So guys promised that I was planning on doing something big, well here it is boys and girls the one the only GTM Stage 1.5 Supercharger. Spaecial thanxs goes to Vivid Racing, they did a very professional job and really made this transaction easy for me. Of course there is no need to me to go into the high quality of the GTM kit, they did an amazing job with this and really the quality shows, they guys at the shop were just amazed at the finish and quality of the kit and the way everything was packed and orgainzed and labled, and trust me these guys have seen their fair share of FI kits so they know quality when they see it. Kit arrived to me on Monday afternoon, dropped the car at the shop on Monday eavning and they started work on it Tuesday morning, so far loving the progress of it, last i checked they already installed the SC blower and its coming along perfectly. managed to Snap a few pics here and there, but will have more detailed pics and write up when the install is done as the guys at the shop are taking pics and documenting everything. Also decided to go with the blitz touch brain, this is an exellent option for those who want to have all the readings without having to mount any gauges, plus to me it has more options as self diagnosis and history mapping. Also ordered was the Aquamist HSF-3 methanol kit. I can't wait for this set up, the pics that i have uploaded were taken last week, there has been a lot of progress since then, we are looking at the car to be up and running by the end of the week if all goes well, wish me the best of luck guys.

ANMVQ 07-14-2012 12:14 PM

Nice man,, Make sure you custom tune that, In for numbers and progress. Glad you had good luck with Vivid, I have never and good luck with them. :/

zuperman 370 07-14-2012 02:23 PM

Thank you, yes I'm sure to custome tune it once it has been broken in, weird you had bad luck with vivid, they were great with me through out the whole process, next time ask for Dado he will really help A lot

Mr&Mrs 07-14-2012 04:29 PM

Love your build, in for updates! I can also say Vivid has done me well sorry you can not say the same ANMVQ.

KaienZ34 07-14-2012 04:39 PM

I little off topic, but what is the word on the cams?

Red__Zed 07-14-2012 04:50 PM

Awesome! :tup:

zuperman 370 07-14-2012 04:59 PM

Thanx guys cams are still on stand by, even when I found a couple of shops to install them here, once they did a bit of reaserch on the car and the mechanics of it they flat out refused to work with its cams fearing that something will go wrong since they don't have any experience with the 370z, so decided to call it a day and go FI, but u never know might install the cams at a later stage with the sc

GaleForce 07-14-2012 09:40 PM

Awesome build Zuperman!

Fly1 Motorsports 07-15-2012 01:17 AM

This build just gets better and better!!!

zuperman 370 07-15-2012 04:47 AM

thanx you guys can't wait for this build to be over, one more crucial piece coming the beginning of this month, but thats a total surprise will get everyone by surprise loool

docaam 07-15-2012 05:21 AM

Good luck man, waiting for the final results :)

soolman32 07-18-2012 09:26 PM

Nice upgrade! I'm assuming you're putting the Top Secret intake for sale then? Wish you would've gotten the cams on and a dyno before this lol

zuperman 370 07-19-2012 01:54 AM

thank you, yes indeed the T.S intakes have to go unfortunately :( thats the saddest part about going with this build, but already have a potential buyer lined up for it :D yeh i wish that i have gotten the cams on the dyno as well :( but hard to do when shops are refusing to install as they are nervous to screw with the VVEL

soolman32 07-19-2012 05:42 PM

Yeah been following your progress and difficulties in locating a shop to install them. The good thing about having quality parts is you'll always find people to take them over :tup:

Baer383 07-20-2012 10:57 AM

I already have stage 1.5 you will like it plenty of top end power without giving up any on the bottom end.

That's so cool I'm reilly looking forward to this, noticed u have a 7AT how long have you had this kit for, how hard have you been pushing the car with this kit, and how good has the tranny been holding up

Mike@GTM 07-20-2012 12:51 PM

My trans has been doing good I have only had the kit for 4 months and drive it hard I also have a Meth kit on it so it now has 500 rwhp,the one thing I can tell you that no one talks about is when you do the up rev it is really important to get the calculated load @100% at wot to get the line pressure correct.

Man that's my goal around 500whp with meth I got the aquarist hsf3, which kit are you running? And what do you mean about the rpm is that during tuning? Did you track your car with the sc?

No I don't track my car,my Meth kit is by Snow performance, calculated load is what the ECU use to determine load that why you want it at 100% any time you are floored.

soolman32 07-20-2012 09:55 PM

Blue piping is a nice touch. So much Win!

leighspped 07-23-2012 09:04 PM

do you plan on tracking? did you find the hood help with cooling at all?


im thinking about stage 1.5 gtm sc to, and im thinking about maybe do hood and front bumper for better cooling, but im not sure how it would come into play in between groups on the track....

ZKraken22 07-23-2012 10:39 PM

How long has the car been in "Surgery"

Yes I plan to track the car once I finish the transmission upgrade, for the hood I'm all good as I have the vis hood as you can see from my dp and some of my older posts it provides very good cooling as it has 3 big opinings, as for front bumper I have the oem, but if u want a perfect bumper for FI I say you should deff take a look at the carbon signal raptor bumper I am thinking of getting that just for tracking purposes my self.
