Default Run With the Ferrari 360...CONT

https://my350z.com/forum/forced-induction/200009-350z-vs-ferrari-360-a.html

FYI

Here is the (Cont.)

We went to Willow Springs yesterday to TEST the theory...VQ35 built and TT to compete with the 360 Ferrari AT THE TRACK.

We drove the Ferrari...It is SO BEAUTIFUL.

The Gear Box is AMAZING...Zero to 60, 0-100, Hot...

Just isn't as fast as my G or what we can do for the $20k range with your Z...Yet the interior is incredible.

Well, I'm back. Patience is a virtue. Good work on the trials at the track (although not as originally stated). What were the actual time results?

First and foremost, I would like to say that I am a JDM purist. That is why I personally decided to go with a GT-R instead of a Porsche 996-997 or Ferrari 360/430. Never the less, I appreciate and respect both aforementioned examples. Yes, I also like the Z-06. I don't have any animosity toward the Z/G or any of their respective owners. I own a built and boosted Z as well. I have lost count on how may of these cars I have built for customers. On to the point.

The original post stated:

"Hi, what turbo kit and tune i need to beat a ferrari 360 modena on the race track an still have a daily driven car. Can somebody answer my question please?"

Further it was expanded to:

"With at least $20,000 into your Z and you will be killing anything at the track depending on your skills."

mraturbo:

"If you want performance, you will need at least $20k as a package and NOT JUST A TURBO KIT, for with just that Mod you still will not have a complete car for world-class performance."

USED:

"I have to call you out on this one. All that for $20g???? Seems unlikely."

mraturbo:

"Send the Money and you will get what you are asking for..."

............................................................ .............................................

O.K., I've been hard at work behind the scenes as usual. I have at my disposal, a bone stock 350z and a check for $20k. I also have at least 3 360 Modenas to provide services.

Here's my proposal:

I will delivery you a bone stock 350z and a check for $20k. Regardless of the outcome of the event. I get to keep the 350z with all the upgrades that I paid for. You provide the press. I want an itemized spec sheet of all parts/labor/services at real retail publicly displayed on this forum prior to the track day. Everyone can review and post their opinions/experiences on the build sheet.

We will have a 3rd party (professional driver) we both agree upon to drive both cars. He will only take the cars to reasonable limits (ex. no overheating/no overboosting/ of course, pump gas-no meth/water inj). The cars should be tested in all the usual test (dyno, 0-60, braking distance, etc.) as well as the short twisty track and high speed track.

Some items must be kept equal. For instance, if the Z is on race compound tires/pads, so is the 360. If the Z is off cats, then so is the 360. In fairness to the basis of this thread, both cars should be in street trim. The original post said "daily driver".

I can provide the Z. I can provide the $20k budget. I can provide the 360. You build the car and provide the press. This will be awesome.

Don't mis-judge me. I am NOT in the Ferrari corner. I am NOT in the Z corner. I just don't believe this can realistically be accomplished on a $20K budget. That was my original and only point.

so what about wheels, tires, guages, suspension, and exhaust? Like i said before in the other thread, i'm sure there are potential customers that would bite on this is indeed true. to me 25,000 dollars isn't 20,000 dollars, ya know. not trying to sound like a d*ck but i get tired of all these companies making outrageous claims and not being able to answer the simplest of questions. all i wanna know is.......if 20,000 dollars will get you modena beating rims, tires, turbo kit, tuning, suspension, and brakes? and please include your labor rates, which in california should be 80 plus an hour. if you cannot or willnot provide an estimate, i guess i can scour the web and come up with some numbers of my own.

I have no doubt these cars can do everything vrt says they can, but just not for 20 grand. if i'm wrong, post up your price list and i'll shut up on this thread. ooooooh, you're not even boosted, my bad. just to get you up to speed, USED isn't saying that a modded 350z couldn't keep pace with a modena, he's saying that you can't do it for the price they say.

Don't get it wrong. I want to be in VRT's corner too. I work on the VQ FM platform everyday. I just can't see it happening on a $20k budget. Not for everything promised.
