CAI
Headers
Injectors

and the z prob didn't have headers.... that would be such a pita to do and not even do exhaust or anything....
Why would a stock 350z have "injectors" ???
CAI and headers can also lose power on stock Z's...

Just PM MC the admin and call him a douchebag or something like that. They should take care of your membership for you at that point.

hmm, I'm new here...
But I'm just curious as to why everyone hates on these types of threads. Is it a repost?

I'd be curious to know what cars are in our class range in the 1/4, which are a little behind but are at our level with mods, which are infront of us until we get mods, etc.

You could look all the statistics up online I'm sure, but it's more fun to have a thread and chat up about it imo.

There's this button that reads "Log Out"...

Click it and run away with your tail between your legs.

There is a thread that lists all the top 10 or 20 1/4 times for all classes of Z. Compare those to other cars.

The reason everyone hates on these threads is because all these things have been posted a billion times. But as the Z gets older and more affordable, it tends to fall into the hands of stupid high school kids (OP) who don't do a search and just needlessly post another stupid thread about benchracing rather than do a search and read one of the many many threads comparing the Z to countless other cars.

+1. Especially the Nismo versions. They're new body kit is made out of 1/4" thick fiberglass and adds a lot of weight.

I should have spent a little extra and bought a brand new RSX-S.

he stated that he thinks a Z can beat a GTI and is asking if it can maybe beat the "Rabbit edition"...... i pity him if he's talking about the VW Rabbit and is suggesting that it may be faster than a Z

And there's a seperate section for track and autocross as well...

Hmm, theoretically, all topics will have been covered eventually and new posts will be impossible! :P

Anyways, I think it'd be a nice resource (and pretty sweet) if there was a post or a wiki page with a list or something that looked like this: (Just an example, not using actual times)


Stock 1/4 times:

corvette 13.2
WRX STI 13.5
350z 13.9
SRT4 14.2
R32: 14.4

Just to get a lay out and have all the numbers in front of you. Is there anything like this on the forum? The internet mob mentality is pretty funny though...

You are super-exciting. Look; I'm excited.


And I don't know 'bout anyone else, but I am entertained, I am having fun, and I find this very edumacational.
