GTM Performance Engineering 370Z SUPERCHARGER KIT PRESS RELEASE

G37Sam · 11-01-2010, 04:46 PM

May I suggest a PPG Dog Box

camuman · 11-01-2010, 09:03 PM

quick question, what is the max rated blower speed that c38 can do, and what is the blower speed of your kit at the specified stages?

rotrex blowers are very efficient, but the s2000 guys have learned the hardway that the rpm limit they are rated too is a hard hard cap. guys pushing them just 5% higher have destroyed them. this is the c30 though. but i would guess they are very similar in design, just the c38 slightly bigger.

again, not hating, these blowers generate the least amount of heat i have ever seen on a blower setup!

Is GTM going to inspect the blown tranny to see what caused it?

^^^ no i don't think i'll be shipping it from canada to Sam at this point. Still no word from the dealer will call them today

damn me too...

GUTCH · 11-06-2010, 12:20 AM

Me three.

Someone has to let us know once they find a solution to the tranny problem. Otherwise I'm going to have to wait a long time until I can afford a GTR ($160,000 in Australia).

RCZ · 11-03-2010, 03:43 PM

^ He already found some stock trannys to replace his with.

GUTCH · 11-03-2010, 04:01 PM

Won't a stock tranny just fail again?

docaam · 11-06-2010, 12:10 PM

I think he bought another tranny already, and this concern hasnt been addressed which I feel is an imp atleast for me if that things is so risky then time to unsubscribe from the thread

Q8y_drifter · 11-06-2010, 12:18 PM

There's numerous Z's and G's with GTM, GReddy, etc twin turbo's running more power and doing so for years now. Terry's twin turbo 5AT sedan has been going for 3 years now? A few threads down there's a 7AT twin turbo Z (or maybe G) pushing over 450whp. I don't think the tranny is that weak. This may be an isolated issue.

I know about 5AT, if you remember I told you even there is one G35 as well with stage II GTM running perfectly fine its with trango trans upgrade but this 7AT is looking scary to me, as this Gs went down maybe because of whatso ever reason and then there is a Coupe here they guy made some arrangements with Uprev to do some testing on his car and they dyno his car for 10-15 times and then after a week again same thing 5,6 and 7th starts slipping not sure why.

For me Im working things out on both levels going for GTM SC kit and looking for any available valvebody and trq converter to be on the safe side, as getting a used tranny is not such a big issue but then getting that down to dubai is a big hassle.

Torque Converter \| Streaker \| Dominator \| Eliminator \| Autoflight Engineering \| Melbourne I'm sure there are others across the country.
