle shifters from Japan installed and turned out absolutely perfect (shifting results w/ grounding kit were instantaneous)
JVC CarPlay headunit
Exterior:
350z 35th anniversary 18”5 spoke chromes
Goodyear eagle sport tires 255/45/18 rear
245/45/18 front.
1inch rear spacer !! Half inch front spacers.
Oem sport suspension( height with my wheel tire setup was perfect. (Minimal wheel gap)
Rear window visor
07 G35’coupe short spoiler oem color match(mine didn’t come with it)
Brembo fronts calipers! akembono rear calipers! (both powder coated same color and rebadged with Nismo decals.)
Looked really good. Oem mainly but with everything together it was damn sexy..
Best track time w/ street tires were 12.83 117mph
With spare tire/ Oem seats. Everything as is. Could’ve prob got 11.99 with 200-300 pound weight reduction!!!
Oh and all those 6mt revup or G37s mts would get smoked 10/10 days out the week!!
Haters will hate and say no way.. yes way!!!
do what feels right, chase mods that u feel are missing with your performance...every engine is different..
I dam sho bought mine 🥹
Excellent up grade. Gears is always number 1 for me.
Definitely agree with that!
Keep up the good work 👍 how much was the 370z nismo differential?
Great video! Have you noticed being faster in drag races even though you are shifting more often? Thanks!
Hey bro ,I have 6mt g37 with 3.69 final drive ,would you recommend the 3.9 diff or is it worth it .
I have a 2011 G37S and I it’s clunking in the back by rear diff. What recommendations do you have since I’ll be taking it out?
Question so I’m doin 7speed auto swap into my 06 g35 sedan and wondering if I can run the nismo differential do I have get the Manuel one or auto or doesn’t matter
Big boy moves! Nice man
Thanks man I appreciate it!
Hey bro I have a g37s coupe 6mt with the 3.69 diff . Is it worth for me to upgrade to 3.9 diff. Also will there be a noticeable difference in Acceleration off the line compared to the 3.69.
Bro I just got a 07 g35 coupe manual I think it has a open diff because only one burns I want to put a vlsd in it but does it matter does it matter if the vlsd comes from an automatic car also what diff you recommend me to get from a g37 370z or 350?
Just gained a new subscriber loved this video 💪🏾
Thanks for the support bro!
What year 370z do I use to put in 03'g35coupe
Nice video Brother. Your G will be in the mid 13s after all is said and done. Maybe even low low 13s! Also just subbed. My G35 06 RevUp coupe fbo minus TB/gears differential.
Thanks man I appreciate it a lot!! I wish I had a rev up haha 😣
Hi I have a 2017 370z base (open diff) I just bought a nismo vlsd what do I need to install?
Im anxious to see the next video on how much of a difference it makes. Ill have my notifications on
I want to know too 😩😂
Did the rematch ever happen? I can’t find the video
It did not :(
Did yo mod the steering wheel at all? Is that a cover?
awesome info.. never considered getting a "used" nismo dif.. Thanks :D
No problem! 🙏
Thomas is jealous of your new diff 👀 GAPPLEBEEEEEEES
Hahahaha 😂😂 take them to the gapples!!
what’s your rpms at a cruising speed of like 80
A lot of people don’t know about the Nismo gears. Good video.
Thanks man!
Good shit bro
Thanks bro I appreciate it!!
i cant wait to do this bro, so excited. there is one for sale from a totaled 370z nismo near me but no cash at this time damn it! anyway. bro, what is the quaife LSD for the G35??what final drive is that. Once I have money will buy the 3.9, if someone already buys it then i'll wait for another one.
Nice bro . I have a g37s with a 3.69 diff is it worth it for me to get a 3.9 diff .
so buy shorf lsd output shaft?
Can i do this to a 5 speed auto transmission
Would this work on a sedan
What RPM are you at 80mph?
So for an auto G 04 can I buy a vsld and take the stub axles off the vsld and swap it to the nismo or is there something I’m missing?
If your g has a vlsd yes you just swap stubs to the new vlsd diff, if yours is a open diff then I recommend to just stick with a 370 3.69 open diff
Thanks so much for the great video Joe!
2 questions for you:
- in your opinion what's a reasonable range of prices for this diff?
-what's your gas mileage at now?
Of course man!
1: reasonable price would be somewhere in the 350 dollar range, max 500 for a 3.69 for a low mileage one, I paid 800 for the nismo diff but because it’s a 3.9 final drive and it only had 20k miles
2: as far as gas mileage in these couple days driving, I haven’t really noticed much difference! If i want to save gas I could just skip gears but I really can’t tell a difference in that department!
@@JoeVazquez it’s only top end that you would notice the difference. I changed from a 35 profile tire to a 30 profile and that gave me a final drive of 4.02.
Changing tire size does help with final drive if you don’t want to buy a differential!
