What's the different? 300hp? 400? 500?

I don't know about you guys, but I'm making enough power to beat a Honda [lawnmower].

Where'd the OP go?

you can go TT and low boost run 450whp and 400tq and be ok with some tranny cooling upgrade and valve body upgrade. problem is you can go balls deep in the higher gears (5,6,7) at full throttle from what i understand.

so my quoted $20k for TT, stg 4 AT tranny, cooling upgrades made me just say one thing.....GTR lol

Thanks bro. I live in Australia and a 370z brand new costs 68k. A brand new GT-R costs like 190k(yes, 190k without other fees).

So spend 20k to get a stable 7AT TT 370z is still acceptable in this country. But the point is, 20k is enough for to make a stable 7AT TT Z? I afraid I have to pay like 25k or even 30k to get a AT TT 370z. That's too much for me. Although it's acceptable(20k) but still lot of $. So I just want to ask for opinions.

I do wanna try 7AT because my evo9 and dc5r are both manual, I really want to grab a 7AT this time especially many 370 owner said 370z's 7AT is a amazing stuff.

68K for a Z?!?! brand new ones here you can get for like 40k loaded lol

anyways $20k TT kit and highly upgraded transmission for a 7AT should be plenty powerful and stable. there actually is someone who purchased that specific tranny i mentioned recently. they havent added any forced induction just yet but are in the process of it soon. i'm sure once they do it and share results it will become more popular. i'm guessing most people are like me and cant pull the trigger on a $7800 transmission upgrade when no one has really tested its limits or potential yet.

i'm guessing it should be able to hold up to a stage 2 TT kit but like i said no one has really put it through its paces yet.

also as for you're interest in buying a 7AT Z i'd say go for it. i have driven many 6MT Z's prior to me buying mine but the first time i drove the 7AT version i was sold.

Start here to give you some ideas:
GTM Motorsports*::*AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION*::*GTM Stage 3 Transmission Upgrade

You might want to switch to a heavy duty flex plate since some owners experienced cracking.

FP, did you feel a difference in power after the N/A mods were done? Butt dyno-wise

oh for sure. gotta think i'm up like 50rwhp from stock. i did not base dyno mine but going off of most i've seen the avg is around 275rwhp stock. i'm up to 324rwhp for now.

i have seen Z's base dyno high at like 285 and some under 270 so i feel safe in saying 275 is avg.

FP, I would've been so happy with 275whp.

I dyno'd at 256/222 with my 7AT. So thats +68whp gained with your mods.

LOL... dem gainz.

juses christ you were that low? sorry to hear that bro then again i have no clue what mine was nor do i want to take all my parts off, dyno, then reinstall. i've gone too far.

with my parts all on i "base" dyno'd at 309rwhp/250rwtq before they started my tune. so my tune gains were 15rwhp/8rwtq

That seems quite low, did you dyno on a Mustang? from those numbers it looks like, but hell it still seems low ...

I baselined 290 on a Dynojet with my 2013.

NickTurnon · 07-24-2013, 05:48 PM

It wasn't a mustang dyno - Dyna-com was the brand I think...

Anyways, we didnt use a fan. Car was really hot and heatsoaked. It was 104 when we did the testing. I dont know.

I know it was low, but I also baby the car and didn't reset the ecu before the dyno testing... so maybe if i reset the ecu, drove her hard, and then dyno'd, the number would be higher.

290whp is great though!
