GT Motorsports: 370Z Supercharger system development

MMC Racing · 11-07-2009, 07:47 PM

I found no superchargers for 370z/G37's at SEMA this week - unless they were hiding..

jmlenz · 11-07-2009, 09:08 PM

well this just sucks...

^^rofl

man this thread is so fugin dead..... we need the supercharger update already

1slow370 · 11-08-2009, 08:18 AM

Well I have an update- Playing some Forza3 went into the upgrades section and our car sucks hard. HKS TT kit - $4600, +67hp Blitz twin screw - $3,700, +27 HKS centrifugal supercharger - $3,300, +23hp. 23hp for a fookin supercharger? HKS Sucks.

^^ Hahaha....23hp does such hard for a SC.

Keep in mind though, it is a game. I can almost assure you that any FI will give you more than 23hp. Heck, some aftermarked CBE make close to 20hp. If you throw in HFC, then you're definitely over 23hp, in most cases. I don't see how a CBE (+HFC) and SC, seperately, will make close to the same results.

You can upgrade the turbo & supercharger in the game. Lol, newb.

Yeah It's a total joke i don't really give much cred to video game results although they are interesting.

Did they change it up from Forza 2? like once you buy the lame azz blower (i don't care if you can upgrade it 23 hp is terrible even for stage one thats like a fourth of the old stillen stage 1's numbers) does the next upgrade option come up? they only show the 3 under the F/I conversion tab and i don't want to waste my creds on it if thats all it is. Seeing as how the game lacked a manual i have nothing to go by either.

Edit: Yup figured it out. Thats way worse of a setup than forza 2

Edit2: Ok its still GEHY the stage four blower adds another 27hp! a whopping 426whp we'll see what an intercooler does oh another 28hp

Lol, use it properly. I have a 370Z in F3 and I maxed it out. If you want an R3 car, your best bet is to do the engine swap to the RB26 and max it out. But I made 600hp N/A with the VQ. And 759hp with the turbo. But the RB goes to 980hp or or so and that made a BIIIIG difference.

Oh and all parts work together. You'll notice a big gain doing other engine mods. Try the camshafts.

1slow370 · 11-09-2009, 02:07 AM

yeah i saw the 98hp camshafts but i felt that would be a disgrace considering you can't change the cams on or motor. I wanted to try building the car out the way i actually plan to do it so the unrealistic numbers on the supercharger kits really have me upset. Not gonna lie i don't excel at racing games so i don't get that seroius about them it's just a way to kill time.

JoeyD · 11-09-2009, 12:25 PM

It's a sad state of things when we have to resort to video games to get our modding fix. Somebody up date this thread with valuable information please.

That being said. I've run every possible power configuration in the Z on Forza 3. My favorite is the R390 TTV8. Way fun!

simota1 · 11-09-2009, 04:12 PM

hahahah

Zsteve · 11-09-2009, 07:14 PM

looks like all the SC manufactures are AWOL after being no shows at SEMA.

jmlenz · 11-10-2009, 01:35 PM

Did GTM not even show with their TT kit at SEMA?

Mike@GTM · 11-10-2009, 02:59 PM

Hey guys, sorry about the delay in updates. We were really pushing to get this up and going for SEMA, but our rapid prototyping company did not get the stuff back to us on time.

We are simultaneously developing the Supercharger kit for both the 370Z and G37 and not having the parts in hand to finish the kits really killed our timeline for the show. We are disappointed that we couldn't get this out to the show. We should be getting the parts back in our hands within the next couple of days and we will have an update for you guys very soon.

Thanks,
-Mike
