2010 Stillen Nissan 370Z Review ? Stillen Performance Parts Make One Killer 370Z ? RoadandTrack.com

Nice article. However, it makes me a lot LESS interested in scraping together $6300 + installation charges to get the SC kit. 0-60 in 4.5s and 12.8s 113mph 1/4 mi? Not as impressive as I was expecting (although maybe I'm being unrealistic). The 1/4mi was my major disappointment...that's a marginal gain over the stock 370's time.

For the price of the kit and install along with all the other bolt-ons as well as the headache if you have problems, you should just buy a Cayman S.

Total is $8K dealer installed plus your powertrain warranty is voided, however the work is warranty for 1 yr. :ugh2:

yeah forreal,im hoping for waaaaaay better 1/4 mile times if my Z is being Force Fed,12.8 ? not worthh it.

shitty drivers fellas, didnt yall read the part where they said their stock time was a 5.3? and their stock 1/4 was 13.7 @103? they dropped 8/10s on their 0-60 and almost a full second in the 1/4, whats that mean? that guys running low 13's can run low 12's, put on some D/R's and the car will do 11's. Thats nothing to scoff at gentlemen.

Scoff scoff scoff :). I'll believe low 12s 1/4mi times with that kit when I see them published. And not with some tricked out Z running R-compounds.

ya gotta understand man, not too many cars running street tires are going to have fast 1/4 mile times, when you have that much power, all you're going to do is spin in the pit, you need stickier tires to launch harder, 500+ hp on the stockers is way too much for those tires to handle.

The times look pretty good to me. I don't know about the car having 500hp though. I'd like to see the dyno chart and what kind of dyno was being used to calculate this '500hp' and under what conditions. It's about on par with an E92 M3.

Considering we have people on this forum with bolt-ons running 12.8s@110...

That car should be running LOW 12s/HIGH 11s at around 116+MPH given the power its said to be making. Driver mod maybe?

Yeah.
Not going to buy it. The mustang GT 255 rubber--runs better times than that Stillen Z, supposedly with more torque and less horsepower.

The trap-speed does not back up a 500bhp claim. Not one bit.

The ET of 12.8 with the trap of 113 is right on for an FI car that makes most of its power in the top end of the RPM band on street-tires with a mild launch. The car is probably putting down around 375-385whp.

I must agree with this.... As Import Convert stated, we have bolt on guys running these numbers (almost). I bet this is a case of bad driving.....

Have you ever seen a C6 Z06 magazine time in the high-12's? That is the kind of hp/weight ratio we are talking here, nearly. Find me a C6 Z06 time/trap magazine-time within half a second and 5mph of that and I will buy it, until then--inflated numbers.

Better yet, find me a similar magazine-time AND trap for a GT500. It has tires just as narrow, or narrower, and similar power, with LOTS more weight.

I'm just not buying it. Not at all.

My S ran high 10's on street tires, Invo's at that. It can be done with proper driving.

Im sorry, but that is just straight pathetic even on street tires IMHO.
