Exactly, this can be said about any car/make/model. You take the same idea and make it better. The trend for the VQ motor has always been about progression. Although, the story for some cars say otherwise like the RX7 to RX8, but these are on different platforms. The VHR "IS" the most improved version of the VQ.

good now could we please move beyond the 350z v. 370z debate, the Cobalts are laughing at us. Frankly it's not other Z's that bother me on the roads, it's usually a G that's tailing me.

So, has anyone run a faster *stock* time in a 370Z yet? Just asking.

Unfortunately a lot of the guys hitting the 1/4 mile track instantly throw on HFC or something.

your basic bolt ons, but it was the 4.08's that really set it off

the 370z.com has a whole thread dedicated to it. You can see stock times on a variety of tracks and drivers as well as bolt on times.

I read through the 370Z site and found very few times, none of which were faster so far.

I think we have a shortage of 370Z owners at the drag strip. I use to say the same of 350Z owners.

If I had a 370Z, I would already have 100+ passes.

it shouldn't be about HR, DE v. VHR, there are many other car makes that come after us. Hell I always give a thumbs up to every Z I see, problem is many 350z owners pretend I'm not there.

Someone needs to loan you a stock one so you can set the bar.

Don't you have a contact at Gwinnett that can loan you a used one or something?

Come on guys... stop arguing. Stock for stock the cars run nearly the same times. Both on average get low 13 to mid 13 seconds in the quarter mile. A bolt on HR will most likely win though. With just highflow cats and exhaust plus a tune, it will pull on the 370z pretty well. THERE ARE PLENTY OF VIDEOS AS PROOF. but stock for stock its a driver's race. Handling is a different matter, but my hr 350 handles fine enough for me. Look at it this way.. you can get an HR Z for around 18-20k, or a 370z for 25-30k, but is it work 5-7k to go maybe a tenth of a second faster?
