Have videos and an explination of what it does on my site, but here's the short of it

Makes your AT shift quicker, harder, and operates at a lower temperature thus keeping your transmission internals living a longer life.

Do a search for VB Mod, there are many many threads describing what it does and people's comments on it.

If you call up Stillen and ask for Don's VB mod, they will say, (in a Tim Allen voice) "Huuuuuuh?"

It's call "Don's VB Mod" for a reason. Try and guess why. (Hint: It's in the link posted above.)

The installation instructions are at the mobiletek website in the upper righthand corner:

Its interesting how all of a sudden everyone hasn't heard about this mod after the group deal has finished...

I find it interesting that you don't have the ***** to come into one of my moderated forums and try pulling this garbage.

For the record, all your actions are being monitored.

Just a friendly reminder from your favorite moderator.

Here's a smiley:

My, we are bitter, aren't we?

As I said, DO NOT attempt to post in my moderated forums or they will be edited, deleted, and/or locked as I see fit.

If you were able to contribute in your posts and have an ounce of respect for others, there wouldn't be a problem.

Remember, you brought this on yourself. Make sure that finger points at either yourself or a mirror.

I recommend Eric's VB mod. It cuts 2 seconds off the 0-60 time and makes your AC colder too.

Seriously, quit knocking Bill99GXE and Jeff92SE. They've been on the board for a long long time (as have I) and when I did a search for VB mod, I got a ton of links.

lmao! yes you will get a six speed, along with your new maxima.org stickers that knock 1 second off of that 1/4 mile time! For a limited time only ladies and gentlemen!

heheh thanks all for the info, i must have missed the other posts about this. I guess i need to pay more attention Anyway, mom has a 99 se auto and is seriously thinking about this mod because she is sick of my dad and i telling her how crappy the thing shifts.
