Yep that monster will silence all the Z critics here. Sounds like you have a tru modded 55 compressor or 600/65TT killer there!

Thank you. The GT-R looks amazing.
It is pretty cookie cutter as far as power mods. Greddy TT, Eagle Rods, Performance Factory "Untouchable" pistons, JWT C2 cams, 3" Downpipes with dumps, 3" AAM exhaust etc.

This is a 10 psi drive by. You can really hear the dumps.

I can't drag race to save my life. It has a twin disc clutch, and it absolutely is a booger to launch with (for me). It is set up for a road coarse.

I can understand on doubters 100%. It is extremely easy to claim stupid stuff on the internet.

In the end we are all car enthusiast, and that is what counts.

Took out a nice red 350Z this morning on my way to work. Don't think it was modded much or at all considering how quickly it dissapeared.

The Z`s problem is 2 fold
the mass of the car (1560kg or more)
the slowness of the engine to pick up revs

Was it an Altima SE-R? How much of a shot was he running? I've been trying to convince my friend who owns an SE-R to run spray.
