I now weigh 170 as I also put myself on a 5 day diet and lost 3 lbs. Both previous times I went with more than 3/4 tank of gas, this time I had less than 1/4 tank. Did a 13.066@108.23 and a 13.078@109.32 on a 54 degree day. I drove a 2014 Corvette on Friday that felt alot faster than my car. But in the November issue of Car&Driver or Motor Trend it said the new Vette does the 1/4 in 12.5@116 so my Z is only a half second slower for half the price.
That is really impressive! Very few people drag race here. So do your own thing.

Want to do 12.5's??? Should be easy....
Test pipes, an up-rev tune, drag radials to get your 60' to 1.8. & gears. Not sure what # gears because it's an automatic. There's a drag racer on the 370z 1/4 list that has an automatic. The gear numbers have to be perfect(a must) & work well with your rear drag radial's size. Check with him! Also remove your pass seat when racing

That's all you need to do 12.5's. REALLY! Perfect gear selection a must!
