honestly pengaru you really gotta ******* test drive a 350z...it feels lighter than a GTUs and pulls harder than a turbo 2

t2 s5 is 200 big guy



t2 = 200 hp

plus rb exhaust = 60 hp

inatake = rounded 7 hp



thats 267 hp on the t2

without including the turbo and timing tweaking



t2 = 267= lighter



350z = 280 = heavier by atleast 200 pounds



in other words



A rather good race i would say

look at this:

The test surface used for the evaluation was an asphalt surface, and it was pretty bumpy. Nevertheless, our baseline tests verified Mazda's claimed lateral acceleration for the RX-7 Turbo. With the original equipment tires and wheels, and inflation pressures of 32 psi both front and rear, the RX-7 Turbo was able to generate 0.865 g of cornering force. After we completed the modifications described above and made our tire inflation adjustments, we measured the car's final lateral acceleration at 1.0065 g. Not bad for a stocker, eh?
great write up... 1g from a tuned stock suspension with just a wheel and tire upgrade is outstanding. That is what I love about these cars. Even after 15 years, they can still compete well with today's cars in the handling dept.
