Interesting start. I agree with the shortcomings they noted. They are addressing: oil temps, clutch, brakes. If they continue to track and fix, I suspect they will stiffen the suspension too.

 

It'll be interesting to see how the project comes along and the results of their modifications.

 

The only big thing the G37 needs on the track is an oil cooler. Once you stop that overheating thing, it's a very very capable track car. I'm not really sure about the clutch problems they had. I've never had that issue. Though admittedly the whole overheating thing limited the time I could spend on the track.

I'm sure for real racing you'd overheat the brakes and want a stiffer suspension, but for 7/10ths track days, it's pretty damn good straight from the factory. Other than the oil temp issue.

 

I havent ran into this issue yet... but im glad there project is a G37

Part 2 is online - Installing Coilovers

 

Nice, cant wait to see how this turns out. Looks like they went with BC Coils which I am sure will be criticized by some.

Cool. Coming along nicely.

 

Its nice, but they just lowered the fronts 1" to match the rear. Thats not aggressive at all..

 

we need more technical info on these cars.
