7thGen Vs. 350Z my best race ever!!!

oh... my god!!! i just raced a 350Z just about 30mins. ago and here's what happened...

i just got off from work cruising on a not so back road and on the first stop light was this very messed up lookin black spray painted dodge neon, he's tryin to make a left, I was on the inner lane but I was bored so I thought I race him... so I changed lane next to him to make a left turn... but when the light turned green, and the bastard made a U turn, so I was like ...

so I took a left and went on my business, and on the next stop light, I was at the outter lane this time, on the inner lane is a honda civic 6thGen looks like a 99, he's got nice wheels, nicely lowered, and it looks like it got a lot of mods... I was thinkin, when he punch it, he's gonna make a big mistake ... then all of a sudden, comes a 350Z as soon as he pulled up he revved his engine so hard that it makes his whole car shook like a friggin muscle car... me>>> after he revved I revved back , then the 6thGen civic revved as well... 6thGen and 7thGen engine sounded like little ***** cats "meow" against a friggin lions growl...

so the light turned green...

I had a perfect launch, the perillis gripped so well and thanks to the ACT Clutch!, on 1st and 2nd, I was a car ahead! then when I shifted on third, 350Z pulled up even, I was at about 5K RPM on 3rd and 350Z is pulling about a foot per second, I was about 6500K RPM I changed to 4th and I was just holding on to the Z, I was on 4th gear for about 4seconds and I didn't budge another foot... I don't think it was a full 1/4 mile, i don't know, I never been on a drag strip... but I'm 100% sure it was over a 1/8 mile... yes, he was ahead of me, but god damn! that was a race, worth racing for!!! only if I had my boost at 10PSI

after we slowed down on the next stop light, rolled down my window, and gave him a huge he was so pissed I can see him, changing lanes back and forth behind me waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha a grocery getter almost smoked a 35K car waaaaaaaaahahahahaha!

350@287HP--3' ahead of the 7thGen Vs. 7thGen Boosted@7PSI Untuned

nice death, but almost a kill. Do you have a BOV? Is it MT/AUTO? If you where tuned, it'll be lights out for 350z

THe only downside of the 350 Z is its a little chubby. If they could lighten it up, that would truly be nice. I hope Nissan makes a rear-wheel 4 cyclidner sports car again. Something light like the old 240sx.

Compared to cars with a curb weight in the 2,000's.

The GMC Typhoon runs 13's, that doesn't mean it's not a pig.

I wish. Unfortunately we don't seem to be buying enough of those sorts of cars to make it profitable anymore.

I know it really sucks if only all those sports cars came out now!

Integra Type R was ahead of its time.

Type S is bit of a pig.

Nice race.. the Z's are slow1-3rd gear... 4th and 5th is where we are the fastests.. and yes the z is a big fat car.. 3200lbs

I got to race a 2k1 with the sf kit at 9lbs and dead even 1-2 gear and pulled a little in 3rd and then after that i just took off and that was when i was stock.. but those d17s with boost are quick..

Also only the track and convert z are 35k .. i picked mine up new for only 27k.

Ps... come race me before the turbo goes on soon

There is one thing about the Z that makes it hard to not love its fatness. The darn thing is so darn sexy. One thing I don't like about the s2000 is the back, I find it too small, the Z is nice and big. Its bigger than a civic! Even though its a roadster it looks better than an s2000 or boxster or bmw Zwhatever. Those cars look a little to much like miatas.

Z makes a wicked growl when you rev it. So deep. Z is not a slow car, its freak nasty fast.

Obviously I don't own a Z but I agree with what you said, atleast from the experience I had racing one...

From a 2nd gear roll, I got the jump and stayed ahead with confidence until the very end of my 3rd gear when the Z definitely started to pull.

Same thing happened from a stop, I got the jump and was ahead, after rowing through the first 3 gears, the Z was inchin and pulling even with me. In the middle of 4th gear, I think...Im not sure on this I was focused on what was infront of me......the Z was a front bumper ahead, all I know is that it was pretty damn even.



Don't worry, my car is a pig too......about 3100lbs

How are the stock internals on the engine of the 350Z. I heard its pretty well built. Will you need to rebuild the engine before you Turbo it?

But it does kinda suck that his car is stock na and you are boosted and you still lost. Yet he does have a v6.
