Nissan 370Z Forum  

Could it really be?

Does anyone feel that the 3.0 TT will be inherently less reliable than the VQ37VHR? (Turbo vs N/A).

Have they been having problems with it? It's been in production for 4-5 years now

I would hope a new modern production engine lasts 4-5 years. I am curious if these will last 10-15 years easily like VQ engines.

I’ve been mulling over Topgunz a/a supercharger kit and keep asking myself the same question. It just seems like asking a lot of something that wasn’t designed for FI.

I’m thinking of buying a beater and mess with that instead of my DD.

I just realized I totally misread your post. I think the 3.0 will be fine.

Not any less reliable than the 3.8 TT in the GTR
