I have been thinking about doing this, another quart of oil is always great to have, but I do agree it sits below the crossmember on our car. While I am sure we will mostly likely not scrap it, I have had a couple things fly under my car and would hate to have it ripped apart.

While I like that piece and know it is designed very well, $1,000 for that piece is extremely overpriced.

On the dyno and still running really rich. Sam is sending a better tune.
Anxious to see the end result. Also still have high oil temps. The NISMO bumper just has no air flow. So we are putting together some things to cool that oil down. Still hitting 250 during normal driving. |

Best so far with ambient air temp at 112 is 381.5 / 331.9
I think we have one more tune for the money. EDIT I will have to get the base numbers but HP was ~267 not sure on TQ. Last edited by wind.zero; 08-20-2011 at 03:10 PM. |

Good idea... I've been giving thought to some custom ducts/deflectors and a small cooling fan.

Updated with Dyno Picture and Video
I want to thank Sam at GTM as well as Kenny, Ty, and Tony at Jotech Motorsports for all of the time they devoted today on my tune. It was pretty much an all day affair and I was ringing Sam before he probably even sat down and thought about coffee this morning. Thanks again to everyone for putting in the time today on my ride. I appreciate the fact that both Sam and Kenny wanted to ensure I had a good, safe tune.
It was another record breaking day in the DFW area today with 107 degrees. Inside the dyno area it was well over 110. I am happy with the results. I think I will see about breaking 400 when outside temperatures are more reasonable. Here is the video of the final dyno run. This was my first time with video so be nice LOL Jotech Motorsports: 2011 Nissan 370Z NISMO GTM Stage 1 SC Dyno - YouTube Not sure why part of the base dyno is missing but you can see the before and after.

I cannot get motivated to cut a duct on the NISMO bumper but I may have no choice. |
