GTM fully built 7 AT
 

GTM has the shipped the tranny. Should be here some time next week.
hopefully i can get it installed and the drag strip will still be open, Its getting cold up here in Canada and the snow is coming soon.
once i do this the build will start on the stage 2.
Once Sam ships me the stage 3 SC it will be going on the built over bore 20 * block with meth and the Jun Cams in the block. 15 lbs boost = ???? rwhp.
It should go 12.20 all moter on 304 rwhp that i have. now add another 250+ to the wheels and i see low 11.0 or 10.9s.
For all you guys who put the Z down for saying he was going to give a GTR:owned: a run for its life at the drag strip just wait and see.

Awesome, I'm looking forward to the results of your install. Hopefully you can make it to the drag strip before any snow falls. GTM just finished up my stage 1.5 SC install about three weeks ago, and I am very satisfied. I can only imagine what type of neck snapping shifts your new trans will be capable of!

I'm interested in finding out who you got to build your motor.

Awesome and good luck reaching your goals.

I'm not sure why you're talking **** about GTR's. Intake, exhaust, and a Flash and they are going 10's. No real compromise between that and your car per say, which needs a built motor, built trans, and a SC to do the same. Don't ever hate on someone who can afford a GTR and buy said GTR over a Z. I know I would if I could.

Why SC instead of TT with ur built motor and tranny?

:iagree: If you have the funds do do the stage 3 S/C why wouldn't you guys go with the stage 3 or stage 4 gtm tt kit?

I respect what your doing with the engine. I am shipping my cylinder heads tomorrow to Gtm for a 5 angle valve job and new valve springs and retainers and have my jun cams installed. I am sticking to NA I just can't do the F.I setup like everyone else. I should have my heads back on the car in about two to three weeks I will let you know how the cams feel

I ran my best run in the low 40's. Get that baby installed and hustle to the strip before it closes!

Tens? Ummmmm. It sure is easy to speculate. Unless that baby is popping 1.6" 60's, low elevens are going to be a carrot dangling, even with 250 more HP.

BTDT.

It is always nice to have a dream... Since you first made that statement, Nissan improved the GT-R to come standard with 2 unicorns. It is going to be hard to beat.

Interested to see the results.

And I agree with MMC. No one ever doubted you could give a stock GT-R a good run (especially the GT-R spec back when you started with your car), but it was always kind of a moot point... heavily modded 370 vs. a stock GT-R. What happens when the GT-R is tuned? :p

I agree it will but i have all the toys for the 1/4 mile on my car.
Im cutting 1.80 60fts (best one yet ) with only 304 rwhp.
I may not beat a 2013 gtr but it will be a drivers a race.
2011 and lower should be a really good race.
with me in it it weighs 3340 I have a good weight advantagae on him as well .
And i will be fine tuning my GTM traction control unit as well.
Im worried about the axles as well.
But before this happens i have to run the built tranny as see how much it gives me as my first 3 gear changes are between .31 , .35 and .39 of a second the bad one is 4th to 5th it takes .61 of a second . This is with the stock transmision. It shifts this quick because of the rev matching and the 4.08 gears. Once the ecu learn it shift really quick witht the paddles.
With the builtVB . extra cluch packs Sam had told me that the built unit shifts way faster and harder than the stock one
As well he has improved the 4th to 5 shift. If it goes own to .42 from .62 like i have now thats 2 tenths and that would put at 12.22's .Plus the improvemnet in the other shifts, 12.1's should be possible. Time will tell. Sam has told me that there is not need to use the uprev to increase the line preasure as the VB does it all.
It would be nice to beat J nauts 1/4 mile time for the quickist all moter 370 z.

2013 gtr running 10.8 to 10.9 1/4 mile times is well tuned from the factory.
Thats insanly quick.
And my buddies who have the camaros, mustangs and corvett's. Next year is going to be a lot of fun at the track.

