That’s nice. I want to make the jump to corn but I can’t put down the power I have now, so it doesn’t make much sense chasing more.

Here is a bone stock 2014 Nismo. The higher line is after ECUTEK tune for 93 octane.

Here in California with 91 being the highest octane and it being 4.50/gal. and e85 being half that it doesn't make any sense to run 91 octane. :rofl2:

Just placed an order for a kit. Aaron was a pleasure to deal with and provided tons of info for a new Z owner. Feeling pretty confident this build will be exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!

I've been lurking for a few months trying to decide on the 370 or another car to build. After driving them both I'm too embarrassed to say the other one I was considering lol. Have a long list of parts coming, so I'll probably get a build thread going when I get back home and start tearing into it.

Spill it! It will only be first in a long list of embarrassing admissions you end up making on this forum =)

Basically it came down to SC'ing a 370 or grabbing a crashed BRZ/FRS/86 and doing an LS swap in it. I already have a spare Turn Key LS3 sitting around that was originally destined for a Tacoma project, but I think the Z looks much better in stock trim and would require a lot less work for what I want. I went to the Nissan dealership and had a blast sliding around in their test car, then headed next door to Toyota and test drove an 86. It was just all around underwhelming and the aesthetics unappealing without a lot of bodywork, whereas the stock Z was already a blast to drive and looked amazing.

Welcome! You need to add “the great” to your nym. Just a suggestion... :happydance:

Just placed my order, Aaron was super helpful in answering all my dumb questions, and I'm sure there will be more when it comes time to install. Glad to be joining the boosted club.

OK Guys, I have spent a bunch of time going back and forth on this forum, Youtube and the G37 forums and I think I have it figured out.
For a 7At G37 looking for around 430-450whp (or more) 91oct, can someone(s) let me know if I've figured it out correctly and what I may be missing?:
1. Buy TopGunz A2A full kit
2. Buy Aeromotive 340 fuel pump and CJM billet tophat assembly
3. Buy injectors somewhere around 750
4. Keep an eye on my stock cats and probably get some (Berks?) in the near future
5. Get ECUTek, I have a reputable ECUTek shop near me.
6. MAFs, shouldn't need to upgrade if I'm under 500hp?

That seems like everything I could find, am I on the right track?

You can use stock MAFs and get an Omni or Haltech MAP to ask your tuner doing hybrid tuning in ECUTek. Don't use stock cats. It will only hinder the performance. Remember the more the back pressure you reduce the more the performance you can improve. I'd recommend injector size 850 If your sure you won't go E. Last but not least, I'd strongly recommend you get a trans oil cooler for your automatic G.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll definitely go with 850 and a trans cooler.

If you need help with anything (if you're doing it yourself), I'm right on the other side of the water from you!

I went with a fuel return system and test pipes as well. I got ID1050x injectors. Topgunz can get you a great deal on those! My car runs like stock even with injectors that big. I also still use stock MAFs.
