9 Must Have Mods for the Nissan 370Z

[@Brock_CO]

1 - Radiator and Thermostat 1:00 2 - Intake 1:45 3 - Exhaust 3:53 4 - Tuner Module 5:14 5 - Coilovers 6:07 6 - Sway Bars 7:13 7 - Brakes 7:49 8 - Oil Cooler 8:39 9 - Supercharger 💀 9:03

[@ddrhero]

If you think the radiator is "low hanging fruit" on a 370 you never tried to take a radiator out of a 370. They're built so deep into the frame it's a big big job. plus, the water temps aren't the problem, the oil temps are the problem. a much better solution is an oil cooler.

[@ajc5370]

Agree completely how many people don't understand the benefit of an oil cooler. That's horsepower right there

[@videomaniac108]

I went with a Fast Intentions TDX x-pipe CBE, a Stillen Gen 3 long tube CAI and an EcuTek dyno tune on a Dynojet chassis dyno and went from 282 peak rwhp @ 7200rpm stock, to 302 peak rwhp @7200 rpm with the intake and exhaust and finally to 321 peak rwhp @ 7200rpm after the tune. We saw a uniform 15% gain in torque across the whole rev range after the tune, which corrected a very lean condition at low revs and a moderately lean condition at high revs, due to the increased airflow and higher volumetric efficiency. About half of the total gains we got were from the fuel/air and ignition corrections done with the new hardware. The car feels almost as if it has gained another cylinder.

You really should do your research.. The stock radiator and thermostat is just fine unless you go turbo. And intakes, here it's widely known that Stillen gen 3 is the best option. The headers on 350 and 370z are not cast. They are stainless steel short tube headers.

[@Gzminecraft03]

Admin intakes are better than stillens

[@ronaldo19832]

Ya this guy makes no sense

[@isher9035]

Stillen and Injen. Those are the two best options. The Stillen just gets more attention (as it should.)

[@nickwinter7344]

I mean first gen 370z yea but second nah it’s not necessary to upgrade unless you’re doing turbo or supercharger

[@NateandSelena]

@@Gzminecraft03 yeah you may be right but when u live in California and need carb legal intakes only choice I got aha

[@rcghalohell]

Oil cooler is more efficient than the radiator and thermostat

[@Zenki240sxse]

Definitely for the Z. Oil is hot on twisties within minutes...

[@ajc5370]

So many people overlook the oil cooler! That's horsepower on any motor right there

[@Joseaintlow]

What ever you guys do , do not buy short ram intakes . It is dyno proven that they make less power than oem air boxes. They should really be called hot air intakes

[@thegang691]

Thats what we tell customers who have a hard on for air intakes, its the same with the imprezas and evos we used to tune, get a good quality better flow filter to replace the standard paper filter within the air box. Really thought folk had wisened up to these ram intakes by now? but no, still brain dead lol

[@Zenki240sxse]

Let me say with a turbo Z, the stock sport brakes even with upgraded pads and rotors is still going to get smoked even on the street. Any boosted Z will need a brake and oil cooler upgrade especially for the early years. Don't forget the clutch with forced induction definitely a must have in addition to a external slave cylinder upgrade due to the super common CSC failures.

[@Spushed]

You totally missed stillen and Z1 motorsports long tube CAI, best long tube header are Fast Intentions as well as the exhaust (fuck CA compliance...), best turbo kit...you guessed it...fast intentions!

[@07wrxtr1]

1) PS4S Tires 2) Hotchkis FRONT sway bar 9(leave the rear swaybar STOCK!) 3) Alignment 4) Fast Intentions Exhaust with CF Mufflers (not this chrome PLEASE NOTICE ME!!!! crap) + HF Cats 5) Oil Cooler - z1 has the most comprehensive kit options!!! 6) z1 motorsports intakes (you want these so you won't have to cut the stock radiator area) 7) z1 2-piece rotors (which you can get the front pair as a GENUINE 2 piece design cheaper than what this joker is advertising from stoptch lol) + your choice of brake pads + ss lines 8) If you're going to go Supercharger then you would have done good by getting a new header, however keep in mind the stock stillen kit lacks when it comes to cooling the charged air, so SOHO motorsports has a kit for a much better cooling setup, otherwise you truly would have wasted your money with just the stillen kit by itself as most are BARELY getting 350-360 hp at the wheels lol. SOHO kit will put that closer to the 500+ depending upon fueling.... 9) Tuning - find a tuner that actually is physically local to you if you're going FI, otherwise Seb at Specialty Z is the ticket.

[@rcghalohell]

Easily the smartest list

[@petrichor8804]

So what you’re saying is this dude is a clown

[@Ahmed-rk6br]

Can you make a list for turbo or can I use this list

[@07wrxtr1]

@@Ahmed-rk6br I would recommend going to the "fast intentions" website. They have a well done turbo kit, it's not cheap, but it has everything you need. SOHO also should be considered if you want to go supercharging route, I also think they can do turbo as well. Both companies are the best in the business, won't be the cheapest, but if you want things done correctly, they're the way to go.

[@07wrxtr1]

@Sjdidjcn Jdir9fj Prettymuch!

[@chrisceja9989]

As soon as he said “short tube intake” I was out

[@isher9035]

Personally, I bought the X-Force exhaust for my 370Z (found it cheaper than the Magnaflow) and much prefer it.

[@performanceoverlooks]

You had me until recommending drilled rotors lol. Just get slotted if you run sportier or semi-metallic pads that make a lot of dust, otherwise leave them blank guys.

[@Motoroso]

Well.... not everyone looks for pure performance. Some people really like the look/style of drilled rotors. And frankly, on the street it's unlikely anyone is finding the edge of a drilled rotor's strength.... that level of abuse is most likely only gonna occur on track.

[@performanceoverlooks]

@@Motoroso its definitely true that some people like that look, although i don’t understand why. Anyway, we probably shouldn’t be recommending mods that give a fake racecar look but actually have negative impacts only. Holes will just eat your pads for no reason. And racecars don’t have drilled rotors. Just wanted to put that message out there for anyone with a new Z looking to improve their car based off of this list. Agree with everything else except the radiator and thermostat though. Oil cooler is all you need if not boosted. My indentical but heavier G37 ran super steady temps in the florida summer during track days haha. Br series coilovers good. Sway bars good, would recommend hotchkis (although rear is not necessary unless you wana slide). Exhaust and long tube intake good. I recommend single exit 3” exhaust for weight savings and optimal power if you can deal with the sound. And superchargers are cool if you can deal with the extra front end weight and cooling issues if tracking.

[@leoperez8437]

All this on stock tires?

[@ducatii360]

If you didn’t buy the el cheap on 370z then they would have come with potenza tires which are sticky as hell and more than enough grip

[@thegang691]

Those cone filters suffer from extreme heat soak, so in turn reduces performance, you want an upgraded filter to go within the air box or a tubed system with a cone filter with a carbon heat repellant box.

Yall missed Limited slip diff.. which outside of cooling is Mod 1

[@davemelton9811]

So much misinformation, “stock exhaust manifolds are cast” dude has clearly never popped the hood on a 370Z.

[@Zenki240sxse]

True but equal length headers are easily the highest horsepower gains available on an NA build. I mean unless you're willing to do cams which is significantly more money.

[@hyenapeacekeeper2220]

Forgot a better clutch, especially after the supercharger, stock one can only handle something like 460HP

Have a company fabricate you a custom cat back system instead of buying these systems off the shelf. You will get a better quality system fabricated system on the car there and then.
