5 MUST HAVE Mods for your 370Z | Build Update

[@ZeroFX32]

Next: two piece rotors and akebono calipers. It will accelerate quicker, corner easier (feels lighter) and suspension works quicker as well. If you do intake, I'd suggest going 3" instead of stock size. If you plan on staying on stock diameter then it's better to put high flow drop in filters (MAFs work better with stock plastic tube according to my tuner). I would like to see your experiences with an improved clutch pedal and short throw shifter.

[@jawadmajeed]

Yeah there's just so much you can do with this car. I still haven't decided which route to take, what kind of build to do etc. Thanks for the advice!

[@cediepurificacion8480]

For people who is reading this , invest on a dry drop in filter . Thank me later

I don’t know why it took me so long to understand that you did not mean an engine to go into reverse. 😅

I have 3 vq37 power vehicles ones at 174k just gotta do maintenance properly

[@CalgaryRambler]

Hey thanks for the awesome tips! I just subscribed to your channel, and hope to own a 370Z soon myself

[@jawadmajeed]

Not a problem! Thank you for the sub! Hope you can get one soon, these cars are awesome.

I have a 2019 370Z 6MT sport pkg that I got new. It has Hotchkiss anti-roll bars front and rear that have improved the handling. Stoptech stainless steel braided brake lines have firmed up the brake pedal. I hade a Stillen Gen 3 long tube cold air intake, a Fast Intentions dual x-pipe cat back exhaust plus a dyno tune done with Ecutek software. We got about 55 more peak horsepower at the crank and a 15% increase in torque across the whole rev range. Litespeed Racing forged magnesium monoblock wheels of the same size as the OEM Rays wheels have taken off about 9 lbs from each corner. Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 (240) tires are a lightweight tire with good handling precision and grip.

[@MemosGarageAZ]

Good info just picked up a 370Z a few months ago and I will be doing this exact thing too soon.

[@jawadmajeed]

Awesome! Welcome to the Z family.

[@Snairb_C824]

you think nismos have the same issue with the slave cylinder? i had a 2010 7 years ago and that was the first issue i had with the car. fast forward to current day im in the market for a nismo:)

[@jawadmajeed]

Yes, I believe they do. The issue is specific to the manual transmission on these cars.

[@bigthings1818]

I have almost the same set up right now. Zspeed stage 2 quiet kit, and a Mishimoto shift knob. I’m gonna change the shift knob tho it gets too damn hot here in texas

[@jawadmajeed]

Awesome, love this setup, but yeah, hot weather and a metal shift knob don't pair well 😅

[@ryanbruss4783]

Love the advise man. Was hoping u did a cold air intake mod tho. Don’t know what brand would be best. Nice car tho bro.

[@jawadmajeed]

Thanks man. Cold air intake is truly useful with a full exhaust in my opinion. In this video, I had only done a muffler delete. Best cold air intakes for this car are Z1, admin tuning, or stillen. The ones that bring the intake to the front bumper. If you go more than 2.5" in diameter, you'll need a tune though.

[@ryanbruss4783]

One more question. Does an exhaust delete fail your emissions? Absolutely love the sound but don’t want to keep swapping once a year for the emissions test ya know.

[@jawadmajeed]

@@ryanbruss4783 I'm not entirely sure. Removing the catalytic converters are the main cause of emission issues. I'm not sure if a muffler delete will also cause issues. My guess is no but I could be wrong. What I understand is the muffler only "muffles" the sound i.e. reduce the loudness of the exhaust gas flow. I don't know how this could be linked to the gas composition. I hear you on the emission tests though. It can be annoying. Luckily they got rid of emission testing in Ontario. Where are you located?

[@ryanbruss4783]

@@jawadmajeed I’m located in Milwaukee, WI. Ya we don’t have emissions centers anymore but once a year we still have to have a shop plug in to our car to renew our registration. And if anything causes our engine light to come on we instantly fail. It’s a bummer for sure. Definitely won’t do catalytic removal but might try the exhaust delete. I WANT a lil more sound ya know. Thanks man!

[@jawadmajeed]

@@ryanbruss4783 yeah I hear you. No problem man! Glad I could help.

@@buckyoung77 yes, not the most practical car, but it's not meant to be. This car is designed for performance. I do have Blindspot mirrors to help with the terrible Blindspots though.

Great video. I have a 2020 370Z automatic, can I put a weight shift knob on mine? where did you get yours?

[@jawadmajeed]

I'm not sure if it will work. I got mine from Amazon. However, the purpose of a weighted shift knob is to improve manual shifting, so I don't think it will benefit an automatic car.

This probably a dumb question but do automatic 370s have same clutch slave cylinder problems?

Nope. That issue is only for manual transmissions.

stock exhaust, except for muffler delete/axle back

im looking at 2013 370zs in pretty good condition for around 20-25k. do you think its a good reliable daily driver besides gas ofc. id be getting an automatic too.

[@jawadmajeed]

Depends on where you live since it's not the best in extreme winter or areas which get a lot of snow. Overall, it's a reliable car with only a few reliability issues which can be taken care of.
