Some dude my friend knows received his 370z GTM tt kit. It is now going under installation.



I'll keep the story updated as much as I can.

Fun Fact: this was one of the first 370zs delivered in our city. *It was also the same Z in my video on youtube "twin turbo 370z."Yes, the one of me yelling and screaming inside of it.

Ironic how it really NOW will have twin turboes

I hope his next upgrade will be the brakes. Looks like it doesn't have the sport package.

Twin turbo Kit FTW. Awesome. Brakes are the standard app. Sport brake kit is only about $1400 or so. side note... thats not irony! just coincidence. but cool nonetheless.

not much int he way fo detail pic's on their site, although those undercarriage pic's explain why the Z34 sits up to high, they put a rail right under the seats jsut like the S30 only 4 times as thick

and I'd really like to see dyno results on both it and the sc 370, also I'd liek to see them finnish tat vq s30, I'm interested to see how they manage the intake clearance issue and if they use austins shifter bracket

This thing is gonna be a beast. The 3.7 has a lot of potential. There's a video on youtube of a 370Z that dyno's 330whp with minor mods - intake, exhaust, headers and an underdrive pulley. It's crank hp must be close to 400. That's a 70HP increase with just bolt ons! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v..._page

Damn that is one tight fitment on the turbos and wonder how efficient the location of the oil cooler is. Seeing as it's behind the frount mount and +2 on the brake upgrade

Same kit installed on my HR motor:



The kit can be installed without dropping the motor. BBK won't make a difference in a panic stop. The stock brakes are more than capable of locking up the tires if the ABS weren't there. A BBK only prevents brake fade during repeated use.

Yee.

I'm actually having second thoughts about TT'ing the Z.

I just hit 80k about a week ago, I also really don't need 400hp.

It makes enough power (for me at least )

Although, IF a good deal DOES come around I just might pick one up.

Come to think of it, ANOTHER one of my friends just TT'd his Z a few days ago, he had been saving for quite a while now. It's a revup and it made [email protected] llbs. (Greddy kit)

*While I'm on the subject, let me remind everyone of the "how to do twins right" writeup. It's a fun read.

That'll happen when the GTR comes out with CVT.

It drives just as comfortably as it did before the turbo's.

While normally cruising, it gets about the same amount of mpg as the factory rating,and in some cases better.

Here's a video of a customer test drive:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVv6Acx5OTk

Yeah, just not sure about putting 20k+ miles a year on a turbo car (G37 in my case).

The comments about the video show there are lots of stupid people that don't know WTF they are talking about.

That would be awseome if you TT'd the g37, or better yet the sedan :D, a friend of mine has a red sedan like yours.

He recently just pulled his motor to put a new one in, the first one got hydrolocked.







He also had a TT Z but sold it. (damn starting to realize almost every person I know with a 350z has one tt'd.) He might TT the G35 soon.

Nice

If he decides to get an aftermarket front bumper I could use the stock one

Sorry for the minor hijack Does anyone know if that Z had its ECU flashed to make full use of the MOds?
