I think I spotted one silver 350z still there.
dood you're there 24/7 aren't you? haha

He has an APS setup with more than enough little goodies to back it up. Doesn't really matter to me if it's a 700hp Z cause it was a nice car either way. Come out next weekend and check it out. It should be there.
I'll be out of town this week, but i'm probably gonna check this out next weekend. I know it's not your car, the "not to call you out" thing was just so i didn't seem like a d!ck for being skeptical about the 700whp claim.

The owner of that Z is Marin and his car is very fast. I have had a ride in it from Ted ( owner of SP ). The car is boosting 22 psi with a built bottom end, cams, H2o/Meth Injection and 100 octane tune. O yeah his Z was also was modded to rev to 8000 rpm. Don't be too skeptical about that power...My car on 100 octane tune @ 13 psi made 513 rwhp and 478 rwtq.

Marc beat me to it, that 700hp claim is probably pretty accurate, it looks close to stock, last pic I saw of the car it had a veilside lip and nismo rims and its a silverstone isnt it? BigBri told me about this car a couple months ago, I dont think the owner is a member here and is keeping a pretty low pro, for right now I hope


Marc nice numbers!! Your car is officially BEAST status haha! We gotta meet up again, next time with more peeps, later bro!

I must say that is a trip that Marin is selling the car now. It seemed just about "complete" with one of the last mods being the car reving to 8k rpm and 22 psi tune.
As crazy as it sounds...could it be possible that he could not get the power out of the car he was wanting?? We have awesome cars but as far as super big hp ( 800whp+) there is other easier options to achieve this. Our cars are so new that it has taken considerable "pioneering" from SP alone just to get Marin's car where it is currently. There are limits. Myself I want a built bottom end for reliability not "suicide" power!!

As soon as I have time to get my "limp" mode issue (just don't sound right) fixed I am down for another meet. I believe my car would make for a more "entertaining" match against Brian's ride

Um, I believe the VW guys started the meet and from there started asking others to join. Now there is a good mix of cars.
