I can only imagine what kind of numbers this TT kit will put on the 370Z. I guess only time will tell.

motaboata · 11-13-2008, 06:48 PM

Actuallly click on the altered atmosphere logo on the top that g thirty 7 on there is his! lmao

ultrablue · 11-25-2008, 02:26 PM

Somehow Im a bit skeptical of these cars pulling off 490 to the wheels with a fully stock motor. as the chart claims. Also, if that is a stock motor, it wont be a motor for much longer.

Im a skeptic by heart, but I do like what I see there. and the actual turbocharger is a VERY good one Had a GT3037 on my eclipse. Which model is this one?

Also, doesnt the actual bumper affect negatively the intercooler's performance?

What boost are you running to get those numbers?

Any issues with the tuning?

So far, the VQ37VHR that is in the G37 has been shown to hold up to 500whp daily without any issues reported yet.

Time will only tell as people start to boost these motors.

I'll see if I can get additional specs on the kit.

ultrablue · 11-26-2008, 12:19 PM

Like I said, if it is a stock motor, it wont be for very long. The G37 has only been out for a year. That long isnt enough IMO to blow your motor. But these are rock solid motors, and they should last a LONG time. but that LONG time will be brought down to 2 or 3 years with 500whp.

Thanks, Im very interested in seeing full specs of this kit.

LiquidZ · 12-22-2008, 03:24 PM

I'm with Blue on this one.

I really don't think these motors will last long at all on 500 rwhp. I hope to be proven wrong though.

18rgcelica73 · 12-22-2008, 03:49 PM

You do have to remember though this is on only about 10-12 intercooled psi. I have seen 10+ pounds of boost on a motor upwards of 10.5:1 compression and it held up excellently. It really all comes down to how good of a tune you have on it. No engine pushed hard enough even stock will last a life time, but yes this will sacrifice the longevity of the motor but I think it will be fine. Like I said it all depends on the tune.

terrycs · 12-25-2008, 04:23 PM

Longevity is greatly related to how the car is driven. For example, an engine boosted and tuned to 1000 WHp will last a long time if it is never driven at max power. Any car (including stock ones) that are beaten will not last as long. We're already hearing of problems with a stock GTR on launch control if it is driven hard.

Even with my low boost controller setting of 5-6 psi on my VQ35HR, hooking it up is very difficult, even with 285 tires. Maybe this is a blessing to help the drive train survive? Even though I'm tuned to 9-10 psi, I hardly ever go there.

shumby · 12-25-2008, 04:32 PM

^^^ hey Terrycs you the same on Myg37 Right?

Hello everyone ... same terrycs that's on all the other sites. Since all the VQ are pretty much share a lot of common components, I'm here to learn about the new Z as well.

Crash · 12-26-2008, 06:10 AM

I'd like to see how the bottom end is holding up in the boosted cars pushing 490 or better to the ground. Has anyone pulled apart a vq37 after it's been driven for a while like this?

And yeah, it's true that you still need to beat on the car to get it to wear. But I'm sure that anyone who's putting 490 to ground or better isn't driving it slow up on ramps and what not.

I drive my Solstice very grandpa like until I get to on-ramps, long straight aways, and when I see an opertunity to get it sideways! Trust me, the car spends MOST of the time in the boost!
