Raced my friends Rustang...
I raced my friend modded GT Mustang its a 2001 coupe 5 spd with full exhaust intake and cams.... we raced twice from a stop the first time he said i took off first so we went again at a light.. i let him go then i took off and i still beat him buy about 1 car length.. then he told me he could take me from a roll so we went twice from a roll..i we were nose to nose but i was slowly pulling on him (very slowly) but i am happy i just have an injen CAI and resonator off ( i also have a touing the heaviest Z model i beleive)

I would be interested in finding out what intake and cams he has since if he can't beat a basically stock 350Z with them I want to stay far away from those parts.
Most of the guys that I have seen do those type mods are in the 280 - 290 RWHP range and that should be able to take a stock 350Z especially from a stand still. Either way nice kill and anything can happen on the street. See if you can find out more info on his mods I am really interested in knowing.
Thanks

This is an honest question NOT a flame

I'd like to see you guys hit the local track and get some REAL numbers. Find it hard to believe that your friend just totally bypassed other significant mods, such as gears. By intake do you mean a bullitt intake or cold air intake? Nice run, tell your friend to get rid of the car cuz he can't drive it for what it's worth.

After you guys told me about the cams i talked to my friend and told him that i read up on it and that there are no cams ( i was bsing ) and then he told me he didnt have any he just told ppl he didnt he felt really stupid and i saw his intake its the cold air one that goes into the fender and i know he has an exhaust because he car is VERY loud he said he has a full custom exhaust.. on another note a GT smoked the **** out of me this weekend on the freeway i guess it was modded he was a cool guy.

I never understood why someone would claim to have more done to their car then they really do. I can maybe (I still thing this is stupid) see sandbagging and not giving out all their mods but to say they have more then they have is stupid, especially if you end up racing the person you lied to.

What if I said I smoked a 350Z by 6+ cars and the driver said he had a Supercharger with a 12lb pulley, headers, and fully built motor? Would you not have any questions?
The Mustang guys had very valid questions, and asked them very tactfully, all the while saying "good kill". Anyways, it turns out the Mustang did not have an aftermarket cam, making those Mustang questions very important. This thread was very cordial between the Mustang guys and Z guys, exchanging very good information, and congratulations before you stepped in.
Seems like the only one trolling is you.
Peace
