Test Drove GTM S/C and TT back-to-back--impressions

NewlyIMPORTed · 01-17-2011, 05:05 PM

Wow thanks for the review I will be getting the S/C when the time comes.

Very nice review....but there is nothing like a TT setup when it spools.

RCZ · 01-17-2011, 06:10 PM

Thanks a lot for the writeup, lots of good insight and I think you deserve some rep points for this.

Glad to see the S/C kits getting the respect they deserve

wow awesome review!

DIGItonium · 01-18-2011, 12:34 AM

My head hurts from constantly debating between the two. It seems like I would benefit greatly from a daily driven SC setup over a TT setup in terms of throttle response. As ricey as it seems, I like the TT sound. Plus, I miss the TT feeling of the Z32.

Man this is really noobish, but I seriously haven't driven a turbo car in a long time. Perhaps I should take my dad's Z32-TT out again. His car spools up easily for daily driving and it's fun, so this is what I hope to achieve when giving my car the TT treatment.

i just test drove GTM's S/C 370Z this morning. my first impression was "WOW". this thing moves on just about every single gear. it felt smooth, lot's of low end power when you need or want it. what a big difference between my kit and GTM's. i was driving around and i only had a big @$$ happy grin in my face during that short drive. i can't wait till everything is done.

Thank You Sam!

GraphiteG37S · 01-22-2011, 07:39 PM

That's awesome Wei... How long does Sam think he'll have your car?

You're switching from Stillen to GTM, right?
