So who is getting one of these in south florida?

Besides you?

I wouldn't worry too much about it. The supercharger sits in place of the alternator, and the alternator has a openings in the case to aid in heat dissipation, so if that doesn't have any issues i can't see where the 100% sealed supercharger would have any problems.

Now that being said ... since i'm originally from the midwest and have been to chicago in the winter i have two words ... WINTER BEATER! its far cheaper than the damage you could do to the poor Z.

The really major selling point for us cali folks - when do you expect to get your CARB stage out? That intro price is nuts.... how much time do you estimate the install / tune would take for this?

what are the required maintenances with this kit for optimal performance?

SC kit oil change at every 3k and belt replacement at every 30-40K?

The Rotrex oil should be changed every 2 years/50000 miles, or whichever comes first with only The Rotrex traction fluid Rotrex SX100. as for the belt we are using BANDO belts which is the the number one OEM supplier and i have seen the belt last up to 60 k

Sam

How much would an "oil change" cost with the supercharger? With it being specific fluid, it has me curious...

Im not getting one of these.



Hey Sam quick question. That stage 3 kit you are selling online, the 550hp one, is that kit released? Would be interesting to get the specs on it.

If its a pre-order still, thats fine too, it just doesn't say anywhere that it is. I wouldn't want to be a customer who pays 6k for something to find out its not released yet. Might want to add something in there to let people know if thats the case...

The stage 3 kit is not released yet, it should be released by the time the stage one is ready ship and any of the customer that have taken advantage of the introductory pricing will have the option to upgrade to stage Two or stage three before shipping the stage one .


Sam

It is about 100.00 Dollars .

Sam

I think for being in California would recommend the supercharger kit.

Sam

have you got a new dyno with a cbe yet?

Not yet, The catback is on the car but have not got a chance to dyno it yet . the dyno has been tied up with some others projects. i should able to do that before the end of the weekend .

Sam

This looks super sweet, and yes I edited my question just because after going over the 23 pages I saw my question was taken care of. Keep up the good work GTM.

woot sam i might want to go with stage 3 now not stage 2. but i think my peeps will talk me out of it cuz my tranny might not hold up even wth the VB upgrade. what do you think?

VB upgrade? Please clarify...

he is talking about his tranny! you know the wrong parts on the wrong thing! should have went manual :shakes head:

Man that sounds like something else man! LOL

EXACTLY! yall up north better watch out for shumby!!!

Bullitt, you done yet??

no :(

Sucks when people ask...doesn't it.

:icon18:

I think you guys with the 6? mt better get use to getting your ***** kicked by the 7 AT's.
Just wait till my GTM SC is up and running. Stage ? with all the toys.
Z's car car with a VB and a 2900 stall converter + 305 35 18 drag radials set up for the 1/4 mile. = a made in Canada 11.6, 1/4 mile time.
Soon to be a stock GTR's worst night mare.
a quick up date on the N/A run, the braille 15 lb battery arrived yesterday. the target now is 12.52 with 320 RWHP.
Just think what the GTM is going going to run.
Sam we need you to build a fully modified 7 AT.
If you build it I will buy it.

i think it is other way around......... if you put your money down, he will build one for you :bowrofl::bowrofl:

plus, there is huge difference between AT vs MT..............

i personally prefer my sports cars with MT.......more control, better response.....

Before I ordered my Z I drove both the Manual and Automatic and I was impressed with the response of the auto trans but I didnt like the manual shift mode though. It felt really forced when I was shifting it and I just seemed awkward shifting with the paddles on the steering wheel.

In my opinion there is no experience that matches a manual trans. When you really have the feel of the clutch down on the manual trans and your just blasting the car there is nothing quite like the feel of that perfect smooth shifting action of going throught the gears as your accellerating.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO




Not a AT vs MT thread now. please stay away



lol.



But seriously AT faster them MT just saying............................................ .................................................. .................................................

:iagree: on both ideas

Do you really have to list out all your specs and times in each and every one of your posts? lol just messing

you got to admit he got some impressive times. And Sam you know if he did not post everything someone would be on here calling BS

I love the fact that he lists that stuff.... Seems like he really knows what he's talkin about... Sorry for the off topic, just wanted to give my 2 cents... Can't wait to see the 11 second 1/4 by Z eliminator....gonna be nasty.

Can anyone tell me if there is a release/ship date for the Stage 1 kit? Its the only thing keeping me from buying the GTM kit over the Stillen.

The stage 1 kit will shipping sometime in April .

Sam

do you sleep sam? haha:D good job bud

Was that a play on words?

No it was not, just bad spelling.

Sam

Anyone can hold down the brake, rev to 2900 (or whatever your convertor's stall is) and let it go.

Sounds like A LOT of fun.

barely these days, You sleep when you die :D

Sam

would there be a way to move that oil filter? maybe even turning it sideways?
