the 400whp thread inspired this question...

Has anyone on here actually hit 10 seconds on the 1/4 mile with their 350z' yet? And if so how much power was needed to do so.

 

There was a Z from SGP? running 9's

 

a 300ZX from SGP running 9's maybe. I have not seen a street 350Z break the 10's yet.

 

im sure the guys with 500+ can hit the 10s. There was someone on another thread (forgot which one though) has APS TT and a few other mods....he's at like 470whp and he ran 11 flat. So im sure the 10s are coming really soon....people need to go out to the track more!

 

Where im from u need a cage for anything under 11.99 sorry no cage goin in my baby

 

You only need a cage when you go to the track, just run your pass and come back a few weeks later

 

NHRA Rules changed this year: you need a Roll Bar at 11.50 and a Cage at 10.50

 

Well, we are at 11flat on my G35, but we made some changes and we are going today to track to see if we can get th 10's. (internal stock)

 

Are we talking street driven? Becuase there is a drag car running 8.3.

 

Street Driven

 

show pics of that drag car. and whats are its mods.

 

its a silver one, there was a vid of it a while ago

 

I dont have pics or a link sorry. Do a search!

that's not a streetable car anymore though, but very very cool.

 

I'm sure there are, however I don't see as many 350Z guys at the track as I'd expect to. And yeah 11.49 or better to need a roll bar - 10.49 for a cage.

 

I thought all tracks go by NHRA rules cuz at Infineon Raceway 11.66 faster and you need a roll bar. I guess theres no standard.

 

NHRA rules State 11.50 and faster as of 2005. Some are a bit behind in times....

that brings up another point: I still have not found a decent NHRA approved Roll Bar for the Z. Cusco and such are not under regulations and anything I have found is over 1k where as Pro-Race Car bars are around $200....

Anyone know of a place that makes affordable NHRA approved Roll Bars for the 350Z????

 

A few people certainly have enough power to hit 10's, but it will take lots of practice. Its only a matter of time.

 

Many have the power to go 10's. Unfortunately, they dont have the traction to do it....With a great launch say 1.6 60ft in a street driven Z(no weight reduction) I think 500-520rwhp would be enough, with a good driver. Fito I believe is his name has a G35(heavy) running an estimated 500rwhp and hes 11 flat right now.

 

Hey Alberto, I seen in another thread that he was going really soon, I cant remember if it was yesterday or what, but he said he was at 11 flat, 12X mph? Anyways, he was doing some tweaks that day and was heading to the track, I wonder if he went......whats his username?
