It will be interesting to see if it goes into limp mode like the GReddy turbo Z out of the Import Tuner issue a month ago. You made a wise choice not going with GReddy if it is all oil cooled in a car already seeing problems with oil temps in stock form.

More than on the G35 or GT-R, but less than on the 350Z...much less. Comparable power and reliability, much less cost factor.

Thanks, James. I was never out of the game, just changed players. Took the GT-R out and put the 370Z in. *haha*

It's lowered on Tein Monoflex coilovers and has 265/35 fronts and 305/30 rears.

Thanky! I would love to come visit the great white north, but I think you should head down to ZDayz first!

It's not my daily.

I am interested in finding this out, as well. I've been assured by Sam that this will not be the case using his race oil cooler. We shall see. I'm optimistic.

Did you get rid of the GTR or still playing around with it also?

Very nice. Don't you just love being boosted.
Will we see it in a few weeks at ZDayZ?

GT-R was traded for the Z. Lots of disconnect with the GT-R...and way too pricey to modify with unproven parts.

You will, sir. The car should be back in a week or so...depending on how long it takes transport to pick it up and deliver.

Congrats stormcrow and nice work Sam. When you get this beast back in your hands, would love to hear how it "feels" compared to your 350 build, which was also sick. You are one of the few people that can compare a FI 350, to GTR, to a 370 from the perspective on an enthusiast! Hope to see you at ZdayZ and maybe the airstrip.

Thanks, Raj. I will certainly post up a detailed write-up of the differences between the three. But, I can already say that I love the 370Z a good bit more than my 350Z or GT-R. The 350 was just far too much raw power for the streets. Gobs of torque and zero traction 1-3....and most time 4th. It wasn't really a fun car on the streets. Just too much work.

The GT-R, on the other hand, was too suited for the track. I couldn't push it hard enough on the streets to make it a challenge and the paddle shifters left me with a serious disconnect. So far the 370 feels very solid and better suited for heavy street driving. That's one reason why my power goals this time around were 450-475 wheel.

I will see you at ZDayz...but, not at the airstrip. I don't have that Thursday off.
