It is too late, we had to do a pre-sale of tickets to reserve the theater and it sold out last Friday.
You might be able to go into the HZ Facebook page and see if anyone is not going who already paid & buy the ticket off of them.

Thanks for the update. I will wait until im approved on the group but it looks like I will most likely have to sit this one out.

So I found this add on craigslist.

Stage 1.5 gtm procharger kit for 370z or g37
(Description)
For sale I have a used gtm stage 1.5 supercharger kit with everything minus the injectors. The kit itself has 12k miles on it and will easily make 500hp on 8psi. This kit is for a 370z or a g37 asking 3000$ obo, this kit goes for 7000$ brand new. Any questions just shoot me a text any time

I contacted the seller and he said his friends motor threw a rod and he is selling it.

I am not sure if I am ready to gamble with a used bolt-ons like this. I dont have a technical experience for buying used FI. I think I will keep saving for a new kit with a warranty. But the price isnt bad for somebody who knows what they are doing.

No photos and missing injectors, probably will need a new fuel pump also.
Also was this on a Z or a G, the piping is completely different between the two so if was a G then expect to pay for new piping.

Honestly the SC is less of a hit to jump into, but unless you have an extra 5k just laying around to be ready for whenever something happens then pass. 3,000 is a nice buy in for a used kit, but you will need to be adding injectors, fuel pump, install, tune to the list plus any other upgrades required (oil cooler, exhaust, etc).

No need to go to GTM, 99% of the parts are supplied from other sources, GTM used 3rd parties to make the piping, bought rotrex parts from other distributors (I found who actually sold GTM all their rotrex parts), and the fuel is all drivers choice.

Only thing GTM really did in the end was put a few weeks into making some pipe & then sending it off to be made by another company.

Just ran across a white 370z with black wheels and a nice body kit. He had a Houston's Z decal on the side window. Gave him a glance but couldnt get any closer because of traffic.

The thread is dead because almost all activity is posted via FB/Instagram and sometimes twitter. The forums are a relic for group posting and updates.
