Nice one Benny!

I have a 05 Anniversary edition 6 speed manual with Brembos and all the goodies. Still only has 10,000 miles on her... She gets babied....

I wanted a Stillen supercharger but, don't want to have to buy the hood that is necessary and I'm NOT butchering my stock hood either. I would go with a single turbo setup. There is almost NO room for all the pipes, intercooler and turbo itself. it's all so close together you'll DEFINITELY need some heat shields. You could pull 400 realistically on 6-8 lbs of boost and keep her a daily driver for sure! (car new is dynoed at something like 270HP?)

The only thing I hate about the new ones? PADDLE SHIFT! I likes me a gated 6 speed!

Here's mine.

SHORT shift!

Cool sandy- Nismo only comes as M6 speed. Short shift kit is what Im getting next. I dont think I am going to do anything cosmetically to it besides tint the window. I might do a supercharger if it doesnt cost an arm and a leg and it comes out soon enough. Right now Im thinking TT w/ low boost.

Sweet! That is like a chick version of the Miata.

**BennytheBlade** · 11-18-2009, 07:45 PM

So I

installed an intake, high flow cats and a short shift kit on my Niz. Hopefully making 380 hp. Dyno soon.

A few pics of the fun.

You paid that guy to install it you mean! That is not you, sir!

**SSandshark1050** · 11-18-2009, 08:56 PM

The VQ37 is putting 280 to the floor with 260 torque.

The factory numbers come from the crank.

Re-Flash your ECU, disable your VDC.

With what you put in it, it should increase your high end and flatten your torque curve some.

+20 HP with the mods but your car is 200 lbs heavier than the year before it.

I'm guessing on the dyno you should hover in the REAL 300 range (to the floor of course)

Err, didnt I mention my brother in law assisted me in this process? How did I forget that? That may be his lift and he may have done all the work... just maybe.

Seriously tho he is a mechanic and has a lift at his home which made working on this car (which is about 5 inches off the ground) a LOT easier.
