Supercharger orderd and ready to install
 

Stillen Supercharger ordered and being installed by z car garage will keep u all updated on the build. First Northern California supercharged 370z?

Awesome!

There is one being finalized at Beshoff Infiniti.. held up by some warranty work.. but definitely one of the first.. and I believe the first 370Z!

Congrat.
Im sure you are the first supercharged on nor cal
and im the first TT nor cal lol
lets meet up someday maybe next friday?

Realisticaly, what should my budget be if I supercharged the Z and targeted HP is a modest 400? 7spd auto, daily driven.

In for progress

JT/ i say $5000-6000 for kit and extra $1000 for install and little extra parts are optional except oil cooler. That this is must
for me when i was goin for SC. Ill get headers, oil cooler, HFC or testpipe, exhaust, and flywheels and clutch which you dont ever have to think about for your tranny lol
i can say about $10k is fair enough for it

Oh and you will easily pass 400whp with any supercharger
you are looking for about 450hp

Andyz is pretty much spot on the prices. The one thing i did to spoil myself was to get the hks camp II with all the sensors. Basically all of my engine info is related back to me through my navigation than through gauges. Keeps it alot cleaner looking and unfortunately alot more money than a few guages.

For info on the hks campII
HKS USA CAMP2 (more)

will there be pics of the install?

^^ pictures and write up to follow. Ordered everything yesterday work to start at beginning of next week. Hopefully earlier:happydance:

congrats, just wondering how much there charging you for the install?

its 10 - 12 hours of work. most shops charge $100 to $150 an hour. Luckily since this is one of the first installs im getting a special deal. Wish i could elaborate more. Beshoff infiniti wanted like $2700 for install :bowrofl:

Wow! I am so glad I have my own garage! I have probably paid for my tool set three fold now. Post some pics!

No pics or update yet?

delayed a week should start this week.

Cant wait to see your car dude

i cant wait for them to start. Now starting july 12.

parts arrived car goes in tommorow :happydance:

Good luck man

a month later...is this still happening?

Its been installed for two weeks. Still waiting on another tune from stillen. Car keeps getting check engine light and its running too rich. Check the stillen supercharger thread for my progress or lack of progess from stillen still trying to work out the kinks on this kit. I wouldnt recondmend getting the stillen supercharger kit till they figure out how to tune it.
For comparison my dyno with the supercharger kit and stillens advertised power for the 370

Hmm..definitely needs a tune.

congrats man, let me know how it goes I'm planning to super charge my car almost got the cash for it can't wait for your results

SAVE YOUR MONEY! You might want to check the stillen supercharger thread it might sway u towards the GTM kit.

i hear A LOT of problems on stillen supercharger from g35/g37/ and now 370z =[
gtm TT or supercharger..done.

Oh well i had little problems with gtm tt
I like it fairly reliable
Im saying any modification will cause problems soon or later

Could u elaborate on your GTM problems?

wasnt really problems. U pushed really hard in racing it a lot when u should of kept it slow in the beg and made sure everything was good to go. To the point where your car started smoking :shakes head:.

it was not because of my driving habbit,
the oil stucked up in turbo oil line, and pressured up
leaked out to the oil seal
first of all, i dont race much, once in about 1~2week?

any update on supercharger?
i wanna see how this thing can roar lol

Still waiting on stillen. The kit was installed on july 7 and its still not drivable. I think they gave up. Save your money and don't deal with stillen that's my advise they have been nothing short of a joke.

Man.. that fuckin sucks... Hope everything works out..

Did you uninstall it now? Don't see it listed on your mod lists anymore.

Damn that sucks i was really hoping to see it locally, any thoughts on greddys turbo instead ?
