Yea it's just going to be street driven no track ever. So i should be good.

But yea I'm picking up the whole drivetrain this Sunday. He's giving me everything even the cooler lines so once I have everything I'll see sort my options.


Man the guys on this forum are very helpful . I REALLY appreciate it . I've been a Nissan/Infiniti Guy/tech for over 8yrs now and the Immaturity on those forums is amazing. Glad I finally made the switch to my dream engine. An Ls.

I think 5 Liter Eater pretty much covered everything.

All TT from 2005-2008 are same. All input splines on the transmissions (T56 or TR6060) is 26 spline and will work with all TT. 09 they shortened the TT.

The "cooler" mounted to the driver's side of the differential is a heat exchanger between the diff fluid and the transmission fluid. We normally remove it and plug it since the Z06/ZR1/GS diff has additional 1 qt of capacity.

You can just loop the pump on the TR6060 like this. We sell the AN -6 fittings and lines already made.
