'04 G35 Coupe 5AT hits 400whp!



It is equipped with a Vortec 9lb pulley, 550 injectors, retune and the rev limiter bumped to 7000rpm.



And I have no idea what the "Gay" references are in the image??? Perhaps the customer name?

Nice Has the tranny been upgraded at all?

What's up with the bump close to redline at 7k? The AFR also goes lean.

Dude that's awesome!! Is that all it took to get to 400whp?? Does it have any other mods other than what you listed? Also how much money does that supercharger and the work done cost? ALl the questions because I was debating to get a G35C and supercharge it.

Odd that nobody said the "gay" reference was due to the drivetrain. You all must be slipping. Even if I don’t agree with that.

The shop that did my S/C install was supposed to S/C a G35c with the Vortech blower but it never happened. That sucker looks like its a beast.

Alot of vortech supercharged g35's reach that amount very easily. I plan to turbo or supercharge my g when i get the funds. And no, the tranny doesnt need to be upgraded. The auto trannies on g35's are built really well and there is no need for a upgraded tranny. SInce the the rpms were raised to 7000, he most definetely got the technosquare ecu to do proper tuning.

Hmm I heard the internals won't handle much more than 400whp. I'd be afraid to run into that monser on the street though

The rods are the weak point in the engine. The VQ engine can handle up to 400rwhp. Anything more than that, rods need to be upgraded

Take a look at the Torque...its around 316 ft/lbs. Auto trannies aren't rated by horsepower but by how much torque is produced. At an 20% drivetrain loss (G35 auto tranny avg loss), this amounts to about 390-400 ft/lbs of torque. The auto tranny was developed on the VK series (v8 producing 333 ft/lbs) so the torque is about 70 ft/lbs too high. But given that manufacturers usually have some tolerance built into their system, the auto trannies may be able to handle that effectively with additional cooling (tranny coolers).

Nice #'s, but that AFR going high and the curve looking wierd is somewhat odd. From 6.5K onwards you see power dropping. That's usually for two reasons:

(i) S/C or Turbo can't flow enough air
(ii) Cams arn't quite making power up that high.

It is nearly impossible to have a 40whp bump at 6800 RPM especially considering the cams are stock and the VQ does not hae variable valve lift. Are you sure the engine
did not blow up at 6.9K? That would explain the power and the AFR. Running a 16.0:1 AFR at 7K under boost is destructive

I thought something looked fishy

I basically copied your response... We'll wait for a reply... :P

All the VQ humpers will probably say it's no big deal...

Nissan makes the G35C, not Honda.
