Thread: Did I really beat a 350Z?

I doubt it, they are making 300 bhp give or take a bit with varying years, and 270 ft-lb. It is a two seater, rwd drive car. Curb weight is around the same I am pretty sure, my friend has a stock 2007 touring and it ran a 13.8 in the 1/4. I think he was just playing with you, these cars are pretty quick.

Just a CAI like he posted.

Yeah that sounds about right, but come on a CAI and he is ahead of him entire time beating him by a half car, to a full car?

I beat a 350z from a light, and my car is slow, dude gave me the hazards on the ricer flyby, Ive never seen someone so mad before haha! If you look at video's of 350z's running the 1/4 mile they are dead slow, like 15.5's. 350z's are way over rated and over priced.

That would be best scenario, but judging by the "mashes it" hard launch and kept close I would say he wasn't at WOT the entire time. In third gear my friends 350 is already mid 80's or 90's. I just think he was playing with you dude.

I would have to disagree, my friends 2007 touring does high 13's and low 14's all day long.

Agreed they are over-rated and over priced but someone who can drive it can whomp us with just a CAI. He beat me everytime we raced and I have a 98 gtp sedan (slightly heavier than the coupe i think).

No. 13.7's are in the new ones (on paper). I beat an 03-06 they have the VQ35DE. The 07-present have the VQ35HR. The newer ones have slightly more power. The car is a boat it weight's 3,500lbs.
check out this forum the guy has an 04 z running a depressing 14 on spray...

Yeah my friend has an 07 touring. So it would have the VQ35HR. But in that his rt and 60 ft both need work. Yeah they are porkers, but if it is a newer one I doubt he did we need a bit more information then. The older coupes are considerably lighter than the 07/8's

I have a '06 GXP and I smoked a 350z (not sure if it was a turbo) it was rainign but we were only doing like 70 when I blew by him and he clearly slowed down.

Sounds like the 350z driver did not know how to drive.
From a stop is where we shine so you got lucky.

It definitely wasn't turbo lol

Finally some one else agrees, he wouldn't have been able to beat him to straight 80 by a car.

It's plausible

I wonder what my GXP would do to a 350z...hhhmmm

07 GXP
0-60 in 5.7
1/4 mile in 14.3

07 350z
0-60 in 5.2
1/4 mile in 13.7

It would depend on year, and driver but I think it would be pretty damn interesting. But an 07 350z I think you would lose, but not by much. Plus you weight 400 more pounds dude.
