Make a video on the drivability, how much of a better driver do you have to be? Or do a quarter mile run or just show it off on a montage video running down a mountain....
For parts only I think the amount is high. For me, I went with an older 90's chassis (A31 Cefiro) and I'm at $23k including the chassis, parts, and labor and should be at 750whp when done.
It was a lot of money to build the car the way you wanted it. Is it stupid? If you are planing on keeping this car for a long time, I would say NO. You now have a totally different type of Z now. A car that will make all mustang, camaro, maybe the new C8 vette owners cry, lol
I don't care how much money I have to spend on a car if I want it. It doesn't matter to me about money, it's about what I want. So, of course, I'd spend that and much more.
Was looking to buy a 370z stock and thankfully I just got accepted an offer of 15k for one which is 2019, and I am going ahead and purchasing that as my first car in 3 days. I honestly cannot believe I'll be driving a 370z in 3 days. Your video definitely helped me to get an idea on a fully modded 370z, I'll get there gradually. Appreciate this video a lot G.
Just subscribed! A couple weeks ago I bought a 2016 370z Nismo and your channel has definitely taught me a few things, because I'm new to the car scene. My first addons will be the exhaust and some test pipes. Keep up the quality videos homie! I will be watching 😊
@@ShayHarambe yup, I wish my lightning wasn't so expensive to build one day I want to go balls to the wall and try to fit the twin turbo kit that goes on the terminators that works with the supercharger
I was watching shewantsthezz cost breakdown and in reality it doesn’t need to be upwards of 22k. It all depends whether you plan on buying a kit or have a shop that can help you do the work. I think shewantsthezz said he was around 8.5k after buying most of the parts himself and have a shop do the fabrication. I would love to one day boost my Z but not too ecstatic about a 20k price tag lol. So for anyone out there there’s other options and routes to take. But nonetheless this was still a very good and informative video!
So I didnt watch his video fully but I know his build video he didn't include everything like I did. He did just the turbo kit. I included full suspension, full supporting mods, and other things here and there. But if I made a video like him then yeah just my turbo kit alone cost 9k something. Not much more than his and mine has more potential.
Ahhhh okay makes sense... not sure what work he had done on his suspension wise since I know he has the nismo. But I know he didn’t throw on a few supporting mods to the overall price. Hopefully one day I’ll have my Z at the 500+ hp mark.
Ohh good question. I would say the switchback kit still. Or boosted performance kit. I made 580 something on 93. I'm not a 350 obviously but just for reference. Ultimatly comes down to where do you want the turbo. And piping size. Bp kit just from watching fresh kicks i believe he has 2 inch piping or 2.5 where as switchback is full 3 inch. So eventually your gonna be restricted. I would go switchback.
22030 is for the mods. He says he could of gotten a GTR but let’s say you get a $10000 370 plus 22k mods. That’s $32000 for a damn near super car. I’m going to do this lol
Yeah that part idk if people understood. The price of the z plus the 22000 I could have bought a used older gtr. You can find a gtr for like 45k. But yeah find a cheap 370z plus all those mods and the weight of the z its the way to go. A lot of dudes are actually running high 600s and low 700s. I just don't wanna blow it till i got money to build it. To mod a gtr though im sure is big money. On top of the 45 to 50k car. But 600 to 700 on stock block on a z. Then Adam lz upgraded the bottom end of his engine and i think he's making 900 on his 370z. To build the bottom end is 2k for rods and pistons. Idk that's how I look at it. Price of car plus mods whats the best car/ route or power to weight ratio. Obviously other things come into play too. To me a 370z is the perfect route to build a racecar :)
I ask myself that question everyday do I get like a 2010-2012 camaro for like 20-25k and build it up to my liking which would prob cost another 20-25k and have it custom made to my exact liking or do I get like a c7 vet for the same price and eventually build on it the way I like lol I personally think I’d go camaro just cause down the line I think it’ll be a better show car on day
There you go! I personally love going with cheaper cars building them to be wayyyy faster than people who spend big money on cars that think they are fast from factory. Just something about people going what?????? Your 20k car beat my 60k car? 🙃
How's the clutch? One of my fears is building my 07 350z and ruining the driveability of my car. I LOVE my car. I want my car now, but a little stiffer bushings, less body roll, and two or three times the power with a wing and a diffuser so the ass doesn't step out so quickly. My car has about a hundred thousand miles so I've been thinking just coils, brakes, wheels, tires, and build the motor and twin turbo it...But I'm afraid of having a clutch "button" if you know what I mean. I don't want it to be on or off (I have never driven a turbo Z, where in Florida??? Near SRQ??) I see you didn't wrap the exhaust, I wrapped mine and it makes a noticeable difference. You took the thermostat out completely? 🤔 Do you drive it in the winter? Maybe I should too. My car overheats on hot days kinda quick even with a thicker Koyo rad, but it might be the lack of a cold air intake, it's pulling air from the engine bay. Do you still feel like it's the same car, but faster or do you feel it is so much different that it feels like a completely different car? I'd love to know for myself prior to dropping $20-30k.
