those things are pretty quick out of the hole. My brother raced one w/his 350z and he has basic bolt ons and couldn't keep up, and no it wasn't the driver cuz he drives damn well!

Those things are pretty quick. It will most likely walk all over you if you are stock or have only basic bolt-ons. I was about to race on the other day but then it ended up not happening. But when we were going to the spot we race at, it seemed like it could beat me. However the IS250 is a completely different story.

Mostlikely that IS350 will pull a good amount on stock S2000. The hp deficit is just too much. Handling-wise, it's a different story.

they run close to the same 1/4 and the s2k actually traps faster. i say from a dig you'd better be on your game or else he'll get past you. from a roll i'd say the s2k should be able to pull away.

i've run a modded i/e is350 and i was able to say ahead, although it was faster than any 350z i've ran.

Uh, no! IS350 with a competent driver should be able to get 5.0 sec 0-60 and 13.6 @ 105 mph in 1/4mi. Usually, S2000 cannot touch that. Your modded S probably can, but not a stock one.

stock s2k have no chance against stock is350 from dig or roll,.. but with bolt ons, it could be possible to hang i guess..
