this was at the track not the street, i dont street race, its illegal and dangerous...

this was at a drag strip as well not a road course, the closest track is willow springs and that like a 8 hour drive and im not willing to make that drive unless its a special occasion

just the other day i raced a modded evo x in my stock nismo Z and i beat him(not by much but i did beat him)

he had a full exhaust, Cat delete, and running 17psi off the stock turbo
while my car was just a stock nismo(compared to the base Z all thats different is exhaust, tune, and weight) and tbh if a stock nismo Z will be some modded evos, there is alot of potential for a full bolton Z with a tune

i think full bolton Zs make close to 350whp with a tune and you might be able to make more
Nope...

a stock Z is about 250-260whp(estimate again) so another 100whp from full boltons(exhaust, CAI, heads, cams, light weight flywheel, lightweight pully, ect.) isnt unrealistic but you would have to be tuned for everything, untuned you would only really gain like 30whp from everything

but im also a z noob so chances are that im wrong

It’s quite a hard choice. They both are quite similar in design and power. I think you should choose the evo X.

To the OP - if you have to ask then get the EVOX or whatever that 4 door sedan is called.

well i can already see 2 posts that are gonna turn this into another evo X vs. 370Z love fest....please people, keep the drama to a minimum. they are both great cars with their strengths and weaknesses just like any car, no need to put one on a pedestal over another just because YOU think it is the best car in the world

I just bought a 2012 PW NISMO Z 6 Months ago and I just ordered a 2013 Evo X GSR fully loaded. BTW which fully loaded the interior is far superior to the z. Also I love the Z but I couldnt stand being without boost. I came to the conclusion that I thought i was going to mod my z but when looking at getting good power gains and i cant live without boost, I wasnt ready to drop 15g+ on a TT kit for my z. So I got the Evo x in wicked white on order with all options availiable for the same price as a nismo z. I am selling my z and couldnt be happier about the choice i made. I got comments on the z alot but i care more about my driving experience than what other ppl think of my car either way i still get from A-B fast.

The X is interior is garbage, the car is great.

Hes high for sure.

The x has recaros and thats it, but the dash and everythng else feels like playschool made it, so don't kid yourself. The Z's interior especially the touring is way ahead.
