Nissan 370Z Forum  

does the stock 370 have tow hooks?

I just got the brake cooling kit so I don't know how well it works yet. The exhaust is perfect for daily driving. It is about OEM quiet if driving

The exhaust is perfect for daily driving. It is about OEM quiet if driving normal but sounds really nice when accelerating hard. I hate that it is heavier than stock though so I might change it out with somthing lighter at some point.

It is heavier than stock? Wtf! Why? What point is more HP if the car weighs more, they cancel each other out?

I'm sure you know this already, but some may not.

It depends on how much weight and how much hp are added. Ignoring all the other aspects of a vehicle, as long as the power/weight ratio improves, you can add weight all day long.

What about inertia? or do people only think about power? What's all that power if you can't stop worth a dime? The heavier the car, the more it will take to stop That's why Base/S model stops at a shorter distance than Nismo.

Well, considering the 2013 Genesis Coupe has more HP per pound I just thought it'd be nice to work towards evening that difference up

From the 370z weight reduction thread you can see it gains 11.3 pounds but that can be offset will high flow cats

STILLEN Exhaust
Muffler Section - 39.6lbs (proven huge hp gains)
Y-Pipe - 11.3lbs
Resonated Y-Pipe - 14.4lbs
Total: 65.3lbs

Difference: +11.3lbs and 18whp


The Berk Cats are 5.5 lbs a piece for 11 lbs total, versus 21 lbs for stock.
