ACTUALLY, it has 321hp under the old SAE rating, remember?
And the dyno can prove it too. Of course the power to the wheels will be less.
Peace!

I can find out if he can't. I have several friends in the motortrade in the UK. Only trouble is the exchange rate which is roughly $2 for every pound sterling at the moment.

Those keys wont work for our Z over here. They use a different frequency. Sucks. Do a search.

I don't think so. Under old ratings the Z had 300 hp and under the new rating we have approx 293. That still equals a 13 hp difference. I say approximately because 07 G coupe which I believe was the same as the 06 G coupe had 298under old ratings. Therefore the comparison between the Z from 06 to 07 is somewhere between an 11-13 hp. Please show me the error in my logic if its wrong.

Actually, for the average joe, it is tough living in England. The wages are so low compared to over here. Thats why I moved here. I could never have afforded to buy and run a Z in England.

Actually, the rest of the world uses 0-100 Kilometers Per Hour to test for off the line speed. That makes it 0-62 MPH in 5.7 sec. Those extra 2 MPH could account for at least 2 tenths of a second.
