Default "Made in Japan"

My stock Kawasaki ZX9R (10.3 sec ¼ mi) will beat the Vette in the video. For build and component quality sorry, you can’t beat “Made in Japan”. Both my 350Z and 370Z are engineering and assembly works of art. I have also owned a “68” Firebird 400, “69” Nova 396, a “75” Monza with a 262 V8 and a “62 “ Vette with a 327 / 350 hp drop-in. All of my GM “Hot Rods” disintegrated from the inside out. Push rod motors just don’t have the life span. They were all great fun while they lasted (About 50k miles before major engine repair) Our Nissan VQ37VHR engines are engineered about 3 decimal points greater to the right than the GM stuff. Also, to be fair, you should be looking at the GTR.
