Nismo 350Z At Track
Today me and my friend went to the track, and we saw two Nismo 350Z's. One was a stock Red, the other a White with a turbo kit on it. The first race was the Red versus an '04 Sti, the Nismo ran a 13.408 sec. quarter mile and the Sti ran a 13.514 sec. quarter mile, the Sti messed up on the start, but finally hooked up quick with AWD. and the Nismo had a slightly bad two-three shift, and it almost cost him, but he pulled out the win. The next race was the White Nismo turbo (I'm not sure what kind of turbo) versus a '99 Supra Twin Turbo w/ other mods. The White Nismo ran a 12.415 quarter mile and the Supra ran a 12.938 quarter mile. They both launched good, the Supra had a bad one-two shift. Overall both were fun races we mey up with the guy with the Red Nismo, he said he loves it, and I told him about this forum, and he said he'd definetley look it up and maybe join! The guy also said that before we got there, there was a stock Black Nismo that lost to a turbo Eclipse, but we didn't see it so I don't have times or results, sorry! But overall a good race day for the Nsimo's, from what I saw!

Except for mine.They don't have a turbo kit for the HR motor yet, so not sure what that white one was, but it wasn't a nismo. Doubt it was a home grown kit.

Already turboing a NISMO? Say bye bye nice, new car warranty. And I think they missed the point of the car...I was hoping you saw it at a road course, not a drag strip. I guess it's nice to see how the new HR motor performs though. That's a solid 13.4...not shabby.

Like I said I met up with the stock Red Nismo, and there is no doubt his was a Nismo. But I must say the White one looked legit and if it wasn't I don't know how he got it to look identical on the exterior! But like I said I can't say for sure, but I was under the impression that they have kits for '07 Z's but I may be wrong. Either way the Red was good enough for me, he did fairly well especially considering his mistake!

Not sure about that white one, but it's not a nismo.