Sheesh lots of stuff going on here. My exhaust is heat wrapped. Only the down pipe and up pipe to the turbo though. Uhhh right now on stage 3 southbend clutch it is driving just like stock. Now at this moment I am upgrading to a 6 puck clutch so that will be aggressive. Very on off. That will be my next video btw. Thermostat is still in and yeah i drive in the winter. We don't get any snow so not worried about it. Best thing I can say is tires and suspension make a world of a difference. I dont really have any intentions of upgrading my radiator at the moment.

Videos are getting much better!! Always a quality build. Personally I’d like and I know others would like a reactions video to people seeing your turbo stuffed in your Z. Like place a go-pro on your dash and let it film peoples reaction at cars and coffee. Also some “race” videos of you trolling people on the highway.
Thanks for sharing man. I saw you somewhere on IG but I forgot where. But yea man I've dropped 11 to $12k into my Z and I'm not even turbo'd. I'm surprised you haven't gotten spacers for your wheels at least...
Ah yea, admin. That's where I saw you BTW I wanna get a South Bend flywheel, the 12 lb one. If you know where I can find a 12 lb flywheel hit me up man.
No sir. I got front window tinted too. Front window alone anywhere you go is 100 cause it has to be ceramic. Plus all my windows are ceramic 15%. Sounds like wherever you went you got crappy tint.
22k sounds like a lot but considering donut media's low Z costs close to that and did upgrades on the entire car using ass cheap parts, 22k is economical as fuck, cant wait to get my Z and do something similar, i only want 500 at the crank
@@ShayHarambe yeah, you have to make a lot of $ to swap cars that often. for me, I only have 30k miles on mine so it's going to last way longer than anyone would have ever expected.
nice! i have a 2020 STI FBO/E85. Gotta go built block to be able to catch up to you! I love these cars. been thinking of getting one to build. looks like a super fun car! what part of florida are you in? im in venice right now looking for other car guys!
Ohhhh I know a lot about that platform! Just sucks how they dont handle a whole lot of power stock block. Which dont get me wrong they hold quite a bit but going to a built block its so pricy for a ej. Its crazy.
@@ShayHarambe yea dude! im on a conservative 380whp tune. didnt wanna blow up my stock block! really think of getting a 370 or maybe even see how the 400z is gonna be!
I heard they are ehh. Need the flex plate but then after that they handle more power but you gotta build it still. But I could be wrong idk. But flex plate is needed.
Thanks man! I was glad to find your channel because it seems like there isn't very many 370 specific channels around. Hope you get your car sorted easy enough!
@Andrew Baker yeah man! Seems like most 370 channels out there are click bait or just pointless videos. I wanna to put out quality content on useful stuff even if it means very few videos.
To build your content up you could dive into specifics on small parts like your flex fuel, oil catch etc. Just an idea man, lookin forward to what you put out!
Would drop that 22k ALL DAY on that build, props that car is exactly what I would do if I owned a 370. I would love to have it if you ever wanna get rid of it. Noe big question why didn't you build the block? Is it actually safe to run over 600 on stock rods n pistons?
Lol cause I kinda ran out of money on the build at the moment. But yes 600 Is safe on stock block. 700 is where things get iffy. At least that is what the tuner says.
