Brazilbro's GTM TT

DIGItonium · 10-04-2010, 11:32 PM

What electronics and clutch/flywheel setup are you running with this TT build?

Brazilbro · 10-04-2010, 11:47 PM

So far running stock everything..besides exaust and test pipes. Though I do have a Greddy Profect B boost controller..
I don't even have a oil cooler yet.. figured I'd be ok untill summer

DIGItonium · 10-04-2010, 11:54 PM

Haha nice... do you have videos of the start up and what not? I'd like to hear what it sounds like especially with the stock exhaust. I wonder how the exhaust manifold affects the sound. Right now I have the stock cats and TDX cat back.

What I am also curious about is extended driving to see what happens to the throttle response (i.e., stall around 2k with 50% throttle in 1st and 2nd).

Just a couple of shety videos I did today.. There will be more.
Video 1 is me in front of my house trying to get traction.
Video 2 is a 3 gear pull with VDC On.. check out the light blinking

congrats on the kit!..Sam's stuff is definatley top notch!

Jeffblue · 10-21-2010, 04:13 PM

fixed the vids for you.

that looks awesome btw. did you do the install yourself or a shop did it?

how much boost are you running? what kind of numbers are you expecting to see on a dyno? how does it feel on the butt dyno.

Brazilbro · 10-21-2010, 04:18 PM

Thanks for the fix Jeff.. A shop in Louisville Ky call Performace Motors did the install. Its pushing between 7-8PSI and my butt Dyno is telling me when It hooks up I'm probably at least 425whp.. Hoping the dyno hits 450+.. If not I'll just have Sam send me a better tune!
I go to the dyno wed.!

Jeez, VDC really pulled all the steam out of your 3rd gear pull! Thanks for the speedo shot, I have been looking all over for shots of accelerations with 370Zs that are FI. Looks great!

Yea I didn't even notice that he had it on. I always turn mine off, i figured still pulling with that trying to correct me could cause damage to it.

Even with VDC active, that 3rd gear pull is definitely very nice! Props!

Brazilbro · 10-21-2010, 08:55 PM

Tomorrow I'll turn the VDC off.. I figured I'd better leave it on since I only had one hand on the wheel

KaienZ34 · 10-21-2010, 09:05 PM

TT Z makes me...

Haha man, I had the same problem doing rolling 1st gear tests. I have a little Canon POS camera that I started recording and held it centered underneath the upper rim of the steering wheel.

Ah, I almost forgot to ask. Is there much difference to your exhaust sound after installing the turbos? Any rasp? Deepness? Smoothness? Loudness?

Well I have the resonated test pipes and HKS exhaust but to be honest my car is quite. From my understanding turbo cars are more silent then NA cars since the turbo muffles the sound.

After hearing Frank's car, it is not that loud. But such a nice sound and kit.
Almost done saving my pennies
