The 370z weighs 400lbs less +or- than the GTR. It's MT and even if it's an open deck you can weld it or sleeve it. I think the 370z is a better choice.

Yes... The 370z is looking better to me right now. Yes it's a modified catch can that was made for me by ASAA Racing here in Houston.

Have you maxed anything out on the motor? Or is there still room for more power?

Wise man

BTW, I'm stealing your coolant overflow idea. The OEM reservoir on the HR is HIDEOUS.

Really? Over the past 4 years we've done so much to your car, its' hard to keep track...haha. Either way, it looks baddass.

I like this idea too...and this one was 100% made in house.

why the sad face... fair that you probably have traction control worries before 550whp even.

note:
I have Toyo R888 305's on back. Even when I was running in the 550-600 whp range I was having serious traction issues in first and second gear, and I would even get wheel spin in third gear when the turbos spooled up

I am thinking about having him do a custom tube manifold for me so I can go for more. 1100whp is not impossible with the right manifold.....Damn I can't keep a secret
If you could have tube mani's fabed to keep your turbos in the same spot, that would be interesting. Pretty sure that would take some serious thought and clearancing though.

Otherwise, you shoulda just started with a SP/SFR kit to begin with as the headers are like 1/2 the kit

Once you get your TC setup, you'll have more car and forget about more HP. Interesting that GTM has a GTM branded Racelogic PNP now..... wonder what kinda markup that has


Since my mani's are off, I am thinking about sending back to Tim and have burns collectors put on them. But cost /performance is tough to gauge on that one

Waaa...waaa.......Who told you GTM has Racelogic???.... Is it the same one that needs high impedance to work... Or should I say... Can only work with ??? Or is it the same one I had???????????


This guy at JTran does some serious work.... I know he could do it....Yes, I would want the turbos to sit in the same spot. I basically have the traction issue solved.

tha dude posted his build from Sam
https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...nd-beyond.html

I'm sure its the one from the British company since its advertised a PNP

"As this project car will be street driven upon completion, lack of traction and usability were not options. Enter the GTM PNP Racelogic Traction Control system. Being that maximum acceleration is achieved by limiting the slip between the tire and the road, the Racelogic TC system works by monitoring the speed of all four wheels using the ABS system or specially fitted sensors. When wheel spin is detected the engine power is reduced, by cutting a single injector pulse or a spark, until grip is resumed. This occurs in a thousandth of a second, and appears to the driver as a slight miss-fire with no loss in acceleration. "

ouch!,

do you or Terry have the contact for the guy selling these from eth shop in the UK?

It still will only work with a high impedance injector. The good news, as we recently hooked up with Injector Dynamics ,and they just released a 2200cc high impedance injector....problem solved.

Are you maxed out on bost with the log manifolds? Any concerns about tubes sagging, or will you not be road racing the car anymore?