@@ShayHarambe lol watched your video twice forgetting i commented and said both times I'd drop that kind of money all day and im by no means rich. Empty my bank account now and finance the car and I could go there but just barely. Ive been looking at a 2015+ gt stang or a 370. I cant find the 370 around me tho it sucks. Test drove 1 and it was a soft top so I was out.
@@ShayHarambe I know. I was part of the engineering process with Hendo😉. I'm the tuner he was bouncing ideas off with. So glad you went that route. ❤️ It sounds so sick
Hey brother! I love the build and no its 100% worth it :) I wanted to build a twin turbo 370z...do you have any kit recommendations 600whp+ ? Also what were the labor costs and how long did it take you to build this from start.
Hey! Thank you! Uhh if you wanna go twin turbo I would recommend the Fast Intentions Kit. The quality of there products are crazy. But you don't really need a twin turbo. The turbo kit im running spools like a twin turbo kit. Then boosted performance kit is a twim scroll turbo so also spools real fast. There was no labor cost. Switchback racing was doing a deal to install the kit with no labor price. The whole thing from start to finish was probably 6 months or so.
@@ShayHarambe yeah I saw how many single turbo kits are insane for the 370s...I always thought of replicating the GTR with the twins and love the thought of having twins haha. Ill definitely checkout the FI kit. I wonder how much they would be to fully install -__-
@@arvindsaxena8307 so admintuning just tuned a 370z running tbe gtr twin turbo set up. And he said it was cool and all but not worth it. Fast Intentions makes a killer turbo set up and i was stuck on getting there kit for a long time but I didn't like how just to install it you gotta remove the engine. I wanted something a little more easy to work on.
@@ShayHarambe oh I saw that!! Are you referring to nismo frank? Ive worked with admintuning before for my NA 370z but I totaled it :( looking towards building a Nismo 370z now. Btw I really appreciate you reaching out back to me! Definitely will take your advice and do more research man. Btw on WOT does your car slip? I thought 295 wouldnt be enough for the meat on the back with close to 750hp
@@arvindsaxena8307 yeah man! I'm all about trying to help! I have 0 problems with these. I as well as you thought 295 wouldn't be fat enough. But with the r888r tire when they are warm I have no problems. 10/10 recommended. Downside they suck in the rain.
I've been looking at a car to get into building with, I've been looking at the 350 and 370zs and I think that's the car I'm going to go with turbo it the works but I was wondering, in your opinion, is there a better car for a beginner build? Not looking for a carb car either i want to mess with fuel injection
In my opinion any car could be a beginner car. Just do a bunch of research and learn how everything works together. The only bad part I see with the 350 or 370 is its exspensive to mod. More than other cars I've owned maybe except a subaru.
Such an insanely good deal from Switchback... Cant believe he offers free install, if I wasn't 1000mi away from FL i definitely would have hopped on this. Was the CJM return fuel system installed for free as well?
Yeah for sure. A free install on a kit like this with all the labor on welding and install. Crazyyyyy good deal. The entire fuel system with pump and top hat install was $100. With a lot of stuff around the enginr coming out it is super easy to install all those lines and stuff.
Unless its a corvette you dont put miles on...then any other "performance" type vehicle will exponentially depreciate and supply and demand is a niche market for performance vehicles because you know people raised the hp to beat the fuck out of it. Then you add mods on top of the exponentially depreciating asset you lose 50% + into the mods invested not including the loss of original cost of the vehicle not including all the time taking modifying the vehicle if you did the work or not.....So essentially modifying a car you better just keep it for life or plan on losing your ass on depreciation if you can find someone that wants it.
I did a lot of it myself. The turbo kit however was installed by the shop that makes the kit. They where doing a deal for free install of the kit. I paid no money in labor on this build.
Have to understand if your a builder/project person no matter the car you will upgrade something just remember a 30k-45k car upgrades will rang from $500-20k but a car thats 55k-100k your looking at 1k-50k for upgrades. So turning a 20k car into a 40k in total price is not that bad for what you want but then buy at 60-80k car then just get a rear diffuser for 2k 🤷🏾♂️. It's about what you can afford one... then what you consider fun to get modified
Couldn't tell you. As far as I can tell the same when normal driving. You don't get on it at low rpm with a bigger turbo. You can bog the engine and turbo. Basically didnt give the turbo enough time to spool.
