uhmm no. a freind of mine has an 03 350z with a SRI and i dont walk all over him at all. As a matter of fact, its just about dead even

Get an intake and you will walk all over him.

CAIs alone will give the MS3 an significant edge, as far as power goes. Highway runs won't even be competitive.

EDIT: That pertains to the pre-07 Zs by the way. I think an intake-equipped MS3 will still edge out an 07 Z, but it'll be more of a driver's race.

I'll report back as soon as I get my own chance :D
 
Does a cai make any difference? i raced MS6Mike with his cai vs my stock modded sri, and it was pretty much dead even, with me winning a few runs more than him (driver mod). Maybe it was cuz it was 70 degrees and it just isnt the cai's best temp to work on...i dont know. there really isnt any excuse. But that would definately would be a good run.

have one already and ill stick to my original answer....uhmm, no.
 
Not my proudest moment but I tooled a G35 on the highway... I couldn't resist and I try not to speed, I really do, but it just happens. Coming from a P5 that on the highway is entertaining only through imagination to something that just goes whenever you want is fun. I have always loved the Z series, past and present, and it is cool that we drive cars we can have this discussion about. My buddy has an 06STI and he said he was impressed I stay with him consistintly, and he is not a modest man.

LOL Ok, sir.

Either he/she's not telling you about all mods done, or you're not driving the car right.

I've past - off the top of my head - three(3) Z's (again, pre-07s) on 2nd and 3rd gear rolls up to 5th and have easily had 3-4 cars on them. Mind you, two of them had at least an intake done. Don't know if it was a SRI or CAI, but that really doesn't matter.

My mods: Injen intake, CS inserts, and TWM bushings. Oh, and the driver mod ;)

hmmm well perhaps you might want to flip the script a bit on that one. perhaps whoever you were "racing" didnt know how to drive there 350 or they werent really racing you. especially considering that there are more than a handful that have run 14.1 1/4mile,
2003 Nissan 350Z:
0-60: 5.4 seconds
0-100: 13.6 seconds
1/4 Mile: 13.95 seconds @ 103mph,

these are just a couple of examples. am i saying its not possible for us to beat them, no. is it possible for them to beat us..sure. but to come out with the obsurd comment of throw on a cai and we will walk all over the z, is purely ignorant at best. show me a dodge neon and that is walking all over someone.

*edit* believe me i know what has been done to the z in question. the owner is one of my best friends

LOL Ignorant? Because my results best magazine times? Um, now you're just mag-racing, with stats that aren't even fully relevant to the argument. Keep in mind, I'm not talking about out-the-dig runs, I'm talking about highway rolls.

Do you want me to get a video of me pulling on 1 or more pre-07 Zs? I'll be more than glad to put something together :)

Like I said, either he's not telling you what's fully done, or you're not driving the MS3 right. No stock-like, pre-07 should be pulling on or keeping up with an intake equipped MS3.

And, what was the "show me a dodge neon and that is walking all over someone" comment about?? Really didn't make any sense...

a stock z vs cai ms3..id put money on that race to double up...z's are fast and i wanted to get one before the ms3, if you go mod for mod against a 350 very very close race...driver race...ive seen 13.8 on oyutube with stock ms3....arent the new z's heavier? thats y they need more power to move the extra wieght....http://www.caranddriver.com/features/12243/2007-nissan-350z.html for 28k nissan can blow me...
 
Oki guys, if you wanna see what some good drivers can do with the Z here is a thread that will give you some quarter times. Most are verified with slips. Each section, as you can see is broken down by what type of power adder they have. The ones you will probably find most interesting is the N/A sections and bolt-on's. We have some very good drivers there but many of the times are just guys who are decent. So if you want to compare a "drivers" race, look at the top few slips.

Im not going to down on your car, out of respect. That is not what this post is about, or to say one is better than the other. We are all enthusiasts about our cars. To be fair though, comparing one car with power adders to a stock car makes little sense. You can add power mods till you reach the supercar range if you have the money. Likewise, any car in the 13 sec range can be a "drivers" race, because different variables along with skill can effect a 1/4 time.

Also, whoever said that most Z's arent modified because they are owned by young leasers or older people, is dead wrong. Id say the average age at my350z.com is in the 25-35 demographic. Thats just a guess, but we have plenty of older guys who are Z lovers who have modded Z's, and several younger than that also.

Heres the link. Lets keep it respectful and not fool ourselves. We don't believe our cars are the be all end all. Let the white trash mustang guys keep thinking that.

good job on telling us something we already knew?(yupnope)
 
Yeah, I could tell you knew because you obviously had the most reliable sources. Tried to be nice and keep it respectful and you gotta be sarcastic about it.

