GTM what a joke. Nice you have a kit going for the 370 but when you have 5 people or more asking you ABOUT A HR verision...Is it so hard to reply on a status even if you guys are not proceeding on doing anything else with the HR motor.

^^^^ patience is a virtue bro.

GTM has a lot of stuff on their hands. Let 'em work.
In return, as they always do, they will produce miracles.

Shoots bro!

Once we are done with the 370z and the g37 kits, we will attempt the fit the kit on the 350z hr so we are going for it .

Keep in mind that the 350Zhr chassis is completely different from the 370Z and the G37even the timing cover is different.

This is not an easy system to develop so patience is a must

I hope ya'll come out with one for the 07 / 08 HR ..

by the time that happens I should have mine payed off (or close to it)


I also like where that supercharger is .. shouldn't be hard to make it a "sleeper" .. only notice different intake piping from above


anyone know if that type blower will be loud or not? .. will it be silent or like a kenne bell

also, any psi / power estimates ?

It's understandable that the VQ35HR didn't get as much aftermarket support as the DE as it's only a 2 year model engine, but a supercharger kit would be a nice little niche for you guys. No one else produces one (not that I'd want you to but you can even jack the price up, it's your own monopoly). But yeh I know it costs a lot of money in development, and you have to do it right and all though.

VERY interesting....
Though this does look like it will be VERY difficult for your average Joe to put in the 370.

I am curious to see what the gains are though

Looks impressive those power numbers if achieved would also be very impressive.

Good work Sam. Looks sick, and it looks like it will work on an VQ35HR Z.

How are you routing the intake? It looks like the Rotrex compressor inlet is right up against the engine mount.
