The "haters" have not ruined the thread cause VRT has toned down their approach since their first post, but if you want to start again then I will contribute. What ever happened to VRT saying they didn't care for dyno queens? All of a sudden now they want to go for big power after talking smack to everyone else for wanting to do it.

+1 thier work i never really questioned, but rather thier marketing approach that turned me off by them.

Can you blame them for experimenting? Their market is very small, and if permitted, anyone would try to shoot for a balanced machine. Its not like they're going for 800whp and noting else...they're going for a fully balanced track machine..that also has 800hp..

WA2GOOD posted that quote in October not me. The only reason I posted it is because og35coupe or whatever he s/n is startede chit. If they wanted to experiment they shouldn't have bashed everyone else going for big power cause now they are going for it as well.

Anyway this is the last post I make about this. Let mraturbo get back on topic......800whp.

YOU KNOW. The original Hating Helped Bring VRT Into the Light. THANKYOU.

HOWEVER, MY Car, Grey 2003 G35C, isn't a Dyno Queen or Anything Close to a Drag Car....NOT at all.

NOTE: I was, with multiple VRT clients, at Laguna Seca (cool track yet raining and lame 9.5 hour drive each way from SD) two weeks ago, Willow Springs this past week passing a Nismo Tuned Skyline and a new Viper at 160 MPH, and California Speedway TODAY Passing a new ZO6 and Carrera GT (very sick car BTW if you haven't seen once in person).

Just got back from Cal Speedway...For the Time Attack. See photo below of my car if you haven't been Passed By It LATELY.

Ill try to get video and picts. Eagle, Native1 and 350ZNV were there as well and it was kick ***. 350ZNV (Project Double Down) won the time attack after we changed his rear Springs and rear tire set-up. Very proud of my boy. Awesome MB...

Also - Eagles White G35 was shot for a magazine feature in C16 today.

So to repeat - I DO NOT HAVE A DYNO QUEEN NOR Do I Have a Drag specific Car.

And will prove this statement with confidence to anyone who wants to join us at Spring Mountain in three weeks and show you how to pitch, throw, drift, slip, boost, and SIMPLY - blow by cars with all of my car's 700 WHP.

In addition, we just changed the Cams a Third time to make even more and will be on JWTs Dyno this next week to hit that 800 WHP. We will try to make 800 - 1000 WHP ASAP...And YES I will still race it at a track event near you soon. LOL...

FYI, Still A LOUD Cheerleader for a perfect 500WHP/550TQ car. 700+WHP is too much to handle and very $$$ to maintain. For 99% of everyone, IMO, 500 WHP/550 TQ is PERFECT and if you can drive that to the limit and have solid traction, you can rule the Road and Track.

Thanks Again For Hating At First...It just made us try harder!
Good luck.

Oh okay Gman. Sorry about that. BTW, sweet cars here.. I wish i was makin some real dough! Note to self: don't buy nice cars when ur just a college student.

well I was just using that as a term because that's what you guys kinda implied back in October when VRT posted they didn't care about big power. I was not implying that you had a dyno queen. All I am trying to say is that others can have big power and put on a nice suspension to have a well rounded car as well.

As far as power I personally drive my car around at 5.5psi and sometimes put it on 10psi. I do have a 16psi but hardly use it. 10psi is more than enough. I wanted to go for more power, but I think I am just going to keep it as is. Went to go look at a Concept 27' sport/fish boat with a 250 Mercury Verado (supercharged) this weekend so I think I am going to start spending my money else where and buy more toys.

mraturbo, what IC is that, doesnt look like the JWT IC.

An Old Custom one using Spearco as a core. I had this front end with huge hole space to fill so I used this old IC from one of my previous SFR demo one off kits. We tweaked the piping and it works well by filling my front noise space.

Car looks good Mike.


Come by the shop sometime and check out my new G. We built a 2.5" true dual exhaust w/HKS HI/TI mufflers.

sheesh...I'm not a big hp guy but I get a little tired of the back and forth.

Sharif had it right...the market is PLENTY big for everyone. I agree that the spike was unusual. Maybe the clutch caused problems and the car was actually putting down more power. Who knows...

And as for money...let's not bore the Z community with posts about "what we can buy". My chitty 266 n/a whp shouldn't be confused with the amount of money and/or investments in my accounts. That's a fact.

If you are refering to me I wasn't trying to show off what I can buy. I was simply stating that I am no longer going for big power as I had previously wanted to and instead was looking into buying a boat. mraturbo posted he that would like to see the boat so I posted pictures.

I am very proud of the money you have in your accounts/investments, but don't bore with me that. Also don't let my almost 600whp FI confuse you with how much money I have socked away either.

If you weren't refering to me that forget what I have posted.
