Default How many G's?

Will a stock 350Z pull? I hear the S2000 and Corvette are about the best out there- just wondering how we compare.

.88 is the common number I've been hearing from most test mags. I did see a couple with .89. The re040 stock tires aren't the greatest. I saw one mag that added new rubber and was able to pull .98, but they also used a camber kit.

Which mag, what rubber, and how much camber?

Here's the article . The camber they got wasn't from a kit though, it was from lowering the car.

So then its a compound effect between increased camber and a lower center of gravity right? I wonder what it'd be like with just new rubber or with rubber and camber?