@@chodkowski01 top end, as in top end of the rpm range or top end as in high speeds? how did you figure your final drive ratio? thanks
I have a G37s coupe 7speed and I recently swapped out the differential to a 3.69 and holy shit it makes a difference I can’t imagine a 3.91 but since it’s my daily I’m good with the 3.69
That’s awesome bro!! I’m glad you like it 🙏
i have a 2008 base model z , with an open diff , should i weld it or throw in a 370z vlsd ? both manual
I would personally weld it tbh, ALOT cheaper and will actually be more consistent since vlsd’s turn into open diffs once it gets really hot
Nice video bro so what would you say would happen if a stock open diff got swapped with a 3.9 nismo lsd? 🤔
It’s the open diff stub axles that are shorter than the vlsd ones so you wouldn’t be able to use them, what I’ve heard is that you can remove the ring gears with the teeth and swap them onto the 370 ones but I haven’t confirmed it!
What year
Did you have to do anything to the front end with swapping the differential?
Not at all!
Great video. What year is your G35, O4?
Yes 2004
can you use a 370z manual diff on a g35 auto, or does it have to be auto to auto diff
You can use any 350,370,g37,g35 diff with any one of them, they are all interchangeable
I know we have different cars but every time i see u do a new mod to your G35 u make me wanna keep my M35S & do some performance mods to it im currently looking for a G37 S but i want a auto trans i want to do a few mods to that one also
I appreciate that brotha!!
Wow you good
The information is excellent
Thanks man I tried to make it easy to understand!
@@JoeVazquez because of you I bought the throttlebody i’m thinking of buying the brake line 😂
@@josenieves7185 oh dam 😂 I should get a discount code on these things to save you guys some money 😭
@@JoeVazquez yes that will be nice
Do you think a G35 sedan 06 can get that diff in ?
Yeah any g35/g37/350/370
Hey man love your steering wheel new to the channel and wanted to ask where did you get it made if you don’t mind thank you!
Here’s the video on the steering wheel! Hope this helps you!! th-cam.com/video/cxG62SKYY6Y/w-d-xo.html
Wassup joe. What’s your opinion on having a cold air intake and plenum spacer or swapping the manifold and adding a kintex one will I lose power ?
Cheapest way is definitely cai and plenum spacer! I like the stainless steel kinetix manifold more for how easy it is to access everything than the performance you get out of it! It’s like 6 bolts to remove it and you can access your injectors, etc.
As for power, it’ll be pretty similar so I’d just go the cheap route and spend that extra you save on test pipes, that’ll make a bigger difference than a kinetix manifold alone
@@JoeVazquez well all I need now is a plenum spacer and test pipes, thanks for the info.
Those two will make a noticeable difference honestly! Both help with the restricted power from the runners on the intake and the restriction from the cats!
Good call on the stub axle swap over. Keeps the ABS an cruise control working. Didn't do that an now I'm w/out them. An as you know, it's no fun on your back swapping that thing out, so I'm a just live with it. Went w/3.69 out of a G37. Was hoping to find a 'Unicorn' 3.90 out of a G37 6spd vert, but man they are uber rare. Great vids as always bro, keep up the good work.
Thanks for the feedback bro! How does the car feel with the 3.69 gears? The 3.9 is definitely hard to find, I can’t believe I lucked out on it!
@@JoeVazquez it's an auto G that came w/the 3.35 so it did wake it up quite a bit. Especially from a dig. Not crazy noticeable, but enough to make it worth while.
@@jrock9687 hell yeah man, enjoy it!!
just buy some abs rings and pop them on your current inner stubs. No need to drop the diff or even remove the axles.
Yeah you can always do that!! I had done some research recently and discovers you can replace them which would have been big help with spreading this info 😢
Exactly what I told ya to do
Wut?
Heads up tip for y’all trying to remove that differential bushing.... don’t buy the tool just cut the old bushing metal shell with a saws all makes life much easier
DEFINITELY, if I ever do that job again I will not be using the z1 kit. You need A LOT of leverage that you simply can’t get under a car, only time I recommend z1 kit is if you have a lift but that’s about it!

bout to weld my diff
Do it you won’t! 🤧
How would you compare 3.69 to 3.91 differential and what would be better
Do you have any more mods?
I don’t but I’m thinking of doing full bolt ons maybe got turbo later on but so far I only got The Motordyne ShockWave TDX2.
Motordyne art pipes mishimoto catch can and oil cooler stage 2 action clutch
should i do this to my base model 370z?
100%
So if I wanted to say fuck it and not have abs I could just buy any nismo diff then change the flange all that cut the stubby thing would it work and work good ?
Not any nismo diff, manuals are 3.9 And autos are 3.6, depending on what you’re looking for. 370z’s don’t need a flange change only g37 autos. I personally would not drive my car without abs, specially for a daily or track driving. I found out recently You can change the abs ring from your g35 onto the 370 stub axle so you don’t need to buy new stub axles!
Does it matter if I get a manual or an auto?
