No, not yet.

My best estimate early next year for the SC stage 2.
The VB should be out shortly for the 7 AT.

and then wait to see whatelse the 7AT will need after he gets my trans.

alot of things... *cough* lunch control *cough* :p

Are you saying Shumby is overweight??
:bowrofl::bowrofl:

:iagree:he's got to be a fat fcvk! i know it!

:stirthepot::stirthepot::stirthepot:

Why yes I was :)


Only white 370Z there :)



DAN

I thought the VB (Valve Body Upgrade?) had been available for a while already. It's mentioned on GTM's website.

it's only available for the 5AT I think.

Oh, no kidding? I stand corrected! Any idea why the factory is using a wideband on a non-FI car?

Nope but i did read a artical the other day where the 370z was actullay going to be twin turbo from the factory. so maybe thats why they already placed the order for them?
Frank

All late model vehicle have wideband sensors, Narrowbands are a blast from the past due to all the new Strict EPA requirement for emissions and MPG.

Besides wideband sensors are a lot more accurate then narrow band, 1 volt vs 5 volt range .

Sam

There you go you got a answer from the tunning god him self. :hello:

Hey sam sent you a email when you get a chance. looking to have a fun winter.
Frank

A TT huh? I wonder if they will change the tranny then to make sure it lasts. And how much more will it cost. It seems kinda wierd as it would be infringing on the GTR tho.

Well the artical reads that they were not planning on making the GTR yet they were going to hold it back. Also that the original 370z was to be TT like the 300zx. Well they decided to release the GTR and thats when are car plans went to **** and we got the 3.7. They didn't mention what engine they were going to use, but all it stated was when they decided to release the gtr, they decided to use the 3.7 ans the powerplant.
Frank

hey don't hold me to the accuracy of that just relaying what that said. my Buddy had the magazine at work and I just gave it a quick read through. Also that article doesn't mean they plan to come out with one in the future it was discussing the original development before they released the 370.
Frank

A TT Z would be fun and fast if they keep the 3.7 or 3.8 engine. When did they say this might happen? Im looking for a faster car now and am on the fence with the vette or maybe the Audi TT RS (if its under 55K). If not then prolly the vette.

read my post above yours i must have typed it while you were typing yours lol. also put a TT kit on there steve don't sell for a vette. Trust me man, everyone on this forum by now should know i am a straight shooter and you will not regret doing it.
Frank

Im in el paso and can open a vette up on a regular basis on roads here and when Im used too 400 HP and 400 TQ I can SC it and have fun all over again. I just dont trust the auto tranny on the Z right now.

I think everyone is looking into shumbys tranny failing a little to hard. Maybe sam can comment on that. I guess i can see the cause though since he has been the longest on a 7 at s/c. I would wait till sam gets his tranny before making a decision like that
Frank

Nice. So I did see your car. I was the only silver G37 sedan there. Not that anyone ever notices it... lol

After Sam is done with the AT Trans. you can bet it will be bullitt proof!

Hopefully Sam will have my VB ready soon. The torque converter should be ready in my car with in a few weeks. It has a 3200 rpm stall. This should improve my 1/4 mile times.
My tranny shifts well but Sam says that with his VB it will shift even better.
I would my hold my breath on a fully build transmion from GTM till some time next year. R & D takes a long time and Sam will not release it till he tests it.
I feel with the VB. converter and his tranney cooler it should be ok as long as you do not hammer it 6th or 7th gear.
Can not wait to see how it works with my stage 2 SC and my 4.08 gears. (some time next year if im lucky) He is still waiting for the SC from rotex.
With my bolts on's the car is really quick especially after i installed the m370 intake in 1st and 2nd gear.
Z

ya guys my trans fail because of my driving style. i am a hwy way driver and I hammer on it in the upper gears. I was warned by Sam about this and i knew it might be an issue. Sam will have my trans for as long as he wants it for R&D. I am in no hurry to get it back. Time line could be in any ball park and Sam will not know anything more until he sees my trans.

Oh and elim. na na na na na na I have had my SC first. ha.

My dear Canadian cousin

4.5 stroker with stage 2 Sc and fully built tranny with 4.08 gears.

Its worth the wait.

Zzzzzzzz you.

theDreamer, any updates on the updated parts?
;)

Got the updated piece and Baker Tuning has it.
Scheduling a time to get it on and back on a dyno.

:eekdance::eekdance::tup:

Hi,SAM I need advice from you. After I installed Supercharger kit gear system problems. It can not accommodate the increased capacity. In your web parts to customize the architecture I equation. To support the customization engine I want to know that I will be able to order or not. The details are as follows.
1. Valve Body upgrade GTM RE5R01A-HP or Transgo Valvebody upgrade kit RE5R05A-HD2.
2. Direct clutch power pack GTM RE5R05A.
I will be able to order what response with

Thank you
Tam tkf

You can order all these parts on line, here is the link GTM Motorsports*::*Search results

or shoot an e mail to sam@gtmpower.com

Sam

Are these parts for the 7AT ?? So that the auto could handle forced induction ??

Properly My car is a Model A automatic transmission, it caused crash when I tuned on the Dyno car, so I use HKS F-CON V PRO, we tuned to the horsepower of 441 HP and can not tune to because the gear collapse I need advice from you.

guys stop that..

no these transmission updates are not for 7AT

Sam, I think you should mention in your site that these trany builds are for 5AT so the new owners can know what they are looking at.

Sam will be getting my trans to start some R&D on it very soon. &at needs to be able to handel more power.

Yes. People. There are no updated parts for the 7AT right now.

All Transmission parts on our web site are identified per trans model, there is very little place for confusion, We will be adding anther drop down where you insert you vehicle info for the trans model specific choice.

FYI

RE5R05A is for the 5AT
JR710E is for the 7AT

Sam

Oh... my bad. :)

Thanks for the info...:tiphat:

I should do. Because of this honoring of the car when I am not available now.

Any updates on the GTM front? I forget how long it's been... a couple of months, that the redesigned charge pipe has been available? I haven't seen any dyno's. Do you have boost numbers? Did the PSI go up? Personally, I'd like to see a graph of the boost through the rpm range to see what Rotrex's planetrary gear drive is doing to impeller speed vs the belt drive that Vortech uses.
