370z vs IS-F
 
Curious if any of you guys have ever lined up with an IS-F at the drag strip. I would think it would be a fairly close race with the slight edge to the F purely based on Horsepower. Thoughts? Anybody in dallas want to try it and find out :)

Stock vs stock. I don't think the Z has enough grunt to win, drivers being equal. I think the IS-F definitely has the advantage....more power, more torque.

Here's a list of real world track numbers.

From my personal times stock for stock it looks like it would definitely be a drivers race. My best stock time was a 12.97 at 109.xx which puts me in between #1 and #2 from your list of stock cars and I was averaging 13.1x's.

I haven't had a chance to run with intake and exhaust yet but will get back with numbers when it cools down a bit.

I think the IS-F would win that matchup

I have lined up against an IS-F. My car stayed with it til' about 30 mph. Then it was tailights. I don't remember the exact time that he ran. I ran a 13.2 though

K&N filters and short tails don't really add up to much.

I think you'd be pretty close racing someone with full bolt-on's and a 4.08 gear swap.

i took down an ISF before and i'm on stock gears and a 1/8 mile drag. actually the guy is a friend of mine and we are gonna do a 1/4 run here soon once i get new rears. right now i wouldnt have proper traction to call it a real race. my rears are at like <50% based on camber wear.

depending on if he has headers or just exhaust he's halfway to full bolt on for an F :( We only have I/H/E and Nitrous since we can't tune them.

My car is fully bolted on, but untuned and I've lined up with two. Both of them have won and they were 100% stock. They put two cars on me. I'm not sure how much a tune will help but I'm tuning then rerunning. Closed area so no rules were broken but we did a 20 roll and 40 roll

sad to hear but ur Z is 7+yrs old technology. they were fast for its time. this day and age, there are much faster family cars out dere dan ur Z. enjoy the Z for wat they are (beauty, sound, handling).
