Going by (SAE corrected) dynojet numbers, which have very little variance from shop to shop, and data I've acquired from half a dozen VQ37HR's...

***Dynojet derived whp and drivetrain loss***

Average power for 370Z or G37: 273 +/-5

Average power for Nismo version: 290 +/-5

Drive train losses for both AT and MT appear to be between 16.5% and 17.5%

So... if you want to get a good (SAE corrected, dnyojet based) estimate, take what your car puts down (on a dynojet) and divide by either .835 or .825.

So, if you make 300 whp on a dynojet with SAE correction, it makes (probably) somewhere around 359 - 363 bhp.
