And as far as stock internals go its not the RWHP that kill internals, idk why shops post about how much RWHP a car can hold, seems like that would know better. TQ is an actual force, HP is just a calculation based on TQ. As far as TQ the stock internals can hold i would say the VQ37 is very similar to the VQ35 but it makes drastically more HP due to better flow/efficiency

The question has been asked three times and went unanswered. But stormcrow was the first GTM TT Nismo on east coast. But yea it was installed at GTM though. I don't want to take nothing away from the op. Just don't want to see someone come down hard the them.

This is why a lot of Honda/Acura enthusiasts choose to stay all motor with their mods and their engines last forever despite being beaten on daily (especially since they make very little torque all motor). I'm keeping my Z all motor and I'm looking forward to seeing the sure to follow dyno wars. I just hope threads dont start popping up about internals failing.

i was thinking same thing.

Still always exciting to see these cars

Your so wrong rh_334 why are you trying to put down a shop you apparently seem to know NOTHING about.

"Put down"? Asking questions is "Putting down"

I was just asking questions about their claims, wouldn't you want some proof if for example someone made claims like "10000rwhp on stock block!" same thing, they claim to be #1 so im curious to see proof.

If you let shops claim ridiculous things without proof and never ask questions you will end up with more shops like VRT, SGP, etc...

I can agree with most you are correct that TQ is what kills a motor. But the VQ3.7 and VQ 3.5 De are different the bottom end in the 3.7 is much stronger.

Now as far as Performance being Uprev's number one pro tuner Uprev as said so on there own facebook page they mean as far as volume is concerned. I am not sure about the GTM claim now I dont want you to think I am some fan boy I use a different shop to tune my car just to let you know.

Until people start popping blocks you don't know that for sure. Im not that active in the 3.7 scene, so are their any stock blocks making ~450ft-lb yet? I know that is said to be more than our (VQ35) block can handle. (i guess im lucky:D)

I wasn't saying its untrue, just asking for facts supporting their claims. If thats the case then :tiphat: to them

Close to Newark thats good we can all hook up and have some fun now that the weather is getting better there is a crew of us I will send you a pm later.

I've got my crew on a mailing list at this point :tup:. Now that its getting warmer - I can easily bring out 18 or so high powered cars to play!

[QUOTE=rh_334;969215]So are you saying this is the first 370Z Nismo with a GTM TT INSTALLED on the East Coast? Because that may be true, but there is one in ATL but wasn't installed there.

OK fine. This is the NORTHEAST'S 1st Nismo GTM TT then. I stand corrected sir.


And also i noticed in your sig "#1 GTM Installer" "#1 Uprev Tuner"

How many GTM Kits have you installed?

5 out on the streets. I wont put up the ones that are still being worked on :)
also we've been boosting Z33s and G35s since 2004

How many cars have you tuned with Uprev? NA and FI?
Unfortunately I cannot do it at this moment, but when I get some time, I will try and search through every invoice and dyno sheet if you need that much proof. BUT you can track back on UPREV's facebook and Rich himself says so. safe to say that 3 out of every 5 are N/A tunes.

How long have you been working on VQs? I have been around several years and have never even heard of your shop. So i assume you have no experience with the previous platform (VQ35)

Been around since 2003 with the VQs. Used to drag race when imports still had good support in the drag race world. I'll post up some pics of older articles about it.

I understand you want to try and clear things up but hey, if i offended you with my sig or posts you can always pm or even better, shoot me a call.

One thing you will notice is the 3.7 doesn't make as much TQ as the 3.5VQ's this is due to VVELyou will notice a bigger gap in Whp and TQ numbers however there are a few out there that have 450 ft-lbs of tq.

[QUOTE=JDMFairlady21;969588]:tup: Its sad that your not on my350 im sure you would have alot to contribute to the FI community. Were you behind the project ZED build? i saw the pics on your site.

Also what kind of power are you running on Uprev flashes? (VQ35)

Here's our credentials/ history with VQs :)

We are planning on signing up on there, its just time, too busy and with the drama and politics on there, I personally need to monitor the boards myself lol not just our sales team.... my sn on there is same as here... had a 350ztt built block with PE TT kit etc etc lol

Alex and the guys at performance are Legit, they have always been upfront and welcoming.

:werd:

if you think my skepticism was bad just wait until you post in the FI section :ugh2:

I still have that article. That was a bad z there. Many props to yea.

Yep we still build the engines for Project Zed. They will be coming over end of the month to work on our engine dyno

Update!

My friend is taking the car for me tomorrow. Exhaust will be installed, and dyno done. Updates to come tomorrow night.

If it doesn't rain, then I'm sure we'll get some pulls done with the TT. I want the Stillen car though /rawr

Lol you will get your shot at the Stillen car soon I wont be there tomorrow because I am doing my install. My car will be different than any Stillen 370z out there it should be fun.

nawz?

Lol they do call me Squeeze for a reason lol just joking. I am not going to go all into my set up just yet I will do a full review plus dyno numbers when I am done.I will say this much it is a Cog pulley set up Stillen doesnt use Cog pulleys in there set up at all.

Can I play too :)

Ahh I wish my car was clean. Maybe I'll head over there around 10. I want to ride in the TT Z to feel his coilovers as he may sell them to me.

I have a busy morning but hopefully I can make it there.

Danny you have a lucky friend and a trustworthy one of your letting him take your Z and race it !

Wassup chuck ill be up there around 10ish, see ya there if you can make it out.

My friend just called me and said he had a blast and you guys are legit!!! I hope your video guy got real footage! I'm so mad I didnt go. Hope you had fun with my vehicle. I promise to have it all put back together the next time I go.

PM me or post up all the info you want!

Yup, I'm definitely lucky to have a friend like him, i trust him 100%...

Besides he left me with his car. Audi RS4, HAHA :roflpuke2:

^ good friend.

Also, I believe it made 446whp/429 weather corrected...

AFR's were a little wacky, but they just installed that exhaust so it may have thrown it off a bit. Either way, I'm going to send it over to Sam and then re-dyno with the new tune...I should be able to pull out some more power. I'll have water/meth installed next time too...

Performance Motorsports= Best shop I have ever been to. I love spending all my hard earned money there LOL

I have some great shots of your car on the DYNO... I will work on them tomorrow

Thanks Anthony!

I just did basic touch ups on this... nothing crazy... but if you want me to play around with it and make it more surreal looking just let me know....

No dude, looks sick! Thank you.

danny

car looked amazing in person and the SC kit is pretty nice. Not bad on the install as well man... as a shop, you usually expect the worst when you see a self install FI kit.

Dave was cool as hell and i sent an invite to come back out with that RS4 ;)

Ya it wasnt the cleanest, but as soon as i put back the under try and clean up the bay it'll look fine. Definitly not bad considering how/when we did it in my garage.

Anyway - we'll be both be back soon. Really appreciate everything you did for me last minute!

hey , how did u do the painting headlightmod , did u just take it out and paint it ? thanks
dont forget to add the meshimoto thermostate and hoses they really make a difference .
all help appreciated

I opened the headlight and painted it. Hey guys just and update I went to vinny ten racing yestrday because he had a dyno day, and since everyone says performance motorsports dyno isn't accurate I wanted to see the difference. Vinny has a dynojet and the car put down 490whp still on 6psi.

Were there stock 370Zs on the dyno? What were they making?

Beautiful looking shop!

Thank You. I would say come on in but I noticed you are in Florida :) If you ever are up in the area, feel free to stop in
