Default "The Unicorn" 470 hp Fontana Nissan Racing 350Z is for Sale!!!



This car is one of my favorite 350Z of all time. And It is one of the best of the best NA setup 350Z which included the powerhouse Nismo 380RS Competition and SGM Sasha 350Z. I would pick any of these 350Z over 500-600 whp boost 350Z without question.

It was introduced back in 2009 Redline Time Attack trial.

Fontana Nissan 350Z vs THMotorsports STi 2011 Redline Time Attack.

I don't know what the price tag is, but I think it might be cheaper than the Nismo 380RS Competition price tag of $175k.

Race junkies, here is your chance to own a fully track built race car 350Z from Fontana Nissan.

Wow, I have seen that car in action several times and it is awesome!

I wonder if the guys/gals at Fontana Nissan moving on to the 370Z or just race their GT-R's?

Edit: That Firebird Phoenix track race was awesome to watch!

Gah, those stats are brutal. 123.68hp/liter is pretty close to the veyron's 125hp/liter and the veyron has 4 turbos helping out.

Can't forget the eng was also moved 9 inches back for better balance. The pick up point for the suspension is also moved up for better roll center. It's a Unitech car just like the SG car

I would love to just move my motor back 3 inches.

Its probably got super high compression.

Edit, just checked. 13.3:1 compression.

At that ratio, I believe pump gas will not do for this car unless there are some special settings that allow for it. Having race gas with that compression ratio is what gets that hp figure.
