Nissan 370Z Forum  

FI guys, how hard are your beating on your cars

I probably win on miles, over 10k. I beat on it every other gas tank and enjoy it everyday. Not saying I am pushing it to a track level all

I probably win on miles, over 10k.
I beat on it every other gas tank and enjoy it everyday. Not saying I am pushing it to a track level all the time but my car gets pushed to it's end a good bit.

Stock block and FunctionTuned originally tuned my car but unfortunatley he is out of business.The second tune was with PFS in Frederick,MD and i picked up quite a bit of power as my original tune was ultra conservative.

Keith's car has been pretty bullet proof so far, even if Alberto says he is old and slow...

I may go up to PFS in fredneck to get mine retuned if I decide to ditch the canned tune from Sam.

I drive mine like I stole it every day. I will be looking for a motor to build up eventually. But right now I don't see any problems with the car. 6K into my FI adventure it still does not burn a drop of oil and I flog it pretty hard, Kirky likes the Redline...

I beat up my car last night...first time it's been taken to redline since ZDayz! It's only been 3 months.

Wait, so you're saying there's such thing as a 370Z doesn't burn a drop of oil?

I drive my N/A with full bolt on and the 4.08 gear hard every day and have gone at least 75 times the 1/4 mile, and i shift at 7700 rpm.
It does not burn any oil.
break them in hard and lean them out and they run great.
Can not wait for stage 2 SC from GTM.