@@ShayHarambe Thanks for the quick response. I was just concerned with the response/feedback with the acceleration/torque for normal street driving due to a turbo add in. Since turbos are for higher rpm anyway, does the response time and torque down low get affected I guess.
Gtr is pricier than this car plus the build. And you can always hear the horsepower come out thats whats most important to me and as far as drifting goes i like the style of the 370z. super nice build hopefully down the line i can boost my nismo as well :)
Hi, please do you have blow through MAF setup or draw through? I am currently also doing a build of my 350z, but can't decide between blow through vs draw through... Both ways are having some pros and cons...
Shoot now it’s not. Back before covid I was touching GTR cost. They are bad af but I hear they arnt worth it. Dumb heavy feels like a boat, expensive to buy, parts are stupid expensive, maintenance is absurd and anything I think over 600 tq the trans has to be built which is 10k. Your looking at 150k car plus by the time you make decent power.
I would do it. Your gonna spend 40 grand on a used hellcat and your z would beat it. I'm actually doing this right now though with a g35. Also have a nice 06 bmw m5 that'd built. Where ya live. Maybe I could rub ya with my 06 bmw m5. It's the same whp.
Stock block can hold 700 wheel. But at 700 it starts pushing it. G37 same block. You can do it. Its all in tuner and supporting mods though. Don't cheap out and take short cuts.
Yeah ive heard thats a solid kit. I do have a video with admin. I've been having small problems through out my build so haven't got to shoot as much video as I've wanted. And ordering parts has been a hassle with the corona.
Unfortunately you just made your car super unreliable. When N/A car's are boosted you normally run into all kinds of problems and constantly drain your wallet... FOREVER!!!
@@emes4679 I sold the z like 2 years ago 😅 I sold it to the owners of switchback racing who made the turbo kit. As far as I know they haven’t had any problems.
@@emes4679 I posted a video 3 months ago. I got a new Supra. It didn’t seem to go anywhere view wise so I didn’t make anymore. I have done a lot to the Supra sense then.
@@davothegreat9990 yeah makes sense. I know you can tell them its modified and I believe you pay 10 percent of what you've put into it on top of insurance. My buddy just went through that. This was a while back so I could be wrong.
Cool car. For the price though, it's one thing if you already have a 370 and just want more, but if looking for a car that you want to tinker with from scratch, I'd probably lean towards a 335 and do bolt ons for a similar result, but 370s are in my opinion are good looking cars and I like the fact yours has the stock body. All I'd do is wheels on one of those cosmetically

just make racing videos

I've noticed. I see no reason to hide it.
Cuz it's embarrassing
DuncanL7979 How?
Because it is expensive as crap. High HP build of 900hp, 70k.

Videos are getting much better!! Always a quality build. Personally I’d like and I know others would like a reactions video to people seeing your turbo stuffed in your Z. Like place a go-pro on your dash and let it film peoples reaction at cars and coffee. Also some “race” videos of you trolling people on the highway.
I didnt even think about that. The few times I have showed it off people are so shocked.
BoostedVQ yeah man just leave the hood open and let the go-pro run. You will get an honest opinion of what people think about your car
That does sound cool. Next car show it happening.
Thanks for sharing man. I saw you somewhere on IG but I forgot where. But yea man I've dropped 11 to $12k into my Z and I'm not even turbo'd. I'm surprised you haven't gotten spacers for your wheels at least...
Ah yea, admin. That's where I saw you
BTW I wanna get a South Bend flywheel, the 12 lb one. If you know where I can find a 12 lb flywheel hit me up man.
@@Lofi.z34 yeah admin posted my dyno stuff. I've thought about spacers but just haven't done it. I bought my set up through zspeed.
@@ShayHarambe Thank you 🔥
Fucking sick dude keep it up. Saving all my pennies for a twin hopefully soon 👍🏽
Twins would be nasty. That top mount kit I think royalty made?? Sheesh.
