Yes, it is.

I think some inports can be cool if they are not riced out my friend has a 1987 supra mkIII 3.0 with a single turbo he rebuilt the motor replaced the supension the tranny he rebuilt and he got a bigger turbo and rebuilt that aswell he dynoed in at 340rwhp and 330rwtrq and all together he spent 5200 bucks 2400 on the car and the rest on parts. I think his car is fun as hell when we race we are really close i have won and so has he. Plus his targa top is badass.

Its not even close. The LS1 is 100 times the motor the shitty Nissan "VQ" could ever be. There's about a full second difference between an M6 LS1 and an M6 350Z, stock for stock. A full bolt on LS1 vs. a full bolt on 350Z isn't even worth watching. Huge difference there buddy.

stock vs stock 350Z '06 (300hp) and TA (345hp)... is a close race. :ughlaugh: of course TA wins not by much. not talking mods or anything else there bud ;)

No, it really isn't there buddy.

See, to start off with, both cars weigh about the same, F-body is slightly more give or take.

The new 350Z (300HP) puts down about 250HP at the wheels. A stock M6 LS1 puts down about 290WHP. Not only that, but the LS1 also has the much more flexible and better overall powerband. Its a V8, the Nissan is a V6. Not to mention the F-Body has a solid rear axle and is already set up for straight line racing, so both drivers being equal the F-Body will get the launch.

I've never had a 350Z run anywhere close to me. On the highway we're talking multiple carlenghts.

Yep.. same here... I think I talked about him earlier.. but douchebag in town with all kinda of stickers on his black one was being an ass.. revving.. and speeding up and slowing ddown next to me... till I finally said fuck it.. and waited till he hit it and so did I... and it was a no-contest match... several car lengths before I baked offf and braked.. then he did the ricer flyby with no look... and that was when I was stock.... wonder what I would do to him now.. :D

they're not as slow as you think. but 2-3 few car length 0-100mi/hr I'm thinking, they are M6 and an A4 stock TA would pull on them by a few cars only.

Umm...I beg to differ.

I've raced plenty of them, and I've seen other cars race them as well. Its a low 14 second car, high 13's if you're lucky. On the highway, and LS1 will rape a 350Z. I've seen Cobalt SS S/C's with an intake hang with 350Z's from a roll, they aren't that fast at all.

Ok guys i just settled it on my lunch break i raced a 2006 350z m6 on my lunch break which was about 2:00pm-3:00pm central time today so about 2and a half hours ago it was pulling off a nissan lot. I work on a large 3 lane street we both came up to the lights and it was a n employee driving he reved so did i, we looked at eachother the light turn green we both hit it. through first gear i got my rear bumper past his front, through second maybe a car through third almost 3 i would say, i stopped at the top of 4th. Right before i let off i looked back and he was about 5 or 6 behind me then he flew by me at 110+ as i was slowing down.

5 cars is like .3sec 1/4mi wise... not too bad.

It says the 06 runs a 13.8 in the quarter.

'06 they run 13.6 in quarter mate. the '04-'05 run 13.8-13.9

When it comes down to that its about the driver .2 or .3 faster, i ran a 13.2 in the quarter mile in my car.

Thats one person's numbers, not the end to end all.

I've never seen a 350Z run better than 13.8 at the track. And that was with a bunch of mods. They are not fast cars.

Now it seems like there's maybe a fifth or less driving around town. I see some WRX's and some turbo charged eclipse's around but not a honda accord or civic "tricked" out at every light.

That's probably because they all blew their engines trying to keep up with the LS1's.

I think its cause they realized that there moms lexus and BMWs were faster than there cars, and if your moms taurus wagon is faster than yours, your not all that much of a street racer.

I wouldnt even waste my gas!

you're still talking about the 04-05 350Z, my coworkers '04 350Z did 13.8x at the track last summer. read up on it bud... the new ones are a bit faster they can pull 13.6 stock really unless a shitty driver which it don't matter what car they drive they're still shitty drivers ;)

both cars are nearly the same exact weight only his has 287 horse and yours is closer to 350....race him from a highway roll if u really wanna embarass him :D

oh I did already, raced him Nov '05 when I was stock, and he bought his a year before. had 4-5 cars on him by 110mi/hr, again he's M6 I am A4. a guy LS1 M6 that knows how to shift while racing would eat him by another 1-2 cars on top.
