Exactly my thoughts. Maybe if the M3 had a couple mods it would be close, but stock M3 doesn't have a chance.

Even stock for stock the 7AT has a good shot when it's up against an MT. 7AT has launch and consistency on it's side. It's nearly impossible to have a bad run, whereas it's very easy for an MT driver to botch a launch or shift.

Good luck buddy give'em he'll i'm sure you'll be fine.

I've done it before

Well not really a terrible run I guess, just terrible compared to my normal runs. 13.8 was worst I've ever done, it was a run full of wheel spin.

A facepalm is not the end of the world. He also wished him luck, which you somehow took as a negative.

Anyways I don't want to get into this here. Sorry for going off topic Z elim

Yeah I did it once and ONLY ONCE! A lot of it was mostly luck and just perfect conditions at the time. Best time outside of that was a 13.2 stock, but only had 4 runs that day. There is one other person who has done 12.9 stock, but I don't know if that was only once or if he was able to do it multiple times.

My friend just got an 08 M3 6MT as well and he bought his with an exhaust. I have an exhaust and will hopefully have intakes on soon too. We are going to the drag strip later this month so I will let you guys know how it goes. I know he's going to be faster than me, but I'm more interested in how much the difference is. Not sure how good of a driver he is though. I will say that last time I went out there I did consistently better than 2 Camaro SS's.

Yea definitely let us know how it goes. Always been curious about that. Where I live is BMW land... What mods do you have? Just the exhaust?

Yes just the exhaust for now, but I should have Stillen G3 intakes by the time I get out there. Don't know if it will make much of a difference or not, but I'm running on all season tires.

i want the stillen ! oh well, i dont even have real plates yet so i guess its ok to wait lol

Z eliminator · 09-02-2011, 03:46 PM

Thanks for the support guys.
will post times and vid's

Here is a pic of my 2003 stillen SC, 5 At with line lock doing a burn out.
Hard to belive that with 3.53 gear it only runs 13.03's
The 370 is a way better car but the 350Z up to 100 km. is really quick.

The 370 now has line lock.

phunk · 09-02-2011, 03:52 PM

a lightly tuned and modified 370z being driven by someone who has lots of experience drag racing that exact car MIGHT beat a brand new stock M3 (driven by someone who just bought the car) down the 1/4 mile.

but the M3 is still the faster car. and everyone knows it.

It will either be a close run (M3 driver good) or a blow away by the OP....just my opinion though.

Close to what I said....but the OP has the experience...does the M3 driver in this instance.

I don't think Z elim's car counts as lightly modified
