09 370z w/ sport package vs. Modded 05 Sti

Red__Zed

Pretty much everything will feel different. How much power were you laying with the STI?

hmmm not sure if thats a bad thing or a good thing lol


around 325awhp and 340awtq


Im not expecting the 370 to be as fast as the sti, but i never for a sec think that it would be "slow". Also i know not to expect the gains from bolt ons for the 370 seeing as they max out around 300rwhp (correct me if im wrong) with bolt ons. TT would def be a step for me in the not so distant future.

I have both a 370Z and an 03' EVO with 370awhp and 340 awtq. Coming from a modded AWD turbo car you'll miss the midrange torque as the Z requires more rpm to extract power. Once above 5K rpm the car pulls nicely and would be able to hang with a 300+awhp EVO/STi at highway speed.
The interior is a much nicer place to be, though the overall visibility is not as good as in a 4 door sedan. The Z has a good road feel and a quick steering rack (not as sharp as an EVO but probably quicker than a STi steering.)
The Z is a fun car to drive, although the only few things you'll miss will be the turbo torque, the modability, the awd traction, and the practicality of a sedan.

pretty much sums up everything. You'll love the sports car steering coming from a STi

90 ST

A CBE will get you to about 300, another 15-18 for a CAI, tune another 7-10. There are more than a few guys with 325-340 with just a tune and a few bolt ons. Then you have to remember the weight savings over the STi.

Lol what? I've got pretty much everything but FI and I'm putting down 315 rwhp. Show me these people please.

Also how much does an STI weigh? I came from an 06 stage 1 Evo and I don't know that my Z currently at 3500 lbs with me in the car is neccissarily a huge weight savings.

Edit: unless of course you are getting numbers from a dynapak type of dyno with absolutely no load whatsoever. I think I hit like 340 or something on one of those but that's not a streetable number.

315rwhp with a **FULL** bolt on Z?!! what is your mod list!? I made 307rwhp with JUST dropins testpipes and Y on a dynojet Sae corrected....and there are plenty of people in 320-340 range on here