I want to supercharge my 1999 Nissan maxima, I just need help on researching what is the best kit for my car
Supercharge/ turbo the world my dude
Amazing build.
Thank you
$300 for a window tint. Sounds like you got screwed
No sir. I got front window tinted too. Front window alone anywhere you go is 100 cause it has to be ceramic. Plus all my windows are ceramic 15%. Sounds like wherever you went you got crappy tint.
22k sounds like a lot but considering donut media's low Z costs close to that and did upgrades on the entire car using ass cheap parts, 22k is economical as fuck, cant wait to get my Z and do something similar, i only want 500 at the crank
I have a Mustang and I like turbo charged 350 & 370Z cars, awesome.
Heck yeah! I ust to have a mustang. I love mustangs. 14 5.0 Oxford white 6 speed :)
@@ShayHarambe yeah, you have to make a lot of $ to swap cars that often. for me, I only have 30k miles on mine so it's going to last way longer than anyone would have ever expected.
nice! i have a 2020 STI FBO/E85. Gotta go built block to be able to catch up to you! I love these cars. been thinking of getting one to build. looks like a super fun car! what part of florida are you in? im in venice right now looking for other car guys!
Ohhhh I know a lot about that platform! Just sucks how they dont handle a whole lot of power stock block. Which dont get me wrong they hold quite a bit but going to a built block its so pricy for a ej. Its crazy.
@@ShayHarambe yea dude! im on a conservative 380whp tune. didnt wanna blow up my stock block! really think of getting a 370 or maybe even see how the 400z is gonna be!
I actually sold my 2018 subi for the z lol. I was making 363 wheel. That car just cost so much to make little power.
@@ShayHarambe thats nice man! i have a baby boy so i need the sedan haha. but maybe ill splurge and buy a z! check your dm's on instagram.
Have you heard anything in regards to 7AT ability to handle high WHP? May need to budget for it.
I heard they are ehh. Need the flex plate but then after that they handle more power but you gotta build it still. But I could be wrong idk. But flex plate is needed.
Keep vids coming man!! Bought my sport touring in March and your video are great 👍
Yeah once I get it back the videos will continue. Currently they are fixing that small oil leak i had mentioned a few videos ago.
And congrats on buying a z!
Thanks man! I was glad to find your channel because it seems like there isn't very many 370 specific channels around. Hope you get your car sorted easy enough!
@Andrew Baker yeah man! Seems like most 370 channels out there are click bait or just pointless videos. I wanna to put out quality content on useful stuff even if it means very few videos.
To build your content up you could dive into specifics on small parts like your flex fuel, oil catch etc. Just an idea man, lookin forward to what you put out!
I’m a huge fan of the GTR but I want to boost my Z so bad, it will be a more visceral experience
gtr is over rated. imagine getting spanked by a z? lol
How much would the tune have been if you would of just gotten a regular tune on 93 with no flex fuel, mac valve or anything like that?
Well mac solenoid was required to go over wastegate pressure. As well was the 4 bar map sensor. But to tune without e85 was 800.
such a sleeper look :p
Lol for sure! Love it and hate it at the same time lol
Would drop that 22k ALL DAY on that build, props that car is exactly what I would do if I owned a 370. I would love to have it if you ever wanna get rid of it. Noe big question why didn't you build the block? Is it actually safe to run over 600 on stock rods n pistons?
Lol cause I kinda ran out of money on the build at the moment. But yes 600 Is safe on stock block. 700 is where things get iffy. At least that is what the tuner says.
@@ShayHarambe lol watched your video twice forgetting i commented and said both times I'd drop that kind of money all day and im by no means rich. Empty my bank account now and finance the car and I could go there but just barely. Ive been looking at a 2015+ gt stang or a 370. I cant find the 370 around me tho it sucks. Test drove 1 and it was a soft top so I was out.
Open dump waistgate is the only way to go! Good choice!
Should have went that route to begin with. Sounds wayyyyy better.
@@ShayHarambe I know. I was part of the engineering process with Hendo😉. I'm the tuner he was bouncing ideas off with. So glad you went that route. ❤️ It sounds so sick
@@erik_cruz heyyyy!!!! Thats super dope
What it's like to daily drive your z
I dont really daily the z. But I could do like a week or so of daily driving it and show how it is to daily.
