hr's have higher compression than the de's ? if so its going to be tough getting some good hp out of it.... or i can totaly be wrong. like the de's maybe a good tune and engine management then its all set..... btw what engine management is that g37 running?

In theory you are right, but for some reason the tuners think other wise. I know I sure as hell can't wait for a FI set up for my car.
the compression is hardly higher....the internals though are far stronger
dude did u read sharifs hr's disection post... far stronger..... not. there is no way to tell as of yet since there hasnt been a system for this engine yet here in the states. there is no doubt wit good tunes and engine management it would make just as much power as the de's if not more. but the only downfal is that the hr is a 3 year if not 2 year production car before new z in 09 or 10.

You have a solid point there, but who is to say that Nissan wont just throw in the 3.7 in a lighter 370z?
point taken.... maybe they do a 3.8 liter hr that would be even better...
damn i gotta start building my car lol im gonna get eaten by these future z's

For someone who has taken the engine apart, GTM, the internals are much stronger than the previous DE.

not only have I read it, I've seen and viewed the dissembled rotating assembly in front of me...and there is zero doubt that the rotating assembly of an HR is far beefier than any VQ that has come before it. There are significant changes in the block vs all previous generations. There is no way anyone who has seen the various VQ's in disassembled form could not say the HR is the strongest of the bunch so far
