i thought this was cool. NA z making 380hp. he said 400+ at the flywheel, so im assuming the 380 is at the wheels

here

 

it would be cool if it were true. that car is not making 400 hp

 

someone PM him and tell him that he needs to stick it on a Dyno and not use the the dealer quotes on HP added for each part, LOL.

"My nismo intake gave me 15 HP....No i havent dynoed it, but the dealer says it could add up to that...."

 

Well...
I think he added the hp he freed up by saving weight off the body, crank and rotational...
ie, flywheel and pulley kits free up hp, lighter components free up hp, rims free up hp compared to heavier non-forged ones... etc etc... but it still wont add up to that amount though...
from a 10lb/hp freed up..

 

Nismo MAF and plenum? They dont even make those parts, that guy is so full of $hit he should have his nuts kicked into his stomach....

 

lmao, what an idiot.

 

Nismo does make a MAF and is part of the Nismo S1 Engine package. It is not sold in the States.

 

He will say anything just to sell the Z. But why?

 

I’d prefer to talk in terms of “drive wheel horsepower.” If a member is making 320 or 380 hp, good for them.

 

HAHHAHA THAS the biggest lie i have ever heard... only parts that dont void the warranty is the nismo intake and exhaust. Nismo plenum???? HAHA that's all bs plus that car is no where near 400 hp its prob 330 at the flywheel. lol what a joke.

 

So what you're saying is because I took of my rear wiper and removed my spare, I freed up, oh, 17 HP? I cant remember the discussion, but I dont think lighter parts, pulleys, wheels, etc free up HP, maybe make it easier for the HP to work, but to add HP by lightening parts? Doest make sense to me...

 

Those DEFINITLY are NISMO rims.....A big loser if you ask me...

 

Hey guys, listen, I've never done it before, but it feels like the right time,.....can...can...can I raise the BS flag and fly it at full-staff on this one????!!!!?!?!?!

 

maybe he is selling 2 of them?

I called BS 1st... why you little...

 

Heh, I second your call.

 

Damn with all that money he spent on those parts he could have bought a super charger then couldv'e clamied 400hp

 

I think he said that for every 10lbs you take off, you free up 1hp. So unless your wiper and spare tired weighed 170lbs, your didnt understand what he was saying.

I dont think it works that way though. What hp are you "freeing up". Is the motor magically making more power because there is less weight on the car? I have heard that for every 100lbs off = -.1 quarter mile time. That seems like it could have some truth.
