No facts have been posted other than real weights of a 370z and my car that weigh identical to each other.

From what I have seen most 370's are in the 255-265 range on a DD and 280-285 on a DJ.

Put a better driver in and the HR loses hands down. I own an HR, and I'll give it up for the 370Z. It's faster.
If it was silver and we got off on exit 7, that was me.
Had no clue what car I was racing against, would've tried harder if I didn't think it was some random honda... I get it all the time from them.

Go on *******.com and they have all of the dynos you need lol most are making 285 stock and with intakes only are making 300+whp add another 30whp from the headers HFC and exhaust and you have 330whp on average and yes most are seeing 340whp like I said lol

i like how solo-350z doesn't even know basic addition and subtraction and how he keeps defending his precious "GOD" but refuses to show proof. just leave him in his fantasy world while the rest of us is here in reality

Like i said, i OWN a damn HR. I love the HR but i've lost to 3 different 370s on 3 different occasions. 370 is hands down a much better car minus the subjective looks. Interior is better, handling is better, chassis is better, power is better, tranny, every aspect of the car is better. I like my 350 better but it's a known fact that the 370 is a superior machine. Solo has like amazing persistency. He can take over the world if he wanted to it seems.

Oh and the touring package on the 370 does not add 100 lbs Solo. Repeating what i said and other have said as well, I prefer my 350z over 370 but not for the reasons that arise from the inferior complex. I just like it better - but i've come to give credit to where it's due.

Facts are facts. It doesn't weigh less and doesn't weigh more.

I am going by actual weighs of the cars that were weighed. And that is straight up accurate numbers that you can't deny.
So you have proven that car to weigh less than yours... even with more gas in it... but yet that still doesn't make it lighter than your HR...

Guys, I think we all had enough of SOLO's flames and hate so I'm going to put an end to this using SOLO's OWN words. Found here, quoted at the bottom of this post.

Ok guys, lets do some BASIC math:
350Z gas capacity = 20 gal.
1 gal = about 6 lb.
6 lb per gal x 20 gal = 120 lb

SOLO, your car weighed in at 3385 lb with "less than 1/4 tank". Lets say he's at 4 gal. Gas required for full tank = 16 gal.

4 gal = 24 lb
20 gal - 4 gal = 16 gal = 96 lb

Lets say your "Z" tube and k&n drop in added a 1 lb difference total (weight of after market parts - OEM part weights).

Total weight = 3385 lb + 96 lb - 1 lb = 3480 lb

So therefore, by your own words your 07 NISMO weighed in at 3480 lb while Forged Performance's 370Z with sports packaged weighted in at 3323 lb, if you deduct the sports package weight of about 46 lb, then the base 370Z weighs in at around...*Drum roll please*...3277 lb
OMFG that's over a 200 LB DIFFERENCE!

Therefore, if you think logically now:
332 hp (VQ37VHR) > 306 hp (VQ35HR)
3277 lb (370Z base model) < 3480 lb (your 350Z NISMO)
GOD < Your Ignorance

So YOU tell me my math is wrong

btw: Computer/Software Engineer < Mechanical Engineer

*Edit: no offense to any of you other computer/software engineers out there

This time the condtions were 80 degrees~, 70%~ humidity.

14.3735 at 98.08 mph 2.1669 60ft

14.4698 at 98.79 mph 2.2032 60ft.

Links to the rest of the timeslips are here.

The laucnh and the car just either spins or bogs, I could not find the right point to get her to work well still.

Only mods are Z-tube and K&N drop in. Car weighed in at 3360 without spare, before with spare the first time at the track I went I had a full load it weighed in at 3385. Both times were less than 1/4 tank of gas of 93 octane.

Slips.

follow theintimmydator experiences and just enjoy the car you have and not hate the new Z

cuz you know, i could say the same thing about the 350z's body how it's like a copy of the 7 gen celica's, but that's just way far out there, kinda like your ignorance.

Proof? I posted proof. 370z weight above of a actual car 3323, and my car actually weighed above 3324. How much more proof do you need? Get out of your dream world and learn to read.

But my car is one of the heaviest under the Touring. So what are you trying to say?

1 lb difference. Now my car suppose to weigh 3350~. The 370z per Forged was 3323 for a base with sport. Put a touring that puts it heavier than my car. Put a base 350z or enthusiast it is lighter than the 370z.
