Would love to hear how you lost 220lbs from your weight reduction, especially after adding the audio equipment. Go ahead, make a list and try to add/subtract to 220lbs. The 06 G35s were revups, and the 07s were HRs. You'd have a hell of time inching away from an auto HR and would have trouble putting much distance on a rev-up. You probably raced an older model with a terrible driver/he didn't downshift/his car is broke/you're disgustipated and you're exaggerating.
This made me laugh, that is all.

yeah I would say your 110 pounds less than stock at most and maybe +10 hp without tuning.

As far as the g goes I've beat a bunch of them but not raped. especially uphill my neighbors g35 6spd with intake and exhaust is dead even with my car.

I had a g35 coupe before now a g37 and my s2k, the g35 was pretty slow. g37 picks up whole lot quicker though

Forgot all about this thread. Figures that your troll-ass would post in this. Let's see...

Gutted soft-top + carbon fiber hardtop = 60-70 lbs of weight reduction
Rims = 2 lbs*4 (8 lbs) less than stock AP2 V1's
Recaro PP seats = 20 lbs less than stock each *2 = 40 lbs
PLM header = 10 lbs less than stock
FIPK = 8 lbs less than stock
HFC = 12 lbs less than stock
Exhaust = 30 lbs less than stock
Gutted tool tray + no spare = 35 lbs less than stock
Gutted window washer fluid = 6-8 lbs
KW V3's = at least 5 lbs less than stock

Using the minimum posted numbers, that's 214 lbs of weight reduction on my AP1, which weighs 2750~ lbs bone stock with 1/4 tank of gas. I'm sure even your goofy self can do math, so give it a shot. My sub + box weighs about 20 lbs, and my amp weighs like 4 lbs.

Rev-ups are still slow, and HR G35's aren't nearly as fast as 350z HR's. I don't understand why this is so hard to comprehend. Most people that know me (e.g. people that aren't fools like yourself) know that I don't exaggerate unless it's for humorous purposes. I'll demonstrate myself exaggerating: you're a huge idiot, and you probably bang your mother's household pets.

While you're probably not a huge idiot (just an idiot), and you've probably only had sex a couple of times with your mother's pets, it was still an exaggeration. Hopefully this has helped you learn how to discern between exaggeration and seriousness.

Again, I did state earlier that he could've been a horrible driver. I did pull almost 3 buses on him, despite starting half a car behind him. It's just the way things go. Not sure why it's so unbelievable especially with how much weight reduction my car has.

I don't doubt your story, but there is no way you have 200 lbs of weight savings. The entire soft top assembly weighs 65 lbs. A 17 x 9.5" NT03 weighs 20 lbs which is more than AP1 wheels, not to mention you are running 255's all around. I have almost the exact same mods (gutted top, seats, single exhaust/test pipe, no tools, etc) and when I corner balanced my car it came in at 2,780 lbs but I did have 3/4 tank of gas and the extra weight from the SC, maybe 80 lbs or so. I could see you coming in at about 2,650 with 1/4 of gas which isn't bad at all. Also, they have the aero advantage so once you get up into the triple digits it's very hard to pull on them.
