now back to the real world.. when we have debates.. we tend to provide proof and then the facts are weighed and a determintation is made. Your claim of 20 vortech motors blow to every 1 stillen motor has still yet to be proven. I showed you 2 blown stillen motors .. not claims i heard.. but actual threads where the owners have posted.. and you have shown me 0 .. thats right 0.. a big fat 0 .. if you want people to believe anything you say in the future you might want to back it up with some form of proof.. just a thought..

you have yet to hear of any stillen SC's blowing motors on a Z? I JUST GAVE YOU HARD EVIDENCE.. CAN YOU NOT READ?

SOLO just dropp it d00d... THe vortech and the stillen S/Cs are both very equally reliable kits...period. The vortech can put more power and the recent problems with the vortech kit has not turn out any blown engines ..just an anoying process to spending more time fixing the issue witch they rectified.... are you happy with your stillen kit... if yes then just enjoy it and drop this senseless arguement and you will stop getting pwnd by doug, cause he is right .... we will all wait 10 years and you will still wont come up with the proof of your arguments

^funny thing is, solo-350z doesnt have a stillen kit or any FI at all on his z. There are so many things solo-350z is wrong about and Ive called him out on these boards before for it. He seems like hed make a good politician. Hes full of chit, keeps expanding his argument (its now vortech failures/blown motors on any car ever made vs stillen sc's on just 350z's.) and doesnt listen to the other side of the argument. He seems to be able to ignore facts and to pass on information that hes heard like its his own.

GTO factory springs are notoriously soft, by the way. A good set of aftermarket springs and poly bushings completely transform the handling characteristics of the car. Weight reduction makes a world of difference too.

I'm not getting involved with the flame war, but why are there so many other people who have a problem with a guy posting a non-Z up here for us to look at? So it's a Z forum... so what? I thought we were car enthusiasts. You like the GTO or you don't... fine, but can't we drop the boys' club mentality?
To the OP, GTOs are not my thing visually (that bloated, side-slab look kills it for me), but I recognize how ludicrously powerful and easy to mod those cars are. And I love the colour-coded interiors of the GTOs. Great car... but I think I liked your E36 more

1st off.. we are talking about Z's... second .. Stillen makes the SuperCharger Kit for the maxima regardless what blower .. its a stillen kit. so if the motor is blown.. which maxima motors never blow off stillen kits.. hardly if any.. it would have been stillen's fault since the manufactured the kit.
you have yet to hear of any stillen SC's blowing motors on a Z? I JUST GAVE YOU HARD EVIDENCE.. CAN YOU NOT READ?

So you rather go by a few posts on here that a few have blown motors with the Stillen, but ignore the few that have happened to Vortech on this forum alone, then so be it.
https://my350z.com/forum/showpost.ph...&postcount=131 Hmm especially that poll..seems we got many more Vortechs and other brands than 1 Stillen. Enough said.

I have seen the facts enough to know which is the best to go with. Especially when Nissan Sport Magazine even told me.
Yes I don't own one on my Z, obviously because they don't have one yet. But I have installed several on other cars, G35's Mustangs, Maximas, etc.
Really? Please provide links on where YOU called me out. lol

I don't think anyone would have a issue with him, if he didn't take a stab at everything regarding the Z vs other cars. The guy has a history of that. Reason why you see many in the 1st page of this thread attacking him.

And for the record, I am a Z owner and I love my car, but I see nothing wrong with critical appraisal, or (gasp!) appreciating other cars on their merits, too.

Let's just all let it go. seriously. This is ridiculous. People make quick assumptions with Porschefan because of his username then when he makes his remarks about either the z or the gtr. I made that mistake with him as well but we took it to the PMs and he's a normal guy just like everyone else. He's not that type of person that agrees with everyone which is a good thing. We don't want anything candy coated on my350z anyways. Opinions are always different. Look how well he is taking all the negative criticism of this whole thread. He's doing quite well.

Doug you of all people know there has and was a SC Vortech kit for the 4th and 5th gen Maximas. lol.
Edit: It just came to me that I see what you are doing now Doug. Wow, are you that much of a idiot? Vortech MAKES the blower, not Stillen. Stillen provides the KIT. It might be a Stillen Kit, but it's a vortech blower and Vortech Accessories.

wow, i read a lot of useless junk to get here. any way i test drove a GTO b4 i bought my Z. everything about the goat felt distant. i mean the steering was horrible(in the fact that it had very little communication to the driver) the handling was beyond bad for a sportscar, my mustangs was better, and yeah when you punched it, it went, went really fast, but i couldnt feel the speed if you know what i mean. i did like they way the interior looked, but the leather seats were a little unconfortable. it wasnt bad, just not great.
