Just posting updates 
Finally got around to getting my 07 5AT 370gt Coupe tuned at East coast customs.

My only performance mods are Cold air intake (z1) and a Twin x Pipe cat back Exhaust.

My car was tuned with 167kms on the clock and made great power imo

In the end i made 218rwkw with 325nm of torque.

Super happy with the work carried out and Quite happy with the power that managed to come through the 5AT. 
I wasnt risking an e-tune to get over the 300hp mark etc

So how do you tune a VQ37? Do you have piggy back devices, an aftermarket ECU or is there a replacement tune-able chip in your ECU?

Uprev tuned my friend. Stock ecu is tunable :)

I thought the 370GT was already rated at 325 hp.

Guess I should get mine checked out sometime to see what it does put out.

 

it is but not at the wheels. The 325HP is at the fly.

now i've gone from 325 at the crank to around 355 and the cars alot more responsive.

 

Edit - Keep in mind the cars 12 years old. Its 325 at the crank wasnt that accurate anymore. Dyno'd in at 316 to the crank.

Ok.  I am considering doing something with mine... traded in a 300ZX TT for it, which was around 340 hp at the wheel (I still shed a tear when I see a nice Z go by, but both myself and the Fairlady were getting old)  anyways, the VQ37 is quite impressive, but I wouldn't mind a little more torque starting off, probably not going so far as to start looking at turbo/supercharger options.

    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
    • Appreciate everything guys. I did go ahead and get an alignment... most of my complains are solved. Car is not perfect, but it's good enough. If I notice uneven tire wear or anything I'll just take everything back to stock.  Thanks again!
    • They still have not shipped the 550cc injectors as they weren't in stock, so in theory I could ask to get the 440cc ones instead, if those work better in my scenario. They're the same price so really shouldn't be an issue. Unfortunately I am not so knowledgeable in most parts of tuning so I wasn't sure what's best to choose between the two. 440cc ones are the lowest they have (not in stock, but available to buy nonetheless).
