If that car made a real 440 hp there is NO chance you would have won. Is your car a Stage III EVO kit or a renntech car with ecu pulley and cams? Lets be realistic the kit on the G35 is not working correctly and the owner is talking a lot of bs if his car is that slow. C32 is quick but my C32 was a few cars quicker than a bone stock G35 coupe 6-speed. If you add 160 hp to a G35 there is NO way it is slower than a C32. That is only if the hp claim is valid and honest. Sounds very fishy to me.

Even with the Stage I upgrades that you list on your car, that does sound a little off. Does your friend have a twin turbo kit or a supercharger? A lot of the superchargers on the market for the G35 are a little optimistic in their hp claims, but even then I would expect a fairly close race. I'm going to be building a 1000hp G35 in the coming months. Care to race mine?

My car has only the Stage I upgrades but I don't know why my car has 350 rwhp. Anyone can tell me why my car is lower than other C32? I did not change lower spring.
Ben, when will the 190mm pulley be available?

Euro spec C32 is lower than the U.S./North America spec C32.

Your car has a lot more stuff than just stage 1. the powerchip probably gives you around 30-40hp as i heard, the odp+ic that's another 20-25hp at least, sl55 y-pipe is another 5-10 as they say, so add it up. If your car is a strong one say around 280whp plus the 60-70hp at least and there you have it.

A friend of mine also has a euro spec C32, I have compared with his C32. However, mine is lower than his.
I don't know SL-55 y-pipe and air box can give me 5-10. I thought they gave me 2-3.

To clarify the HP numbers:

ODPS - 30whp
Powerchip (w/ ODPS) - 20whp
SL55 Y-Pipi - 6whp (must have a pulley upgrade to be worthwhile)

Email the video to me at peench@spymac.com and I'll host it for everyone and post the link here. I can accept up to a gig attachment so it should be fine.

Not rude at all but ill say this...an associate works for Nissan North America and he has a G35 coupe 6-speed and takes a 350z track home when he feels like it. When I had my C32 my car was a bit quicker than his but nothing that was enough to write home about (350z is a bit quicker and a good race up to 90 mph). Caught in the wrong power band or wrong gear, the C32 was door to door until we reached triple digit speeds. At the track the C32 will begin to real in a G35 about half way down the straight. It is faster but there is NO way a 440 hp (if it made a real 440hp) G35 is being put in its place by a stock c32. Ever notice how ricer mods tend to make less power than some might thing? It is an example of conservative power figures vs. a company trying to sell a bunch of mods to the public. Don’t get me wrong the G35 and 350z are great cars and Nismo is a great aftermarket company. This whole 440 hp thing is to much to believe that’s all. How about a dyno plot?