I wanted to enlighten you by giving you some actual numbers from one enthusiast to another, not get into a pissing contest. Sorry I bothered.

EDITTED for my lack of control of my quick temper.

im not pissing...just relax...lol i know th 2007 z can run those times...and that a driver makes the race ALL the time. you tried to be nice? by getting all mad at me jsut now? even if the slip is verified you cannot verify that the car is BONE STOCK. so those are reliabe to a point.... i go by magazines and estimate a bit faster than what the mag always is...they drive conservatively and magazine times are always beatable...good job keeping your cool tho(yupnope)
 
Probably a bad night for me to be taking criticism (it is evening where Im at). Sure enough though, I tried to give respect to you guys rather than being one of those crossposters that get on a board just to bash, and I receive criticism and sarcasm. Way to represent, but I am guilty of the same here.(yupnope) I guess that is to be expected though. Predisposition on a given subject often breeds closeminded attitudes towards outside opinions. So lets move on then shall we?

As to your post, you are correct that some of them can not be verified as stock. However, the top slips are usually cars that are well known in the Z world. A good majority of our posters meet on several occasions, we are a very tight knit group. It is not uncommon for several of our members to meet at a certain track, or take their cars to meets or dyno days. Needless to say, if you read the thread i pointed out, that if someone cant back up their claim, we call them out pretty handily.
 
Yeah, if you look at some of the times on the TT's, its pretty crazy. One thing I will point out that you guys might have an advantage is, the VQ does not mod well with Bolt ons. Simply because Nissan squeezed just about everything they could out of the engine. Definately the law of diminishing returns on that one. However, they are pretty rugged and seem to turbo well.
 
yea anything is possible with the right amount of $$$...the mazdaspeed3 is still young...1 year or so and the mods will have increased and this car will be a beast...all i want from this car is a 12.0-12.5 second quarter mile which is hard to acheive...but so far best time with dr's is 13.0 in a speed3 but with the guys mods he could have got a better time with proper tuning or better tuning... time will tell..so will my wallet
 
We have some guys that are N/A that are into the 12's. A few that are into the low 12's, but from what I've learned, the cost was too prohibitive to be worthwhile. Although Ive spoken to a few of the guys who have broken into the high 12s N/A and it seems that its not terribly hard to do with the right configuration. Its just getting lower than that. Its all in what you are willing to pay.

Since this thread is about 07 Z's with the new VQ, the very same could be said about it. Its new and it will probably take some time for the mods to truly take advantage of the new motor. Although we have one verified 07 that did 13.1 with DR's. I'll be interested in seeing how things pan out with the 07's as newer mods become available. (Right now I have no clue what bolt-ons the poster put on to get down to 13.1) I might trade my 04 in for one.

I would say quite a few of our guys have respect for the MS3. Its pretty well known that they have potential. There is no doubting on our boards that they are quick machines. Now when it comes to comparing looks... :p (poke)

do you start everypost with LOL? lol

oh dear, you are braking out the home made videos now were talking facts (jerkit)

And be careful about telling somebody they are mag racing when you dont know where the sources come from. you just assumed the times i posted were out of some magazine and you are dead wrong. you know what they say when you assume right? you tend to make an ass out of yourself.

Quite frankly we can continue to piss all over eachother on this one but the reality is that its rediculous. There is every reason why a pre-07 should be keeping up with an MS3. THEY HAVE ENOUGH POWER!!! but wait, i am going to pre-counteract your next statement. they have less torque than we do. well guess what, i bet there gearing is different.

Now i want you to keep something in mind. I own an MS3 and i think its a great car. its fast as hell, and fun as hell. However its not the fastest thing out there in the world. Not every car owner/maker is trying to make cars "keep up" with US. Our MS3's are not the godsent that you seem to think they are.

as for my statement on the neon thing, it is really quite simple. Ill give you some credit here because it was pretty early in the morning so I will assume thats why you couldnt understand it. The statement was made that we can walk all over the 350z and THAT IS NOT TRUE. a dodge neon, a chevy cobalt, and moped, we can walk all over those cars. Not a 350Z which was my original point to my original post in this thread. However its rather plain to see that you can't say our cars wont beat something on this forum without being told you dont know the mods done to a car that you have spent as much time driving and enjoying as the owner or that i dont know how to drive my own car. So rant on and contunue to thikn you are the end all authority on cars:bs:
