First of all thanks to Blackbird for the opportunity to work on such a beautiful car. And thanks to Sam and the GTM staff for all their help.

So what happens to a 370Z when you have performed all the bolt ons that make power but the car just isn't fast enough?

Well if you're Blackbird you scratch the NA setup and start researching FI systems. Next you get the HP goal set. Then after thinking it over you setup an appointment and order a GTM turn key kit from GTM or one of their dealers(Z1

). Last get the car delivered to Z1Motorsports

to start in finish the project.

Parts installed (prior to delivery):

Unorthodox Racing Under Drive Pulley (Retained)
Stillen Cat-Back Exhaust (Retained)
Stillen Headers (Removed)
Stillen Gen III Intake (Removed)

Parts to be installed included:

GTM stage 2 turn key TT kit
Z1 370Z Sport Brake Upgrade Package
Hawk HP Ceramic pads
Z1 370Z oil cooler kit (34 Row with Thermostatic Sandwich Plate)
Stillen Front Fascia

Parts added after delivery:

Quaife LSD
HKS EVC
AEM Uego wideband
Berk High Flow Cats

Now let's get it on the lift

Time to take the heart out.

Check over parts list

Start the install and test fitment.

Back in

We had to get his new Stillen fascia repainted so it will be shipped. But here is the stocker.

Had to reset airbag light and check fluids for the trip to NH.

Now the numbers in STD and SAE. The car actually put down 540rwhp in SAE but the graph broke in a spot so no need to show it. Now it was not pulling timing. But it did have a small boost fluctuation
