Met with Stillen rep today and discussed the supercharger...

OK guys me and Deus met with the Stillen rep today the Nissan meet and he basically said for us to hit up their sales staff and he said if we get enough people that they would most likely consider making it. So I asked how much is "enough" people. I said 10 and he said "yeah that sounds about right" So anyways he said only to send an e-mail if you are a seriois buyer. I would love to get a SC but I don't think It's feasible for me at thsi point!!
But I know some of you would be seriously interested in this so here it is:
Email to slsmgr@stillen.com and express interest in the SC. Once they get enough serious requests they will consider it...

I wouldn't assume it would be anything that would happen right away...not sure how quick Stillen is to react to things like this though, you never know!!

It sounded like it may take some time to develop the brackets and plumbing. So save ur pennies and email Stillen (slsmgr@stillen.com)

For that much HP, I'm in...

Also, RedLineMax is finishing an SC kit for the 4th Gen and said they will develop a 6th Gen next. If Stillen is a no go, which they have so often done, I going with RedLineMax...

The rep said the 5th gen SC was $5000 and would anticipate the 6th gen being the same. Remember, there is a much higher demand for Z turbos than MAx turbos. Price is demand driven.

The G35 is advertised for $5300
http://stillen.com/product_detail.aspx?sku=407371IC3

But probably not done yet with additional spending for
hood clearance and other minor details like colder spark plugs, etc.

Sorry just wanted to know because few of the org members will be trading in their 6 gen for the 7 gen. I would bet if the sc does not fit people would not trade their cars in, just my 2 cents.

Yeah but like Chern said, "it does not exist yet" so how could anybody know?? Only the designers behind those locked Nissan doors could answer that question at this point, not anybody on these boards...

Dude, we had sketchy info at best for the 06 and I think the "What's new for the 06 Max" thread lasted from February through August (7 months) and no one was still 100% sure until about July and even then could not confirm until Aug when 06's started showing up at showrooms. I suspect the 7th Gen info will be as tight lipped as Saddam Hussein and his WMD...
