The funny thing is i actually seen a 07 Z today yeaaaaaaa man it had no plates it was the new metallic black it had 2 people in it on i4 looked like a test drive, I was right behind it and we both punched it. All i got to say is it sounds nice. But ill save the rest for when one comes to the meets so i can make a proper vid or account. Cause street racing isnt really a good benchmark. OR i would be really unimpressed lets just say. I cant wait to have one of the guys in orlando get one. Cause the one i met was kind of a sore loser we should say. I gave him the thumbs up and got the yea whatever look. I wish i was driving it that way i can race the million 287 and few revups i see around here lol. Will people buy these things damn. lmao. They def sound more aggressive then my revup but the pull wasnt exactly what i expected considering by the time we caught up to traffic i was right next to him and i started behind him while he gunned it first. I did notice a plume of smoke come out his exhaust. Looks like just as the 06s they seem to run a little lean. A assumption of course. If the owner is on the boards...i would love to set something up. And nice run. No need for the rudeness. And the hood looks good people i dont see whats the issue with that.

Why do most ppl think the RevUp is the fastest of the VQ35DE?

I dont see too many RevUps...

So because I enjoy a car, and bought it twice? That makes me a bad person or what?

HAHA you got me good!

Perhaps I can afford to buy the car twice? And my 07 is completely paid off?

So because I am a Z enthusiast and I enjoy the Z car(s), I am a bad person because I bought the same model car?

Your making a ton of sense...

who cares which is faster? We all drive the same car, if your not happy with the speed, get a diff car. There will always be faster models coming out, just as the 07 will shortly be out-throned , as it is only inevitable.

I have an 06, and it's not a big deal if the 07 is faster or not, my car is still damn fast.

The Dual intakes give nice gas mileage. and i will bet u 50$ paypal that the 07's will gain more through 2 pop chargers, than 1 on a single intake 06.

People claim the curb weight is much higher... But what did everybody say about hte 06 saying it would be way heavier? come to find out, it was barely heavier than the previous.
by looking at several of your posts i can tell how ignorant you are. BTW, what happen to our forum rule? hey moderator, maybe it's time to show this dude some real action.

not many people have them and are trackign them like there like the 287 which are the majority. But i will be changing that. I doubt u will see any HRs for a long while on there also. SO its not a matter of saying there not faster becasue the revups top end is faster then the 287 . But 1/4 i think the times are simlilar if not the same. The mods to the revup to me show a top end preferred setup compared to the 287. As shown in other threads past high speeds it passes the 287 , though down low its comparable. This is odd considering you have more tq right lol. Remember its only 30% more then the current reg 287 so its a tuned difference. Top end i believe is where they shine. And there are no times for that.BEcasue we don thave top end tracks. lol

The RevUp has been out for 2 years how much more time do they need?

I agree the RevUp has higher top end power but what races start at a 35mph and end at 130mph? Besides street racing?

I'm on my second Z too... My first was an 04 touring, now driving an 06 gt... Wouldn't drive anything else except a Z! :-)
The 04 makes more torque than the 06, but the 06 pulls harder above @ 4k rpms...

Very true... All Z's are fast enough to wrap you around a telephone pole in .01 of a second if you don't respect it.

Not to get to far off the subject but we had a dyno day with 10 Z's and all of the 287 hp 03-05 dynoed higher across the board than the 06 Rev ups. There was alot of disapointed people. The cars all had more or less the same mods. Even an 06 with every nismo part you could buy I/H/E/cams/flywheel and only came in 4th for peak hp/tq.

Flame suit on
