Since i've got a couple of hrs before the germany vs australia match i decided to do a journal of my 370z. It started out as a company call so i decided to buy a 7spd for the long drives during peak hour, but as the months went by decided to go fi, now some 6months later the build is almost complete thanks to sam@gtm and uprev in some way or another. the build has taken way to long due to varis issuse that i rather not discuss in a public forum, but with that said please enjoy, the 1st RHD TT 370z on a 7spd (that i've seen of), currently is at a very safe tune of 300kw@6psi, current rebuilding the intake as the wrong intake pipes were sent to me by sam and some more fine tuning should be able to see it on the next week

Might be worthwhile doing one in Member's Rides at zclub.

I'm sure the guys there will appreciate it immensely!

fairladyZ34 06-13-2010 09:05 PM

thats straight dirty bro! how does the auto hold up to the increase in power?

Z1 TT'ed one of their 7AT 370's awhile back:

Glad to see its possible to do this with the 7AT! Looks great! Love the look of the hood on the white Z, too!

tao168 06-13-2010 10:06 PM

I'm really egared to get it back and see how the transmission holds
Yeah I really like the hood but sadly it has been taken off, our cops don't like it lol

Boost_lee 06-14-2010 12:20 AM

very nice

what BOV are you running? Sounds like a bit of compressor surge at the end of the run

k20z3 06-14-2010 12:41 AM

Great car nice results.

Is it me, or is your lip like a stop lighter than the rest of the car?

tao168 06-14-2010 01:22 AM

Yeah is a surge that run was the 1st run doing some.fine tuning this week, and hopefully up the boost aswell

Your the 1st person to notice the lip man, looks weird yeah, cause in aus theresa no s tune I had to import it in from the states but didn't realise that the pearl white you guys have is a different colour from ours

hmmmm

Once i have the money and am old enough for insurance not to eat my wallet, i will be twin turboing/supercharging my beast. Was worried about the Auto though so keep us updated hey! Let me know how it performs. Looks sexy as mate.

U sold the hood yet? I hate cops in aus. Lost my license till July thanks to little stupid fines, they just follow me around my neighbourhood!

jaze55 06-14-2010 05:20 AM

Great to see people already modifying the Z. You must be stoked with the result and as im guessing there is more in it after you fix some other issues.

I plan not to mod my car besides a catback exhaust. But looking at threads like this makes me get the modifiers itch again. I hope not to go crazy like i did with my evo.

Congrats on the car, kinda curious about the story of it, but you said you didnt want to discuss. Looks nice.

i'll love to tell all, but dont want to start a flame war, but i was 1 of the 1st customers of gtm for the tt kit (i paid them somewhere around 09/09), yet my car is still not ready, only recently we were given the correct licesnes to tune :shakes head:, although, it was partly since my car is a RHD instead of a LHD, but you kinda get the flow. and we'll just leav it here as sam did offer support at the end =)

*edit* not including the 3months it took them to ship so a total of 10months on the build
