Congrats on the time. Its nice to see more 350z's running fast at the track, especially a supercharged one. Turbos make it too easy with all that torque...

I too actually have a stock block VQ35 with a vortech in the 11's, but mine is an S-trim, and its not in a 350z.

same car in my signature. 1996 maxima, stock fwd VQ35DE with ebay jdm cams. The car is around 3100lbs with me in it. The car doesn't make any torque, but it pulls pretty good up to 7k rpm. I have trapped 123mph, but only been an 11.69 in the 1/4 mile.

Good job! Way to represent for the S/C crowd, it's sad more people dont do that with S/C, and especially ST/TT kits. How much power does the car make? That 1/8 trap is the best Ive seen for any S/C setup....

Nice time, but a 03' touring doesn't weigh 3450lbs, I've weighed mine countless times at the track; it's about 3200 without spare and jack and me in in it.

it will weigh around 3400 once you add the vortech setup and other mods at the bare minimum.

Awesome times man. Most SC times I've seen made me think it would be a waste of time to buy one but this definatly makes me think twice. My 04 touring Z weighs 3280 with me in it.