For your car or the car you’re looking at getting the diff from?
Yo how many mile you got on it?
120k now I believe!
How much was the diff?
I paid $700
Question bro I want to buy a nismo differential on ebay but it says it's from a automatic does it make a difference if it's from a manual or a automatic bro
Automatic is 3.69 ratio not a 3.9 so you’ll be overpaying for a 3.69 final drive when you can buy a manual g37 or 370 diff that’ll be the exact same for cheaper
Oh ok thanks bro I'll just keep looking for a 3.9 thanks for the info bro
Sounds good!!
Could I use an auto diff from 370z on my manual g35 coupe?
You’re looking for a longer gear ratio right? But yes all you have to do is make sure you replace open with open and vlsd with vlsd so you can swap the stub axles to have your abs and speedo working right!
@@JoeVazquez actually I want shorter gears I have 04 G coupe
@@tt092979 so you would want manual 370z diff bro!
Hey boss man does it matter what year the diff is
Yeah! In my video it shows a chart of what year and transmission has what!
Kinda want a g35 as a daily already got a boosted 350z and 370 so may seem redundant
I can see what you mean haha, you can always have a different goal with the g35 so each one caters to a different thing! GET MORE CARS haha
@@JoeVazquez I have a 350z manual and my 07 G35’coupe automatic DE daily driver was faster. 🤣🤣 Recently sold for $10,800 306whp 286 torque n/a. (Z1 record for auto na DE
Where did you buy the diff?
There’s a couple people on Instagram that part out cars they buy so I got lucky when I was looking I found a guy selling one!
Search around your area for people that buy and part out cars and keep a look out or just buying from ebay, either way is pretty good honestly
How much did you find yours for if you don’t mind me asking
I picked it up for 800! The 3.9 diffs are unicorns so I was willing to pay that price since they’re usually more expensive either way
@@JoeVazquez that's what I was expecting ): I found a 3.7 vlsd for 300 and it only has 36k on it. I'm upgrading from an open diff so its already gonna be one hell of an upgrade. Blessed for the video bc the diffs I've been looking at are mostly automatic and I was wondering if I could still swap it. Sweet content man, when my hr isn't looking ratty I might hop on making some too (:
my next mod! thanks for the info n tips bro
Of course bro I got you! 🙏
Dayum son
Dayum dad
@@JoeVazquez 🤣🤣
Daddy chill
@@JoeVazquez "Oh yaa big daddy"
Omg 😂😂😂😂
Cool shit
Thanks man!
So refreshing seeing the 03-06 G35’s get some love I was getting tired of seeing them turn into street take over drift missiles. Gear ratio’s often overlooked.
I feel you on that one haha, and gear ratios are VERY underrated!!
I would prefer faster acceleration with shorter gears even if I sacrificed top speed. I’ve never taken my G35 past 85 mph. Speed limits and speeding tickets keep me from driving that fast.
That’s exactly why I did this mod!
I’m confused you said the shorter the gear ratio the quicker but you put a 3.9 gear ratio and g35 has a 3.3
Shorter gear ratio = the higher the number 3.9 gear
Longer gear ratio = the lower the number
3.3 gear
I was under the impression that this swap required 370z axles and hubs. But I guess reusing the g35 axle stubs eliminates the use for the extra 370z parts.... interesting.
Correct! I am planning on buying 370 axles and bearings while using g35 stub axles. All I’ll need is longer axle bolts since the 370 axles are thicker and that’s it
@@JoeVazquez will that make a difference in performance?
@@erickabundis7952 the g35’s have a 2 piece bearing that you need to press out and press in to the old part, sometimes both parts are toast so you have to buy both parts which gets really pricey since you’d have to buy 4 to replace both sides and then press them, so buying 370z bearings is great because they’re a one piece design so that’s great! In order to use them though you need the 370 axles aswell which are a bit stronger and can handle more power if you decided to go boosted!
hey wanted to say this was really cool and made me even more curious.. I have an 2003 5at and would like to know if this would work? any issues with cruise control? started to look at 3.69 diff but maybe this is even better way to go..!
@@JoeVazquez will I need to modify anything on the G Coupe 06 if I went with 370 axels and bearings?
Wow I didn’t even know you can do that 🤨
Haha it’s not a very talked about topic but definitely makes a difference!
@@JoeVazquez thanks for showing us ;)
Anytime haha ;)
Bih do mine too
Fuhhh 😭😭
That Differential 370z nisom is not meant for your g35 coupe wth , you can break your car like that and it's tacky when you did that wth?
They are same size differentials just different internals, 0 issues since installed, have no broken car
The shorter the gear the downer the fool!
🤣
If you see another use one for that price let me know
Bunch of people are lined up for those nismo diffs now it’s crazy!
Hey! I don’t have a g35
I don’t really know what to say haha
@@JoeVazquez lmfao 🤣🤣
Foo the garage broke and you didn’t even put it in the vid
It do be like that sometimes :(
