Re: Kraftwerks? Nothing I can disclose other than that it's being worked on...

The prototype car's engine is under teardown right now after being beat on for months. They want to see if there are any issues.

I wish they would produce a Nismo FI kit that would complement the stock warranty. That would sell like hotcakes.

APS makes single and twin turbo kits. I think a single kit would be pretty cool, but they're not known to make centrifugal or root style blowers, atleast not for the Z and Gs.

A single kit on a twin intake engine sure is a challenge!

If Vortech, HKS, etc had a CARB legal supercharger kit for the G, I'd order it tomorrow. There just isn't a lot of room work where the G35 and 350z kit makers put there kits, so I wonder if we'll ever see a kit.

Looks like a supercharger should be coming out for the 37hr soon

Is it just me, or I can't find any charger system in those pictures of the yellow Z. Unless its really that on the front bottom of the motor where nothing can be seen, then thats low pro and insanely badazz

So it's official GTM is going to be using a Rotrex centrifugal supercharger. It also looks like the motor may need to be pulled since lack of clearance for installation.

I'm sure this will work with the G37 with minor adjustments for the intercooler piping.

That thing better not end up costing like a TT kit installed.

I think they pulled the motor out just for test fitting once finalized hopefully that won't be necessary
