RJ MFG Supercharger kit Feeler...

Nice! Do an M3-style simplenpower bulge.

Do you have any more information on that particular car other than a shot of a dyno plot? JMS is my backyard and I've been on their dyno. How do you know this car is a 7AT? They come with 6-speed manuals as well. There's one sedan in town that runs the SC kit but I'm pretty sure it was a manual tranny.

No filter IS crazy. I've taken apart too many damaged turbos to ever run without a filter, LOL.

What are his trap speeds/times?

@ Ape...Never heard of a Q50 with MT.

milkcow500 · 07-08-2017, 07:31 PM

This is a 7at. I think the first year of the q50 came in 6mt if I recall.

He has trap times on his IG. I think they were mid 11s.

Actually I know Eric. Met him at Nismo Fiesta a few years back. Very nice guy and his car is indeed a 7AT. I don't know how in the hell that transmission is holding up being completely stock especially with the extra torque E85 produces. One lucky SOB.

I might have to reconsider selling the G for a turbocharged German car.

I wouldn't be surprised. There is a guy here in Australia with a GTM TT 7AT running 468 whp and 550nm and the only upgrade he has done was the flex plate. He said it has held fine since 2012.

550nm is about 405 ft.lbs.

Man, that second PS hood looks great. Would be perfect with the vents from the AMS hood.

zer099 · 07-10-2017, 01:35 PM

The Q50 has a different model RE7R01A tranny then us. Different TQ converter specs, different gearing, different shift programming, most likely different clutches and band. I would be hard pressed to say you can compare their's to ours.

Check the FSM for reference: 2009 vs 2015

That is actually the same trans in the G37/370z... The RE7R01A/JR710E is rated for 295lbs. You are thinking of the RE7R01B.

No, I am talking about the same model tranny but it is changed. They tweak each model tranny from year to year. The Q50s is rated different across the board. Look at the FSMs. If you reference each FSM you can see the slight changes made to the different tranny sub-models throughout the years. Not all RE7R01As are made the same it would seem.

So is that just for the Q50 or is that also for the 370Z 7AT? I.e. could the later models have a stronger tranny?

Yes, there are different variants of the Nissan 7 speed transmissions all with different build specs and control software. Torque management, engine variables (programming) and even torque convertors will help prevent damage and help maintain transmission life.

The magic number for our cars is still below 400 ft-lbs of torque and its the 4-7 gears clutch packs that are in danger of being slipped around that torque range. It's amazing how just little material is in those clutch packs.

There is no magic solution to this problem. If you want to boost a automatic car and have more power and torque than stock, you need better clutch packs, torque convertor and heat management. OR eventually you will burn out the transmission .... period. Just like a manual clutch will eventually fail from more power than stock.

Consider a upgrade to the automatic transmission clutch packs, cooling etc for a car you want to boost and make more power. Or don't boost because you will wind up paying way more in the end.

The parts you need are out there and any competent shop that's local can do the work for you. If you want the best and can afford it, Level 10 is the shop to use.

There are NO shortcuts

Could I wait till the cluch packs burn out then upgrade with the Exedy clutch pack then?

milkcow500 · 07-10-2017, 01:51 PM

Hmm interesting. I just assumed it was the same with beefier clutch packs. Time to do some research.
