Do Not Buy headers. The GTM kit comes with headers since that is what the turbo bolts to. As for breathing better the test pipes will be better but just depends on your laws. I know NJ does emission testing and they also do a inspection for where they make sure Cats are on your car so when that happens I will have to put the stock ones on for that. But that is your choice.

Would Stillen Headers fit with the turbo kit???

No unless they were designed to have a turbo bolt to it which I highly doubt.

All a matter of convincing the Mrs. of the need to drop 10k into my car...lol and maybe ask her for a loan from her deployment stash while she's off fighting the war in Afghan....lol More then likely that's a hell no, and I'll end up on my own. Especially because she watched me drop all that stuff into my G, only to total it with her in it (not my fault of course) lol....But one day :eekdance:

NISMO221,
The Stillen Headers and normal 370z test pipes are not necessary. The GTM Kit comes complete with the necessary turbo manifolds, hardware and down pipes with their kit. The Greddy Ti-C exhaust WILL be a nice upgrade though and sounds great on a GTM TT 370z!

If you would like to hear what a car with this setup sounds like, I invite you to come by the shop. We have a 7AT '09 370z here now that has this exact setup on it.

These guys are giving you great advice. I think it was Toner that said boost controller, oill kit and exhaust. I like Greddy and actually make better profit off of their kit but I would have a turn key kit over a tuner kit(ball bearing FTW). Let me know when you want to do this.

JB-370z 09-07-2010 11:34 AM

Hahaha Love that quick response time Matt. Must you must have an app for that..........JK

Okay thanks everyone for the info, I really am lost when it comes to turbo systems and setups.

Anyone know of a good website to fined a pillar pod for the boost gauge? and other ideas where to mount the gauge. I thought about removing the small box where the GPS goes in other models and making a plate to hold the boost gauge and a boost controller. Anyone know if the box could be removed easy or if all that would even fit there?

Also its alittle off subject but has anyone ever dealt with Z1 Motorsports in Georgia? I know about a 3 months ago I was going to take my 1990 300zx up there for a complete over haul, like $26k worth. But I had alot of questions and the guy did not seem to want to talk. Idk im sure I was asking stupid questions and the guy was busy. But Im new to this and I want to understand everything Im having done. This is one of the reasons I went ahead and bought a 370z. Im sure everyone at Z1 knows Zs inside and out, thats the reason Im still considering taking my new 370 there. But I need someone that will work with me. So has anyone else had this problem or did I just call them at a bad time?

There is the option to remove the 3 gauges which hold oil temp, voltage and a clock and replace with other gauges.
You can also run digital gauges like I have.

I can say I know what your talking about. They did the same to me years ago a couple of times. Even flat out lied to me. I've always prayed to see him again. Then I see above there acutally posting they like the Greddy kit when years ago they told me it was the worst kit on the market. Probably due to they were a APS distributor at the time. So I went down the road and stayed away from them at all cause. They seem to have there own little following. Now I know alot more so I know how to sort at all the BS most shops give you.

I never dealt with z1 personnally but I heard good things about them. As far as the greedy situation idk but he clearly said in his post that he would go with the gtm kit over the greedy kit. He also said he makes more money off the greedy kit and he still is saying go with the GTM kit. I think that is honesty right there and him not trying to sell him a lesser quality product so he can make more money. So for that in my opinion +1 to Z1

Never dealt w/ Z1 personally, but i would go talk with them, and probably do some research on some other boards with previous gen Z's and read reviews from other customers. Remember if for some reason you aren't satisfied, the best thing about the GTM kit is that you can actually have them do the install. They aren't just a manufacturer or importer like GReddy is.

I can't stay out of this damn FI section.It's like an itch that just won't go away! I hate you the370z.com, soon my wallet will hate you too!:excited:

if its a manual a clutch would be a good add on but you might explode your csc. just a discliamer might not happen, might happen anyway.
