Who cares? 287 vs 300 will never be solved since there are TOO MANY VARIABLES....

I started modding my car but cant really see a difference in performance. I recently drove my friends new 06 300 hp 350z and couldnt believe how much slower it felt than my car when it was stock. with my stock Z i was able to spin tires shifting into second and chirp into 3rd every single time (with good tires). when i drove his, it only barely chirped into second (with the same tires)... it was dissapointing. is mine a "factory freak" or is his a "lemon"?
I like to think of myself as one of the best manual transmission drivers i know in terms of shifting correctly and extremely fast. i shifted the same speed in my friends 06 as when i do in my 03 287 hp. look forward to your responses!

Not that is matters; the 300hp engine in 06' makes a little less tq. That I believe is where you are seeing the "lack" of getty up from the 287 to 300hp.
It's all about the TQ untill you want to go fast.
