MT you can do a 6th to 2nd at 75mph+ and blow it up mechanically.
why do you gotta ruin it lol

just wanted to scare people. dammit kenchan you ruin everything

I mean if someone tunes their car, raises the rev limiter past the point of 8k rpm, and the oil pump gives, then the engine will go boom....so technically it's possible

Now Im going to pay attention on the way home, you have me second guessing. My Z was a 6 speed but I never really thought about "track" qualities for this car. Interesting. Thanks!!!

the genny can be. newer ones come with 348HP in the V6. little bit skinnier tire set-up but the power and RWD is there.

by friend has a 2009 3.8 track edition genny and wont race me lol he said it's because he knows the result is not in his favor

No, the pre '13 are crap. Z is still faster than the new ones like mine. I was willing to give up a few ticks for the tech and pseudo luxury for an amazing price as a DD in this brutal south Florida traffic.

Yea...the tires, they suck. If I had ANY grip off the line this would take, at least half a second off the 1/4 time, cant wait to throw these out soon.
