lol yeah it shouldn't be much of a brawl as a beat down considering you have a supercharged 6 over his n/a...just get that launch down and you'll be smoking him every way (except maybe at like an auto-x lol)

Just ease into the throttle from stand still. That, or get better traction tires on the rear... I enjoyed taking my c32, and 350z out. 350z really didnt stand a chance though. Mine also has CAI, and full exhaust.

yeah the 350 was a nice car though, you should have seen the look on his face after the race, it was priceless

A basic blower setup on the 350z puts it around 450HP, and turbo will get it well beyond that. Watch out for the modified ones!

He's in Ft. Meyers.....our cars suffer a lot in the heat. Race that Z when the temp is in the low 40s/upper 30s, and it's going to be a much bigger margin.

Yeah its kinda a waste of gas on a NA 350. The turbos are something worry about. I've seen turbo 350's putting down 400whp on stock internals. How long they lasted, i dont know..lol.

c32K, I noticed you are in Fort Myers. Just wanted to see if you are interested in going to the supercar show next Saturday. I am going across and meeting some other guys in Ft Lauderdale (see the thread under events). Do you want to join me and then us?
PM me. It should be fun

yeah the heat down here is intense sometimes, i think the temp was like 74F that night, and yes when its cold its a big difference. it was 48F and didnt get up past 60 so far. its a big relief for us down here

not to the wheels. without a built cosworth motor, even the turbo ones are doable. prior to my headers, i was dead even with a turbo'd G35 sedan built by dynocomp. it was a beast.

yah....agreed. not worth the gas with the n/a. 400whp i guess depends on the dyno. i definitely believe it on a dynojet....on a dynodynamics or mustang? thats pushing it.

kabooom. believe it...and have seen it. in fact, that g35 sedan i just mentioned blew his motor. forgot what exactly happened, but i know the guy was being an idiot. i think he was on 6 psi. MAYBE 7. maybe.

from a dig. left foot on brake. right foot on gas...rev up to about 1500...and then feather it through first as you release the brake. it took me a while to get my launches down....do some practicing and you'll get it down. nice kill btw!

i just go by dynojet numbers since thats the standard most magazines and other car people go by.
