Well I want some feedback on this lol
My buddy and I went to a local drag strip and I raced my 03 350z.
I, the driver, weigh 300lbs... And my friend, the passenger, weighs 313.
I have a K&N Drop in filter, and a Stainless y-pipe back exhaust. (5AT)
I ran 15.5 @90, in manual shift, traction off. Is this pretty good with 613lbs of people? lol
I plan on bringing it back down there, I'd say I would be in the 14s without a passenger.

Extra notes, it was 89 degrees at 1800ft elevation.

 

I would say no, honestly. A g35 is capable of running, with equivalent parts (that you mention), low 14's with the same overall weight; mid to high 14's with the average driver and equivalent parts (that you mention).

I've seen a completely stock g35 (3500lbs), but 6mt, run 13.9.

Osiris would help you out a bit....maintence (plugs, clean filter, ect.)?, tires? Trans upgrade? skill?

 

btw the number I have heard is: add .1 secs for every 100lbs. So you should only be .5secs (a driver must weigh at least 100lbs!) away from its capability. 15.0 secs sounds a bit high, unless your car is in need of some maintence to get some pep back.

 

It has almost 130k on it lol But new belts, all new fluids. Only maintenance im lacking is spark plugs, but they are still fine.

 

I dont feel bad about it though, cause there was a guy there racing by himself in a 2006z 6 speed, he ran 14.9.

 

Oh, and for the skill... Yes, I do have that. lmao

 

^ well thats just a god awful driver.

 

Wow lol

I'm speechless

 

Not necessarily, Ive heard that the track I went to can add .5s to a run. Apparently it isnt the best.

 

somebody's in denial

 

No sir

 

Your run=15.5sec-.5sec(600lbs in passengers/ 500lbs more than 100lbs driver @ 100lbs/.1sec)=15.0sec
The 14.9sec did better if all variables were equal.

 

what skill is needed to drag an automatic car?

 

Did I say I had skill because I drive an auto? No. Idk why people are hating, I guess its because most of you have to work tomorrow lol

 

i'm off tomorrow

- completely random, but how tall are you?

 

6' 1"........ Whhhhyyyy? lol

 

Ill repost when I go back by myself, im sure it will do ~14.7.

 

I went before, I had a oem dirty air filter, stock exhaust, and lacking a lot of maint.
I ran 16.3 with my same buddy in the car, went back and raced by myself and got a 15.58.
Also, the right side radiator fan wasnt spinning. Thats around .8 difference. So with it running so much better, 14.7 is a good number imo.

 

Maybe, but at the same time, 14's isn't exactly bragging territory. Its just a number, but even so, not that great for a 350. I ran a 15.0 in my 1.8L Passat (same weight as Z).

 

14s is bragging territory at this track. No BS, people run a little slower there.