Hey brother! I love the build and no its 100% worth it :) I wanted to build a twin turbo 370z...do you have any kit recommendations 600whp+ ? Also what were the labor costs and how long did it take you to build this from start.
Hey! Thank you! Uhh if you wanna go twin turbo I would recommend the Fast Intentions Kit. The quality of there products are crazy. But you don't really need a twin turbo. The turbo kit im running spools like a twin turbo kit. Then boosted performance kit is a twim scroll turbo so also spools real fast. There was no labor cost. Switchback racing was doing a deal to install the kit with no labor price. The whole thing from start to finish was probably 6 months or so.
@@ShayHarambe yeah I saw how many single turbo kits are insane for the 370s...I always thought of replicating the GTR with the twins and love the thought of having twins haha. Ill definitely checkout the FI kit. I wonder how much they would be to fully install -__-
@@arvindsaxena8307 so admintuning just tuned a 370z running tbe gtr twin turbo set up. And he said it was cool and all but not worth it. Fast Intentions makes a killer turbo set up and i was stuck on getting there kit for a long time but I didn't like how just to install it you gotta remove the engine. I wanted something a little more easy to work on.
@@ShayHarambe oh I saw that!! Are you referring to nismo frank? Ive worked with admintuning before for my NA 370z but I totaled it :( looking towards building a Nismo 370z now. Btw I really appreciate you reaching out back to me! Definitely will take your advice and do more research man. Btw on WOT does your car slip? I thought 295 wouldnt be enough for the meat on the back with close to 750hp
@@arvindsaxena8307 yeah man! I'm all about trying to help! I have 0 problems with these. I as well as you thought 295 wouldn't be fat enough. But with the r888r tire when they are warm I have no problems. 10/10 recommended. Downside they suck in the rain.
I've been looking at a car to get into building with, I've been looking at the 350 and 370zs and I think that's the car I'm going to go with turbo it the works but I was wondering, in your opinion, is there a better car for a beginner build? Not looking for a carb car either i want to mess with fuel injection
In my opinion any car could be a beginner car. Just do a bunch of research and learn how everything works together. The only bad part I see with the 350 or 370 is its exspensive to mod. More than other cars I've owned maybe except a subaru.
I didn't think about it that way lol, thanks man I appreciate the perspective
Such an insanely good deal from Switchback... Cant believe he offers free install, if I wasn't 1000mi away from FL i definitely would have hopped on this. Was the CJM return fuel system installed for free as well?
Yeah for sure. A free install on a kit like this with all the labor on welding and install. Crazyyyyy good deal. The entire fuel system with pump and top hat install was $100. With a lot of stuff around the enginr coming out it is super easy to install all those lines and stuff.
Unless its a corvette you dont put miles on...then any other "performance" type vehicle will exponentially depreciate and supply and demand is a niche market for performance vehicles because you know people raised the hp to beat the fuck out of it. Then you add mods on top of the exponentially depreciating asset you lose 50% + into the mods invested not including the loss of original cost of the vehicle not including all the time taking modifying the vehicle if you did the work or not.....So essentially modifying a car you better just keep it for life or plan on losing your ass on depreciation if you can find someone that wants it.
Whew that’s a lot of info my dude. I’ll be honest I didn’t read it all lol
Would you say it would be safe to daily, if I weren’t to push it all the time? I wanna boost and probably keep it at mid 400s
Oh yeah i believe so if you don't mind bad gas mileage.
Awesome car but in my country window tint is about 5$ per window
Dang that would be super amazing! How many cars I've had windows tinted on in my life I would have saved so much money.
More than you can afford pal...you can make monthly payments on a ferrari

Where did you get it all done at. 20k is nice price. They finance? 😅
I did a lot of it myself. The turbo kit however was installed by the shop that makes the kit. They where doing a deal for free install of the kit. I paid no money in labor on this build.
I would do it
You could beat a stock gtr
You could beat a modified gtr.
Did you pay a shop to put on all the mods or did you put them on yourself? Thanks :)
All mods was done by me besides turbo kit. The shop did free install on the turbo kit as a promotion.
