A driveline shop in Cali did the work on the spacer bracket. Unfortunately I don't recall who it was but do a seach on NICO about March of 2003 and you find a ton of info on the 4.08 and the numbers to both Unitrax and the other shop that did the 4.08. The only problem with the other shop building a 4.08 was that he set it up way too tight so I sounded like a F-16 fighter jet taking off running down the highway. It might be worth your while to check it out since he was cheap, about $400 bucks including a core, and if something goes wrong then you can easily take it back to him. Me I would have paid for shipping round trip at a cost of $200 and then even then he was giving me crap saying a little whinning is normal. He built the spacer bracket and knows very well the Q45 rearends as he was using them for drift cars in the 240sx getting rid of the 4.08 in the 240's so he had a ton of 4.08 gears all laying around...although they were used and this could have caused my whinning problem also according to the shop that built my current rearend with all new parts.

You cannot simply swap out the stub axles as they are of different diameters.

You have to rebuild the stock rearend with the higher gears.

IIRC, unfortunately unitrax does not any longer do the 4.08 build for the Q45..... I reckon they probably only built a few...
