230 at idle???? thats very high. I haven't broken 220 since I got the SC installed. Normally runs at 200 deg when I'm driving normally. I do have a giant oil cooler though, I think you should too.

yeah, i noticed that my engine is running alot hotter after the SC. i'm looking for a good oil cooler right now. any recommendations? i'm not sure if i can use the Stillen one since my heat exchanger is mounted on the left side right behind the power steering. the GTM or Z1 looks promising.

We have a 19-row and a 25-row kit, and I can get you some details on mounting the cooler to work in conjunction with the heat exchanger.

sure, but i would really want to mount that cooler on the passenger side to avoid relocating the oem power steering cooler. is it possible?

Just pulled the trigger on the stillen supercharger along with STILLEN High Performance Clutch / Aluminum Flywheel Combo, stillen race version oil cooler and b&m short throw shifter. Looking to upgade brakes in the future am i missing anything?

This is for all the guys in NC. My SC will be installed on the 28th of June at Pinehurst Nissan. If you want to stop in to see how it is going I am sure the folks there will not mind.

RCZ,
I know you had a lot of things done to your car before you got your SC installed, did you have to take anything out for your SC to fit/work right? like your intake?

Thanks

RCZ · 06-21-2010, 08:50 AM

Intakes had to go because the SC kit has its own intake system. Other than that, nothing had to be changed or replaced.

To me, the worse attributes of the 370Z are the high rpm engine vibration and it's sraight line performance. Everything else about the Z is pretty damn wonderful. With that said, it's straight line performance is essentially the same as the ISF. So if you're into performance driving, the ISF is a real snoozer because it's best performance is in a striaght line. With it's 8 speed auto, it launches hard and predictable. You can't really even manually shift it though, because of it's low redline and 8 speed tranny. You'll be constantly banging the rev limiter. If you want to race people 0-60 and do nothing else performance oriented with the ISF, it would be ok, but if you're into performance driving, chances are you spend a lot of time in corners, cresting hills and charging out of corners. The Z provides huge ammounts of driving enjoyment doing that in ways that even my C6 Corvette couldn't. With a supercharger on the Z, there would be no comparison to the ISF.
