GMT 4.2L and 4.5L stroker kit pros and cons

Mjthind · 02-12-2011, 11:12 PM

Can you guys tell what the advantages and disadvantages of the GTM 4.5L kit and GTM 4.2L are. Don't you guys think a 4.2L or 4.5L V6 is big or is it just me.

Your treading in unfamiliar water. There is only one person with that engine in his car ATM and we are waiting for the results. As for being big it's all a matter of your power hunger and how much you want to spend.

I dont know, Nobody buys a stroker kit on this car actually.

if you have that enough of money then go for TT and call it a day

I feel there is no great advantages to be had.

Nitrouz · 02-13-2011, 11:33 AM

^the replacement for displacement is boost.

OP - really depends on what you want it for. I've gone down that road many times over, and had the first stroker kit GTM did back in the 350z days. Feel free to PM me any questions you have. I've actually DRIVEN a GTM stroker kitted car (mine) for over a year through all conditions (track, street, backroad, hot, cold, daily driving, etc).

Mjthind · 02-13-2011, 11:36 AM

Actually GMT the same guys that also make a TT for the 370z make a stroker kit too. They make 4.2L and 4.5L stroker kit.

Since money is off the table then you need to find the 'purpose' of this build.
Track
Street
Show
Other

Once you pick that then start piecing together what it will take it to be stable, reliable, and usable in that category.
