We love the latest version of the Nismo 370z. In fact this is the aesthetic that should have been released from the start! Although the Nismo Z has improved cosmetically the drivetrain still summons the same 350 horses and 276 lb-ft of torque it has offered since the package first appeared in 2009(!).

Power junkies need not fear, Z Car Garage is here to help. With only 22k miles on the odometer, Rasheed B came to us with his stunning 2015 Nismo Z finished in Pearl White for a full Vortech supercharger kit.

Here are a few pictures of the Stillen Black Series supercharger kit installed:

How does it perform?

Bone stock from the factory, the Z put down 295hp/242tq. The Stillen supercharger added 84hp/58tq to the wheels with the kit-supplied CAN tune:

Rob’s tuning yielded even more power with final numbers of 420hp/320tq, improvements of 125hp/78tq over baseline.
This Nismo 370z now has more power to back up those aggressive looks! Enjoy The Ride, Rasheed!

Ron L came to Z Car Garage from a dealership referral and we installed a full Stillen supercharger kit on his 2013 Nismo 370z.

Stillen’s kit offers VQ37 owners 400whp and full CARB compliance—it’s extremely popular with ZCG customers and we have performed numerous installs over the years. Here is Ron’s polished setup:

The install went smoothly and we added a Stillen 25-row oil cooler and GT-R spark plugs:



Yes, we miss that OEM Nismo red intake cover but the Stillen intake is equally pretty and still fits under the NISMO strut tower brace!

On the dyno a CAN tune with ZCG touches nets a satisfying +132hp/70tq gain for a total of 436hp/323tq at the wheels:
Icing on the cake is that next time Ron pulls beside a police officer he will be cool as a cucumber knowing his 500hp Nismo Z is 50-state emissions legal 🙂 Enjoy The Boosted Ride, Ron!

Mike U visted Z Car Garage back in May for Stillen intakes on his Nismo 370z. The Z was a gift to himself and with just 2800 miles on the odometer he got the modification bug. In addition to the intakes we installed a Fast Intentions exhaust system and Eibach springs:

Exhaust before/after:

A few more shots of the system:


The Fast Intentions system looks great and also frees up some power!

We saw a 7hp peak gain at the wheels over baseline:
With Rob’s UPREV tuning Mike’s Z34 now makes 315hp/256tq:
Eibach springs improve the stance and SPC camber arms keeping the alignment in check:

We dig the slight ride height reduction:

Enjoy The Ride, Mike!

Our customer and friend of the shop Bill Clark just reviewed the 2014 Nismo 370z for
eBay Motors Blog. In addition to giving readers a taste of the 370z, he also compares it to his slightly modified 350z.
Bill’s 2007 350z was one of the first HR-powered cars at ZCG to receive a Bassani exhaust and minor bolt-ons resulting in just over 300whp. Time does fly and these mods were installed six years ago! Good news is that Bill is still Enjoying The Ride in his beloved 350z and he was kind enough to think of Z Car Garage when writing his eBay article. We happily dyno’d both the Nismo 370z and Bill’s 350z so check his
review out for the results!

Thanks again Bill for giving ZCG a shout in your review!
