new M37x owner

[gwoods]

Hello Nico Fuga Y51 owners and lovers,

I am not new to Nico. I started out here in July of 2007 when I purchased a gently used 2007 G35 sedan and then drove it almost 130k miles over the next 5 years. In 2012 I fell in love with the Jaguar XF Supercharged and bought one parting ways with my loyal G sedan. 2 years of daily triple digit speeding and 1 criminal speeding ticket for 115mph in a 65 mph zone I parted ways with the Jaguar. For a few months I drove one of my other cars a 99 Nissan Altima SE LTD 5spd but it started giving me trouble so I bought a 2013 M37x.

Here are some pictures of my M and a teaser shot of my recently installed Takeda 3016P (G37) long tube air filter kit. I have given Hitman an article and a bunch more photos documenting the cutting and bending that is involved in making a G series airfilter kit work on a M.

I would like to do a muffler delete and then be done with it.

Nicely done, when I first glanced at the picture I was hoping I saw a supercharger...then I read intake. If you have a write up and pics I've love to add it to the how-to section.

I gave the pics and write up to Hitman to turn into an article.

My last car was supercharged and wow it was amazing. I proved that I am not responsible enough to own a 500+hp car on the street.

448hp dyno bone stock


185mph still have most of 6th gear left and it is pulling



Next to a Mclaren at the dealership



VIDEO of 0-125mph on a freeway on ramp



VIDEO of 75-160 mph



VIDEO of 12 second pass at Speedworld on my crappy Dunlop Sport Maxx tires



12.8 timeslip look at my 60' and 330' and you can see I'm using part throttle most of the way through 1st gear. This car has a 12.5 in it with slicks.

I'm working on the intake article at present... On its way!

No worries boss! I'd bring the M by for a spin but its disappointingly slow... needs some turbo? There is sooo much room for intercooler, manifolds and turbo's in a car with a V6 that could also be bought with a V8.

Thanks guys, I added the article to the How-To section.
