Gary M came to ZCG to have Stillen intakes installed and an UPREV tune to maximize the benefits of the new breathing mods. His G37 Convertible already had a custom exhaust installed so here is the baseline with mild gains from the Stillen Gen3 intakes alone for a total of 294hp/244tq to the wheels:
Rob’s UPREV tuning yielded +8hp/9tq to the wheels for a total of 304hp/253tq. On the dyno note the improvements from low rpm all the way to redline:
Just another example of how UPREV tuning can optimize your bolt-on power mods!

Adam L works at an Infiniti dealership in the Bay Area. He had numerous bolt-on suspension parts installed at the dealership but left the dial-in and fine tuning to ZCG. Little details like tidying up the KW coil-over suspension and replacing some mangled sway bar bushings got the G37 back on the road:
Enjoy the Ride, and thanks for rocking a Z Car Garage banner on your windshield Adam! 🙂

With the unveiling of the 370z right aound the corner, at the LA auto show in November, there are bound to be more and more pictures taken of the test cars to hype it up before the release. Here are the latest and greatest:

The specs are not fully disclosed yet but since Nissan will be aiming the 370z at the Porsche Cayman we need to expect some pretty large platform changes. The engine will be the 3.7 liter VQ variant that is currently in the Infiniti G37, although there may be a few tweaks here and there to differentiate the two power plants. The wheel base will also be slightly shorter coming in around 100 inches.
The biggest improvement in many peoples eyes over the outgoing 350z will be a dramitic reduction in weight. The outgoing car weighs somewhere north of 3,500 pounds while the new 370z is aiming for under 3,200. Only time will tell what the production cars will add up to. We can’t wait to get our hands on one of these beasts and put it through it’s paces.
As I see more info on the 370z I will post it here first thing. Don’t be a stranger to ZCarBlog.com!