2 tenths faster shift doesn't immediatly mean you go down the 1/4 mile .2 seconds faster, especially not for a shift so late in the 1/4 like the 4-5 shift.

Interested to see how this turns out as it apparently keeps getting a little bigger and more exciting every few months with a new thread. :rofl2:

Have you caged your car yet? I can't remember.

Steve, so you got those cams installed/?

Wow -- good luck! :tup:

Very cool to see some 7 AT getting some love!

Props!

This should be interesting. Good luck with it. My only concern would be traction. Rwd vs gtr awd

you should already be beating most of the camaros and stangs with your 1/4 time now. i took down a 2011 SS camaro mid summer at the drag strip in my Z and that run i only ran a 13.35 :bowrofl:

Went to the track today a new low record for an all moter 7 AT.
12.343 @ 114.14
The GTM tranny will be here tuesday and it will be in the car by friday. the track will be open next week.
Can not wait to see what it will run,

7 AT being installed today.
A few set backs. No big deal just will take time to work it out
it has to have be married to the ecu. (have to remove my Cobb from the car)
car ecu set back to stock ( drove the car to the dealer ) it sucked with the factory setting in it.
tranney will be mated to the car by nissan consult 3.
I then need to put in the GTM tranney flash for the VB ( uprev ). GTM
And then brake in it for a few 100 km's
the bad news is that i lost my own custom cobb tune for the car.
Sam will be sending me a tune for my car so that i can run it.
I wouid like to reinstall the cobb back in the car with my tune but not sure what will happen with the tranney flash from uprev.
I had them both hooked into my car before i changed the tranney.
May not make it to the track on sunday.
Z

doesnt seem like any big set backs just tune changes. hope it all goes well for you and i'm interested to see how it performs.

Nissan dealership just called me and told me that my car is ready. They road tested the car and told me that it is night and day difference from when they put the converter in 2 weeks ago.
They called it a missle on wheels.
just wait till tune it and put the GTM flash in the tranney/
Im picking it up tommorow morning,

Z

Go get it now!!!!!:tup:

Z eliminator let me know how the car feels. My cylinder heads are currently receiving new valve train, valves, five angle valve job and having the JUN cams installed. After this I am doing the transmission. I will let you know how it is when I get the heads back from GTM. I think these combinations are going to be so sick.

Nice! Very curious to learn more. Can you datalog gear change speed with new setup?

Not sure he was talking **** so much as showing respect for the GT-R. Probably doing so for the same reason guys like me built the crap out of small blocks roaming the street for unsuspecting big block cars. Entry level costs, challenge of the build etc. besides the GTR being turbo from the factory (as well as AWD) and similar displacement, WHY NOT? I believe if he were really talking smack, he'd be aiming for other brands. Finally, to your point, with all the 1200-1500hp GTRs, Lambos, Ferarris etc, why even bother? Just buy a PRIUS and stay in the granny lane.
Not starting a scuffle, just pointing out whats obvious to me.
guess this guy should stay home and watch the boobtube?

Got the GTM flash in the car and a new fuel map.
Shifts way faster than the stock 7 AT,
did some data logging but the shift times seemed to quick for 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd.
Need to test it a little more, trouble is the track is closed till next year and its hard to find a place to test the car.with out geting a ticket of be charged for stunt driving.
I also have to find a place to secure the lab top as it went flying when i tested the car .
i tried the 4th to 5th shift , way better.
The more rpms you shift at the faster it shifts.
Im very impressed with the MM for shifting with the paddles/
The only question now is do i run N/A for i day next year or do i put the GTM stage 2 SC in over the winter. It would be nice to see what the car would run N/A. 12.1's easy.

Z

Maximize track time. Waiting to get 1 NA run to only take the car down for the supercharger install is silly.

It would be nice to see what she can do as N/A :tup:

If you do the install you/we will never know what it was capable of doing :excited:

Either way Congrats on your awesome build it is nice to see the potential for the 7AT!

Either way, I want to sit in the passenger seat to feel this thing snap. :tup:
