This morning i was on my way to McDs for breakfast.

I see a New 350Z with Temp tags. So I stop behind him,

because there was no open lane. As the light turned green, I figured the 350Z might play, I was taching it up

while easing on the clutch. So as we leave the light, I notice, the 350z getting on the gas as smoke comes

out its exhaust. So I WOT into 2nd. I pulled up and

next to this 350z in 2nd, and started pulling away

then into 3rd i had at least 2-3 car lengths on it.

Wasn't much of a race. So I let off then turn into

mcD's, as the 350z zooms by.



I must admit. the new 350z looks nice, but is SLOW.

Gets no respect. I hope they put some turbos in those

things, because it needs it bad.



My go fast mods:



pfc w/commander

intake

dp,mp,cb

smic

hks ignition

pullies

and etc

not trying to say you wouldn't have killed him otherwise, just wondering if that affects performance

Cool.

It would be a good race between the FD and the 350Z.

The Z has a HP advantage, but is heavier than the FD. I don't know if the HP advantage will make up for the extra weight though.

I got in it with one of those things... A nice blue one... It was quick off, but fell back as I went to 3rd gear... Pretty sweet car. But he was drooling when he caught me at the next light. We exchanged thumbs. I think it may have been a dealer car or some ****... Looked like a tech driving it....

yeah, i imagine they wrere braking it in. i seriously doubt they are going to blow a new engine on a punk kid in a 3rd gen. Thoses Z's look good, and i image if companies like mazda and others beef up the power with off shoots like mazdaspeed and SVT, nissan will step it up with nismo or something like that.
