just cuz they run 13.4 at the track doesn't mean they run that on the street.

13.4 is a really good time for just those mods on a 350Z, like really good times. a few guys wont run that with a single turbo package. those guys probably have a lot more done or your track prep and density altitude must be godly!
I've seen a SC 350z runnig 13.3 ....

my bad on the top part.. lol and yes wisconsin, anything is possible on the street... lol a geo metro could beat an s2000, small possibility, but i'm sure there's a chance... lol

ANd to the original poster, i'm not saying what you are posting dindt happen, but you did awefully well against that car, if it did run a 13.4... and when going from a roll, it'd actually b easier for the faster car to win... Judging from the times, i'm assuming he is a fairly good driver, and for him to beat you only by half a car, props to you and your car. by the way, you know what mph the 350 ran?

If he ran from 1st to 4th and the 13.4 sec Zs didn't pull till about 110, he probably just punched it first or the Zs started in 2nd.


Street races, it happens.

Bolt-ons? Intake, Header, and Exhaust!? No tuning, slicks, or gears?

I would love to get some 1/4 mile times for you guys cause this thing feels good...

I'm scared as shit of the diff. breaking, I just got this car back on the road and its my daily, and I just sold my old daily I was using in its place since I got it back.

If you guys can steer me in the direction of getting an ap2 housing, and where to get those kia 4.77 gears, I'll install everything and go to the track, and have my stock ap1 diff for back up.

I launched it once on the street, about 6500-7000 and it went great, I preloaded the drivetrain and slipped the clutch out instead of just dropping it.
