370Gt Modding And Power Gains + Servicing Of 7Spd Auto

[Chappy]

Hey everybody,

I have spent the last hour searching and sifting through various discussions but I have been unable to find any useful info here or on Google about modding 370gt V36.

I imported myself a 2009 370gt sedan a little over a year ago and I am getting curious about possibly putting in an exhaust and doing an ECU flash.

Has anybody else done this yet? If so what sort of power gains did you get?

Also, what sort of care should I be giving to my auto gearbox? Is there a recommended service schedule?

Any good places in Sydney that can give my gearbox a checkup?

There's threads about V36 modding...you can always look up myg37 or g35driver under 07-08 g35s....same car, a little different engine, mods similar.

Most people use UpRev for ecu reflash.

As for exhaust, changing HFC is better than a cat back exhaust...

ConceptZperformance is a good site for parts.

If it's a VQ37VHR I have seen some people modify and put a R35 GTR intake and plenum on.

As soon as you start doing internals it gets very pricey.

I would ring MV Automatics and see what they can do for a valve body shift kit. Won't be as smooth but the shifts will be quicker.

I have dealt with MV Automatics and they are good, but i don't want to send my car to SA or have it off the road for a few weeks while the gearbox goes down there.

Not looking to mod the gearbox right now, just give it a checkup.
