Hey guys.... i was just wondering if my stock Z could take a 5.0 with minor mods, i say no more than 300 hp... theres this guy at my school who wants to race me n he keeps buggin me to race me. one time he even wrote with shoe paint, "ricer V.s muscle" "hahahaha", eggrole n all that junk all over my car. Dont worry guys i showed my Z pride n i took off his mustang n put a Z emblem, n i i chained his car to a tree n i put some 10lb of rice in his front seat its all in good fun... but seriously what would yall suggest my doing, im willing to buy upgrades but i really dont wanna like do anything major.

Go get yourself a cheap and basic nitrous setup and you will wax him easy. Of course to be fair you need to tell him that you used nitrous but not until after the race. The look on his face will be priceless...

If used in moderation and properly nitrous is pretty safe...

why not just race him and see what happens? If he beats you then start modding (even though you should just start modding anyway). Get an intake and exhaust if you have the cash. It may just come down to a drivers race, assuming both are manuals. I can't believe that this redneck thinks a Z is rice... friggan white trash

Tell that redneck that his P.O.S. mustang isn't worth not only a race with you, but the gas that he puts in it. For good measure tell him the only women he could pick up driving that would be missing teeth...all in good fun of course.

Go the the drags, race your buddy, and posts time slip here. Let me see how you do. That will give you a starting point. Any recommendations now are just poop in the wind.
