Just posting updates 
Finally got around to getting my 07 5AT 370gt Coupe tuned at East coast customs.

My only performance mods are Cold air intake (z1) and a Twin x Pipe cat back Exhaust.

My car was tuned with 167kms on the clock and made great power imo

In the end i made 218rwkw with 325nm of torque.

Super happy with the work carried out and Quite happy with the power that managed to come through the 5AT. 
I wasnt risking an e-tune to get over the 300hp mark etc

So how do you tune a VQ37? Do you have piggy back devices, an aftermarket ECU or is there a replacement tune-able chip in your ECU?

Uprev tuned my friend. Stock ecu is tunable :)

I thought the 370GT was already rated at 325 hp.

Guess I should get mine checked out sometime to see what it does put out.

 

it is but not at the wheels. The 325HP is at the fly.

now i've gone from 325 at the crank to around 355 and the cars alot more responsive.

 

Edit - Keep in mind the cars 12 years old. Its 325 at the crank wasnt that accurate anymore. Dyno'd in at 316 to the crank.

Ok.  I am considering doing something with mine... traded in a 300ZX TT for it, which was around 340 hp at the wheel (I still shed a tear when I see a nice Z go by, but both myself and the Fairlady were getting old)  anyways, the VQ37 is quite impressive, but I wouldn't mind a little more torque starting off, probably not going so far as to start looking at turbo/supercharger options.

    • Oh man what a deal.... Funny enough (well not really) I sold a car to some old dude (buying for his Daughter) on a Saturday, He asked if she could take the car now and pay me the money on Monday as the bank wasn't open. Needless to say I told them to come back with the cash or get f**ked! Luckily the money seemed to magically appear in his pocket a few minutes later, so it all ended well (for me).

    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed    
    • All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?
