Nissan 370Z Forum  

Realistically speaking, how much power could the stock Z handle?

HotrodZ does trackdays with with his. He's pushing over 600+ hp on a stock block.

Our friend Hotrodz has all the supporting mods for his set up and I know his tune is spot on. If my memory serves me right didn’t Sebie do his tune? When pushing our VQ37HR engines to max I am a firm believer in the faster you push the envelope the less reliable it will be.

Stock block, stock internals for now. He's planning on a built motor soon. HotrodZ pushes his Z, but he also takes care of it too.

Yea, Seb did his tune. The tune is everything on a motor when you go FI. A bad tune will give you nightmares of your credit report. A good tune, and you're a happy camper like HotrodZ.

The limiting factor is torque. If you keep the torque below 500 ftlbs. The motor lives. But once you start going higher on torque. The faster it will go BANG! That seems to the consensus.
