If something were to happen to my Z, I'd probably get a 5.0 to replace it.

Otherwise, I'm keeping the Z till I get a GT-R.

That was a fun ride! Now it's Dan's turn to give me one. Maybe we can take the Subie for a spin afterwards

Insurance Rep: Please tell me what happened.
Me: I was leaving for school this morning and saw that my car was completely destroyed.
Insurance Rep: Any idea of who might have done this?
Me: Not sure, but it did smell like redneck afterwards.
Insurance Rep: That bastard struck again. Let me guess, you had a 370Z and now you're thinking about getting a 5.0?
Me: Yes, how did you know?
Insurance Rep: Fukin Steve, we're gonna catch him one of these days.

Interesting Vids to watch, since Red_Zed went to such lengths to prove me wrong. Seems like it does one thing better... Going in a straight line. LOL

Yeah, it was really a huge inconvenience to post up a picture--why would you bother posting something obviously false when everyone has access to it and the ability to call you out on it?

Let me save you the time...


Red_Zed: There are guys running low 12's stock so all the test and magazines that show it running 13's are wrong.

What response do you want to the vids? I saw nothing we didn't already know....the z puts down great magazine numbers.


Blades can give you the explanation for why his crack into the 12s doesn't compare to mag times. I've explained it once, and you seem to have missed it. And no one runs the z low 12s stock....

LOL, so the Z puts down great "mag numbers?" WTF does that mean. So in the real world your 5.0 would stop better and pull better skid pad results slalom etc?? But once we do a test for a Mag the Z is killing the Stang in the turns? Just did a quick search on Youtube and it seems like a BONE STOCK I made that big cause alot of people think BONE STOCK means slicks are running mid to low 13's.

Blades car hit a 12.9. Thats not that far off the 13.2-13.3 the Z runs (according to most mags) and his is an Auto which is faster then the 6MT. I read and see the 5.0 running 13-13.4 ish, but here from people that the car is running mid 12's stock.

That run was all just luck. Perfect conditions + perfect time = that run. Haven't been able to get into the 12's again after that run, not even after modding. Just because it happened once doesn't mean it is the norm. That was a run under ideal conditions, which is never the case 99.99% of the time so it doesn't really mean anything. Look at the average times people are getting, that's a better indication of a car's capability.
