The 370Z is going to be slightly faster on average due to simple physics. It weighs about the same or less, has better traction, and has more HP. We have one guy here with an automatic that is already beating all but 2 on the list of a 100 350Z track times with a 13.2 and one mag has already pulled a 13.1. The average stock 350Z is pulling 13.7 to 13.8 on dragtimes.com with the lower than 13.5 second stocker being the rare exception. Most times we've seen on the 370Z are between 13.3 and 13.5 so I'd asume this in going to be the average time, not the top times as more 370Z's are stripped. After seeing the initial results I'd be willing to bet we may see some sub 13 numbers eventually on that perfect day with that perfect driver. The overall focus of the car is not strip anyway. I'm waiting to see what the NISMO 370Z is going to do on track and strip. If it matches the NISMO 350Z's structural integrity it's gonna be a beast! From what I've read, it's NOT gonna have the extra frame welding but is being stiffened with different suspension parts only.
