On second thought, it wasn't that big of a mistake. It was only an RSX's hp difference.

i didnt lie about my car.
whether u want to believe me or not, thats your problem.
GT30 is easily capable of 500 hp. seeing as we don't have a awd dyno any where in reno i thought i would guess. i over exaggerated a bit, and admitted to it, but about my car, i didn't lie.

and no. its my car. i bought it and paid for the parts.

and the reason i cant find any thing on this site is because every thread turns into someone getting flamed...maybe you should focus on helping people instead of being a jerk. OMGGGG HE OVER EXAGGERATED ABOUT HIS HP!! OMGGG. Who the heck doesnt. im sure most people here are guilty of that. just fricken relax.

look at the other thread .....15 WHP OF CHANGING OIL..

every response is...I DONT BELIEVE HIM...he shows a dyno slip......I DONT BELIEVE HIM..your 350z is slow if its hitting those numbers..blah blah blah...jeeez hes just trying to get some helpful responses if not, trying to help everyone else...

whatever...just delete this thread. its already useless, it was from the beginning

I got what you were saying you had a boss a$$ STi everybody wants others to think their car is Bad a$$, your STi is impressive in that is a STi.

But like the moderator stated creditibility means a lot here. This is a 350Z forum you will find more mature owners there is a lot of knowledge and know how here. As you noticed just the mention of your mods and output brought immediate negative replies. As you stated it was a mistake and it was YOUR fault for over stating the estimate and under estimating this forums knowledge base, you accept that and go on.

If you get a 350Z and mod it hopefully it will be just as nice as your STi power wise. I like the STi abilities but not its styling to Me the Z is so much more sophisticated and smoother lines. Strokes for folks no one can argue with the STi's numbers!!

Welcome a board and have fun here.

It wasn't a mistake, you deliberately lied about your number! and you told a mod to "get over it" lawlz! Having Pepboys do your brake was your first major fail prior to lying about the number, brakes are one of the tasks any automotive ethusiast should be able to do it himself/herself. Seeing what happen to your previous ride and your general attitude, I would hate to see what would happen to a Z.
Nevertheless, good luck.

You can find almost any info you need on these forums. Learn to use the search feature and you shouldn't have many questions left unanswered. Good luck.

And yeah... 600whp to 400whp is a HUGE difference.

long story short, recently got brakes replaced at pepboys for my 2005 subaru Sti, and the brakes failed during a weekend snow storm, and i rear-ended someone. the insurance is going after pepboys. Anyways...

im moving from reno nevada, to scottsdale arizona at the beginning of summer, so like june, july. i wont be needing awd ne more, so i was thinking about a 350z. It seems like an awesome car. Plus everyone here has Sti's or Evos and im just sick of them.

I really want to buy a Z for my next car. I like to do a lot of research on the car before i buy it. I know subarus in and out. My Sti had close to 400 awhp, i was running a Garrett GT30 w/ Whole Perrin setup. I miss it. But im going to have to move on. I had 3 other subarus before this one. 1 sti, 2 wrx.

Can any one tell me where i can learn alot about these cars. Stuff to do, and stuff not to do. Different mod plans. just general stuff and stuff about what mods can done to the car, since i know very little about it.
ive tried to read some of the stickies but i still feel...not very knowledgeable haha.

thanks

here are some pics since i know everyone is going to ask
hahaha

before the crash...

right click and view image to make bigger, i didnt want to flood the thread.


crash...



I am amazed that you have not gotten the standard "use the search function" diatribe.

Seriously; that will be a useful way to get information. I will say my issue with the search is that information changes as new developments come to market, so use that as a starting point. My philosophy is to start with the suspension and work your way up. I find that gives the most flexibility later on, especially if you are even thinking about Forced Induction down the road. I try not to spend money twice. I suggest you look at pics of what others have done for inspiration on body kits, wheels and spoilers. When you get your Z remember IT'S YOUR CAR. So do it the way YOU want. Just my 2c


And remember to always tell the truth and nothing but the truth....and use good grammar....and and
