G35 owns SR

[khoadogg]

My friend with his auto G35 on sport shift beat my car on a little illegal street racing on an empty street. All I have is a redtop SR with old plugs, fuel pump, intake, dp, stock cat, 3in exhaust and boosting 9psi. We were even off the line until after every shift he'd get about half a car ahead of me. I shifted around 6500 and by 3rd gear, he was a good two cars ahead. Just a little baseline before I fix my problems and put in new plugs. BTW, I have 15 mesh wheels, full interior and a full rollcage. It was quite fun and can't wait to do it again!

[bing]

i mildly done SR should wipe a G35 all day long...

they are mid-14 second cars

[SoCalSilvia]

i raced me

how can he lose?

[Eternal_240Sx]

i raced me friend

I have 15 mesh wheels

LOL!! You guys need to stop skipping your english class dammit!!
:fawk:

[BobbyBoy]

Clean up your SR, and boost 12psi and you should be pulling Gs and 350Z all day. By mid 3rd gear you should have 2-3 cars on them.

[psychedelicbeats]

i was gonna say slow sr but hopefully a retune should do. otherwise, a eg b16 on bolt ons would be on your face at half the price of a s13 sr... should race me and my eg(no b16 in mine) some day on a straight. we all know riverside is notorious for dead roads.

how can he lose?
hah, thats some funny shit..

[Ian]

i've raced G35's an 350Z's alot...the only time i loose is when the 350Z is turboed too...

[MakotoS13]

and here i was kind of hopping somebody puit a G355 or Z33 motor in an S13.... sigh

[rps13sh]

next people will claim they can beat skylines.

SR swaps that need work are not fast at all. I have seen 185whp dynos on them with stock boost. Thats nothing to be concerned about if you own a 350Z or a G35. Before you get all upset notice I said "stock boost". 9psi is not really that high.

[biggie]

Indeed the VQ is a stong engine. Those cars are just heavy.

A VQ S13 still would be interesting and fun.

but i thought that stock boost was 7psi!?!?!?!? :tweak:

[tastyratz]

g35? nothing like a car around 4k lbs. doesnt take much to make any light car beat a heavy ass car like a g35, their just too damn heavy.

[khoadogg]

i raced me

So I guess you won and lost eh? heheh

I'm not sure how fast SR's can be because I haven't really raced with it in a striaght line. It was a different kind of rush tho, waiting for the gears to redline. I think my highlight was after we were done, I had to heel-toe, shift and turn onto another street at the end. Straight line runs don't give the same feeling as hanging turns. If I would have saved my money on the suspension and just put it into power, it would have been a better story. MESHIES are tight! Best bang for the width and lipage! I really need to take that stock CAT off and fix my boost leaks. I have a blitz EBC but it's not tuned right because the setup isn't easy. Maybe I'll install that as well....

Oh yeah, sup bobby! How was the Eastcoast?

[98sr20ve]

but i thought that stock boost was 7psi!?!?!?!? :tweak:

Right, 9-7=2 Not that different.

[tastyratz]

whens the last time you seen an sr installed stock? its always got bolt ons, you call that stock?

[pimp1911]

I have a 350z. And since we are all in the same Nissan family. Here are some of the weak points of the G35/350z/VQ that we are currently hacking around. Very expensive/tough to get 300 rwhp NA out of the motor. Nissan didnt give us much room to play.

350z/G35
Rods and Rod bolts.
Plenum- Restrictive
Weight (Stock exhaust is 16lbs, hatch 48lbs etc etc)
Z's that have stock internals cant boost over 8 or 9 psi. Or Pop.
ECU( Not very tuner friendly, especially in later Z's or G's. Anything after 2004.5)
Stock 350z's rev limiter is set to low (6600rpms) pre 2005 model. But a very torquey engine.
International versions of the Z intake duct is smaller than US Spec Z's.
Stock Throttle body doesnt open to 100%
Final drive ratio is to low. 3.5. Can mod up to 3.95.
US Spec Z's dont have a heat sink diff cover to pull heat off of LSD. International versions do.

G35
Stock intake tube is more restrictive compared to Z. As much as 7 hp is lost just by this tube.

g35? nothing like a car around 4k lbs. doesnt take much to make any light car beat a heavy ass car like a g35, their just too damn heavy.
The G35 coupe weighs in at around 3400 lbs, the Z at around 3200. It will usually take some form of forced induction for a 4 banger to beat either.

[Two4zerO]

it isnt easy typing in a hurry..but yea we raced and he beat me..then we got the parking lot..i told him g35 is quick..but he said he noticed that i started to creep up on him after 100..the end...

[Ian]

at 8 psi my car dynoed at 210whp

at 15 psi i beat a 350Z to 100 by about 2 car lengths

[RSP13-Sideways]

Clean up your SR, and boost 12psi and you should be pulling Gs and 350Z all day. By mid 3rd gear you should have 2-3 cars on them.

You also have to clean your engine bay and sand blast your pulleys so they are bling.....if you don't do these two mods you will not win by 2-3 cars, you will lose by 2-3 cars....

[infinitexsound]

hmm intresting.........whos up for a game of UNO?

[evilimport]

^ WTF?

SR swaps that need work are not fast at all. I have seen 185whp dynos on them with stock boost.
well, thats about normal HP at the wheels of a completely stock redtop SR running 7 psi. (205hp at the crank)

[Siizzzoooo]

350z, much less g35s, are easily beaten

[SoCalS14]

Yea, I just stomped on a 2 dr G tonight. I guess I was kinda inspired by this thread...NO match for modestly done SR...It was kinda funny...I kept thinking...I bet he paid 40+ k for that...hahaha
