Doug I am starting to notice that also about him... His only posts were in threads about other shops and are almost all hatefull comments about the shops, especially Exteme Motorwerks aka Carl Stevens..Would love to hear the meat of that story..

Must be nice to have an unlimited supply of money
oops, sorry I mixed that up with their 8 second street car which is still on the Z chassis...

Both however do run on a build VQ engine, they posted the specs a few months ago so it's more a Z than most other sportcompact cars that did engine swaps

I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one observing that.

I have heard rumors that the block in the 7 second car is a solid billet aluminum block CNC to their specs..If this is the case your looking at about $20K for the block only.

I hate on Carl and XtremeRaceCars because they are terrible business people....who have seriously screwed over customers and LIED to them and charged ooodles of $$$$$ and messed up crap.....thats my beef with them, and I'll leave it at that for the other thread

I think PM, the Rubio's, and Vinny Ten are all CLASS ACTS and are great for the NHRA SPORT COMPACT sport, which really needed them this year and they have been sorely missed....I hope they come out to the ETOWN FALL NATIONALS.....

please dont label me like that, I'm not a bad guy...obviously you dont know any facts

I dont roll with any specific crew, and I'm not biassed towards any cars...I'm a true car enthusiast....and dont hate on anyone except Xtreme because they are crooked people there, just search "XTREME MOTORSPORTS" on Supraforums and you will see.....

and yeah, Jason, formally of MRC was giving me crap, he was the guy I raced when I crashed...and Karma caught up to him....so go figuire

Please backup your statement with facts and show me one post/thread where anyone affiliated with MRC gave you crap for hitting the wall....

No, i find it incredibly appropriate to discuss if your going to make a BOLD accusation on a public forum that a memebr of MRC gave you crap for wrecking your car at the track..Jason making a comment that he would not line up against you is far from giving you crap, nor does it warrant you trying to make members of MRC, former or current look bad, regardless of your intentions..Jason has every right to not want to line up against whoever he chooses, considering the fact had your reaction time been a bit faster, you may have killed him..I personally think if your going to make comments about a vendor,shop or race team, you should have to back up your comments with facts..
So far, your posts have tried to discredit Carl, and Extreme Motorwerks, who has a legit 7 second 350z, far cry from a 13 second turbo Lexus .You say their practices are unethical, yet you show no poof from either personal experience or knowledge to back up your claims.
Then you go on to discredit MRC motorsports by making it sound as if we flamed you for hitting the wall, which is a serious thing we do not joke about..
And to finally top it off, you make all these BOLD statements on a NISSAN 305Z forum, when you dont even own a 350z.. What are your intentions and what are you doing here other than flaming other shops??
To me, this sounds like TROLL behavior..Now I suggest you rethink your comments in the future to keep from looking like a troll with ill intentions..

ummm to get back on topic....the block is not CNC'd....it is a stock 350Z motor from a 2004 350Z. We have since built to new pro cars to break into the 5's....Vinny, the crew and I will be out soon enough. Both the street car and the Pro car run the same motor and heads that we sell and install on customer's 350s. The orange car is a tube chassis but hell yo9u do what u have to do to make a name for the Z. The street tire car is street legal...just put in some carpet and you're good to go. We are now working on making some mid to low 10 second "daily drivers" with full show capabilities as well....Details on that will follow shortly!

I hope you keep the 6MT's and dont take the easy way out and run an race tranny, drive it on the street and call it a street car. I'd love to see a 10 second manually shifted Z-would be one hell of a ride, and earn my respect...

good point alberto.

Is the street car actually running a 6mt? If so what has been done to get it to hold up?

OK, time for the facts....

Carl claimed he ran a 7.30 @ 191 2 friggin years ago with his stock chassis 350z with RB26..which was total BULLCRAP...and he advertised it on his damn website that it was a fact to drum up business, when it was actually FALSE and MISLEADING..which he claimed, yet NEVER backed it up with proof....its still advertised on their damn website last I checked too

he also claimed to runna 7.80 @ 180 in his black Supra 2 years ago, again, FALSE and a LIE.....which he claimed, yet NEVER backed it up with proof....and Supraforums members called them scam artists who yet again portrayed themselves as bigtime Supra and Skyline people when all they did was rip people off and screw up cars....

Carl and Xtreme recently run the 7.30 in a tube chassis car with the VQ twin turbo, Motec, etc etc etc....and what happens? a video on youtube within 24 hours showing it happened....I gave them props for that, FINALLY, a LEGIT run with PROOF....I hate liers, and will call them out any chance I get....thats just my nature....

I have NO beef with MRC, my beef was with Jason over a small comment he made which bothered me about lining up again for a rematch, and as discussed on AIM with obviously someone else, who said he's no longer affiliated with MRC, and thus we settled it...once again, I think MRC is great, and even sent you guys some business with a 350z and FX35 friends of mine...so relax

dont hate...


i will let you drive my car one day, you will see that its not much different than yours, just shifts a little different. you know the reason i got rid of the 6MT, its just not as bulletproof as i need. i would rather have the Z32 5 speed any day of the week. that actually would be a great swap for anyone to do that wants to retain nissan tranny. that thing is solid!!


there are going to be tons of 10 second street driven Zs soon, i dont think that will be hard to accomplish, traction is the important key there. hell, you can run 10s with 500 hp all day with a 1.4 60 foot. soon my friend..
