GT Motorsports: 370Z Supercharger system development

Red370 · 12-30-2009, 09:10 PM

wow, that looks like a shyt ton of custom fab and man hours, hopefully the numbers are where we hope they'll be.

StillenZ · 12-30-2009, 09:28 PM

^^ I agree... be gentle with the figures Sam!

JB-370z · 12-30-2009, 09:43 PM

Sam I thought I told you to take a break until the new year!

The kit looks great and I know yall are going to make alot of money off this kit due to the price! Hope it can get to 450-500 and then we got a money maker for sure! To bad you cant sell this at the 2010 TAS show, you would make a killing over there, and im sure you will make more power than their HKS super comming out.

Let me put in a very simple way ... The GTM SC kit will the best bang for buck period, great price and it will deliver .

The extensive R&D and work that we are doing so we can offer a kit that was build and designed around your car not " let's build the car around the kit" big difference

Is this kit going to be cheaper then the stillen kit? If it is I might have to switch sides to GTM

Can someone tell me what I'm looking at here? It looks like a set of test pipes with j-bend O2 sensor mounts and a set of O2 bungs for wide bands if needed. What I don't understand is, are the pipes hard mounted to the frame? Are the stock cats mounted the same way?

One_Quick_Z · 12-31-2009, 11:18 PM

Yes they have a arm that bolts to the frame but this is the wrong thread for this question.

Is the stock like this?

How do you figure this is the wrong thread Dan? It's the pictures from page one on the build up. I'm asking a question about pictures and this build.

One_Quick_Z · 12-31-2009, 11:51 PM

Ha sorry thought you posted the pics, Yes stock Bolts to the Car the same way with rubber bushings to

Anytime you force air into an engine, it sure will, should sound awesome

Minicobra1 · 01-01-2010, 05:31 PM

Sam,

couple of questions,

1. Will you be going for CARB approval on the stage 1 or any of the kits?
2. Will you be including an oil cooler with any of the kits? I"m assuming that this will be a must have.
3. Any thought on how the intercooler will block air flow to the radiator effecting engine temps, especially in stop and go traffic?

Thanks for all the updates, great work!!

A S/C shouldn't heat the air as much as a TT setup would, so an intercooler shouldn't have to work "that" hard in stop/go. At least, that's my thought.
