Good run! The 350Z's are heavy, tall, and must have a flywheel weighing 50lbs.
drive into a brick wall @70mph with an FD, and if you survive, do the same with 350z, you'll get out and cough





there is a reason why all new cars are heavy :crash protection standards, stop ******* complaining how they are heavy

Yea, that's true.. safety first, but I think he was simply comparing other cars to the FD.. I mean the lightness is one key aspect to the FD's quickness and maneuverability.

I live down the street from the Nissan dealer. 350Zs are overpopulating my neighborhood. The good thing about it is a properly running stock Fd will spank them every time. Mine has a down pipe. The best kill is catching sales people driving out of the dealership on test drives with perspective buyers. Invariably the salesperson will driving off the lot to beat the **** out of these new cars to show the buyer what they can do. It's a crack up when you spank a brand new sports car with the Z's old nemesis the Rx-7. I wonder if this kills the sale?
