I received all of these parts early this week…! I couldn’t wait to install them…, called couple of shops but most of them very busy only can do it next week or two. One of my friends recommended this shop in Heidelberg West, they’ve got dyno and can install these 3 parts on Friday for me. I couldn’t be happier and made an appointment.
Stuffed FI exhaust, stillen intakes n pulley and KW V3 coilover in to the car…, to my surprise.., believed me...they can fit. I dropped off my car there early Friday morning and I went straight to work and I came back in the afternoon just before they do the dyno after the install. They dyno-ed the car in the morning (stock conditions and my car only done y 1400km or about 870miles) and then another runs in the afternoons right after the installations. They did 2 dyno runs in the morning, the highest was 179kW or about 240HP @ rear wheels. After these 3 mods installed they did 2 dyno runs again in the afternoon, he highest was 207kW or about 277HP. I only managed to video the 2nd dyno run (forgot to record the 1st one) with my crappy pocket camera. Btw, here pics of the car couple of days after I picked up the car: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Here couple of photos of the exhaust and intakes installed: ![]() ![]() ![]() Getting ready for the afternoon dyno run right after the mods installed: ![]() ![]() Dyno sheet before and after: ![]() Video of the dyno run2 after mods installed, I forgot to record the 1st run: Pls ignore the Torque figure.., they guy said they have not calibrate it yet. SO the results : 28kW or 37HP gained @ rear wheels!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As my butt-dyno go …, I can definitely feel the power gain…, the car tires even can chirp at 3rd gear shift now, it rev tad faster because of the pulley and the exhaust sound is VERY mean at high RPM ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Anyone in Melbourne wanted to hear and ride in my car… definitely welcomed!!! ![]() Coming next week: Fast Intentions HFC, KW V3 coilover installation and reverse camera |

If you wanted to install the exhaust only, I recommend Carnegie Muffler on Princes Hwy around the corner Kooyong St, he only does exhaust..... I am used to be very very happy with this place..., I changed the exhaust my last 3 cars here. But he always very busy and the earliest time to get your car done usually you have to wait a week to make an appointment. Btw, which exhaust you are getting??? |

Nice work Bez. You make it so hard to fight the modding-bug!
![]() I've decided though to put the mod $$ towards an R35 for now.. I can see it now. I'll have my new GTR and I'll be on a GTR forum and some guy would have modded his, I feel that urge and it starts all over again... *sigh* |

Are you sure the mod $$ gonna be enough for the R35? hehe Probably only enough for the maintenances :P
I was thinking the same too..., to save another year or two and get R35..., but I found out the first service even cost you 2k and I dunno how much the major service gonna be...! I heard you have to spend couple of grand every year for the maintenance. So...better off to mod ur 370z and enjoy it for now! be careful..., once the mod bugs bite your....., you'll never stop ![]() ![]() Quote:

Well by the time I have enought money to get an R35, they would have all desolved with rust, so I'm guessing i'll have fun with the 370 while I can lol.
I ended up getting the berk HFC's and the stillen exhaust. I came very very very close to getting the intakes as well, but I'll hold off on them for a little bit just till I run in the engine and know it's all good. I still wanna reach 2000km before i put on the exhaust so I'm up for cruises anytime whenever anyone wants to :P I had taken my 350 to dalder exhausts in preston and I think it was Zoran there who was really good - he was carefull with the install, I might call to see if he is still there, but they haven't got a dyno. I would be interested in seeing what gains I get. How much did they charge for the dyno? And also for the exhaust install? (if you don't mind me asking) |

The charged me $600 to get these 3 mods intalled and this price includes 2 dyno runs..., 2 pulls earch run. I do not know the price breakdown.., I am guessing $90-$100 for each dyno run and $400 for the installations.
So when's your exhaust arrive??? Probably we can go together to Technik Tuning.., I am planning to install the FI HFC and the coilover the end of this week (if it manages to get here mid week)... or else gonna be next week. |
