Default Anyone out there reall going crazy with Drag Racing ?

My question is this, is anyone out there really trying to make their 350Z a drag/street racing car ?....By this I mean, is anyone going all out with a Drag type set-up transmission and all(TH350/400/Glide).....I'm just wondering because I know of some products that are in development and was wondering if there really are consumers out there itching to go all out down the 1/4 mile......Seeing what the Supra owners do/have done, and knowing that once built the VQ motor is incredibly stout I figure there has to be people out there that want to run 10's and lower in their Z's......Give me some feedback if you don't mind....

bluefish(dan) never went 8.33, the car/driver did....Just to clarify...

Also I believe the guys from NJ (George Ioannou & Michael Sylvestri from Racing Technology/Consulting) had ALOT to do with that....From 11's to 8's in 3 weeks....That's simply UN-HEARD of...


Props to Andrew though he did something as well

Yeah we make adaptor plate/flywheel/Driveshaft/tranny mount combos so you can run, PG, TH350/Th400. We also sell Motec Harnesses for these motors, custom equal length merge collected double slip mainifolds for them, sheet metal intake manifolds, and everything inbetween.

That's AWESOME...Not what I was asking but that's really great(pick up on the sarcasm).....Racing Technology/Consulting does almost all the same things as well, but you didn't see me posting that did you ?....I was trying to gauge interest...It seems like there is some, but maybe someone really needs to go out in a street car to get people motivated...


Thanks for bumping the thread at least...

Whatever Dan, I'm not trying to have a pissing contest, just letting people know as you where I didn't realize it wasn't a public forum or thread for that matter.

lol....I like that...I think that is the same guy who has the "only Pro RWD G35" although I don't even think the body is done for that car....I do know of a G35 Body that's been around for a little while now but that's exclusively through RTC.......I'll leave it at that....I'm not in the mood for a pissing contest either...


Carl...You wanted to let people know ?...Start a new thread...Nothing you wrote remotely had to do with what I was talking about....All you did was come into a thread I started to promote your company....Maybe reading comprehension isn't a strong suit but my post was directed towards CONSUMERS.....It's all good though, it's a public forum, you've spoken your piece and I've spoken mine.....Good day ole' chap


For those interested in the G35 Body.....Look out below....

You would think some of the major aftermarket players like Edlebrock would come out with intakes, blocks etc.....