Hi, boosted VQ. Was this build done on stock internals?
Stock block
It's my dream car, thanks for the response
What gtr cost ...
Idk lol I think you get them for like 50 or 60 but that was pre covid

Hecklkkk no
Is this all paid off?
Yes sir
What do you do for a living to be able to afford all this ?

BoostedVQ nice 👍
Hell yea beautiful
Thank you!
Have to understand if your a builder/project person no matter the car you will upgrade something just remember a 30k-45k car upgrades will rang from $500-20k but a car thats 55k-100k your looking at 1k-50k for upgrades. So turning a 20k car into a 40k in total price is not that bad for what you want but then buy at 60-80k car then just get a rear diffuser for 2k 🤷🏾♂️. It's about what you can afford one... then what you consider fun to get modified
👆man knows what’s good. ☺️
How is the torque low end like under 2500 rpm due to the turbo set up? Is the around the same or different than before?
Couldn't tell you. As far as I can tell the same when normal driving. You don't get on it at low rpm with a bigger turbo. You can bog the engine and turbo. Basically didnt give the turbo enough time to spool.
@@ShayHarambe Thanks for the quick response. I was just concerned with the response/feedback with the acceleration/torque for normal street driving due to a turbo add in. Since turbos are for higher rpm anyway, does the response time and torque down low get affected I guess.
Normal street driving is basically normal. If you gotta speed up downshift
Gtr is pricier than this car plus the build. And you can always hear the horsepower come out thats whats most important to me and as far as drifting goes i like the style of the 370z. super nice build hopefully down the line i can boost my nismo as well :)
You ever build one?
Hi, please do you have blow through MAF setup or draw through? I am currently also doing a build of my 350z, but can't decide between blow through vs draw through... Both ways are having some pros and cons...
I am running speed density
@@ShayHarambe thanks for your fast response, so you probably do have an aftermarket ECU, right?
@@lukassvoboda3759 stock ecu. Tuning through ecutek
How quick does the turbo spool up?
There was no lag.
$22k for the build.. .plus $18k 4 car

did you do all the work yourself?
All of it but the turbo kit. Switchback was doing a deal for free install. I won't pass that up.
I live in Orlando Florida and was considering turboing my Z any good shops you’d recommend?
If I was you I would go to switchback racing. Thats who did my turbo install. They are in deland florida. Not to far from you.
Yes da fuck i would spend that money on my 350z
hahaha do it brother
Nice
Thank you 🙏
The cost of your car plus the work STILL isn't enough for a GTR!
Shoot now it’s not. Back before covid I was touching GTR cost. They are bad af but I hear they arnt worth it. Dumb heavy feels like a boat, expensive to buy, parts are stupid expensive, maintenance is absurd and anything I think over 600 tq the trans has to be built which is 10k. Your looking at 150k car plus by the time you make decent power.
What 370z should I get
A sport. And try and get a 2014+ and above to.
How much did you pay for the 370z?
17
I would do it. Your gonna spend 40 grand on a used hellcat and your z would beat it. I'm actually doing this right now though with a g35. Also have a nice 06 bmw m5 that'd built. Where ya live. Maybe I could rub ya with my 06 bmw m5. It's the same whp.
Shoot I would if I still had it. I sold the z like a year ago.
600hp on a stock block, How reliable is that, what's the limit. I want to go twins on my g37 I'm scared to go 600hp
Stock block can hold 700 wheel. But at 700 it starts pushing it. G37 same block. You can do it. Its all in tuner and supporting mods though. Don't cheap out and take short cuts.
@@ShayHarambe thanks bruh I'm looking to go to will the AAM twin turbo kit. Is that your 370 in Admid video

If you think about it you could find a really decent 370z put as much money for what you paid for it and have a new car that you can call your own
Cool car. For the price though, it's one thing if you already have a 370 and just want more, but if looking for a car that you want to tinker with from scratch, I'd probably lean towards a 335 and do bolt ons for a similar result, but 370s are in my opinion are good looking cars and I like the fact yours has the stock body. All I'd do is wheels on one of those cosmetically
You’re not bolting on 600whp
