I know for a fact that a stock GTR can not beat me in the straight. I am not saying how I know because the forum does not support it so you can figure it out. People hold this GTR like it is a god. Realistically you can make the z faster for a lot less of a price tag. Don't get me wrong it is a nice car but you give it way to much credit compared to a moded Z

Vegitto-kun 02-09-2011 04:27 PM

you are saying that a TT370 = less than 3.5 to 60?

want

I am saying in a quarter mile my 370z>GTR

0-60 gtr is going to pull harder because of AWD

Vegitto-kun 02-09-2011 04:38 PM

next step of white dragon project

make it AWD :roflpuke2:

is that even possible.

how much power are you making anyway?

toner123 02-09-2011 04:40 PM

yes there is a company that does that. I have to look them up forgot there name. It is very expensive though and I wouldn't do it because the Z car is RWD by history

toner123 02-09-2011 04:42 PM

just seen the second part of your post. when i did my dyno i did 460 to the wheels and that was a conservative tune. When sam sent me my new tune it was noticably faster on the butt dyno. I will get a new one when spring comes to confirm the actual power but I am betting it is 500 or a little more

That said... why has no one just bolted up a AWD G37 trans?

THAT would be a sweeeet project!

Or (less challenging), just boost one of those :p

GTM - what software are you using to model the new components? what kind of stress considerations were considered in using plastic material on a critical component like this? (sorry, my engine knowhow / engineering is still pretty limited, so just trying to learn a few things)

Mike - i thought you were going to DD the dragon? wasn't that the whole point of the build? i mean, i've no problem with the STi, looks REALLY good. just wondering why the philosophy change?

(and can you buy me a new DD? kthx!)

^ last legitimate question in this thread, albeit somewhat unrelated haha. back on track please?

it'd be nice if a new thread could be opened for this. it's gotten out of hand. i started reading, then got lazy, and skipped almost the entire middle.

Seriously guys take this else where. Also this was never said to be done in 1 month so get your facts straight. It was also said if things go well it would have been finished in august... That was said in May... Sam already had a block ready to go... We found out that the piston heads wouldn't match well with the VVEL top end so we had custom ones ordered and made to our specs which took 2-3 weeks... Seriously people need to chill out. Yes we were hopeful and optimistic to have it done around the august time frame but with SEMA and magazine shoots the car had to leave Sam's shop several times to go get work done at other shops... Not to mention the car was gone from GTM for 2 weeks for SEMA... Also Sam had other customer's cars needing to be built an I remember everyone whining about my car getting a fast track in front of other people which turned out to be completely bogus!!! Sooo if you have a complaint go cry to someone who cares because we don't... It's my car an my build and honestly I don't care what haters think...

bullitt5897 02-10-2011 04:46 PM

I got the Sti for customer appearance... I do sales along with running my company... If I drive up in the Z people are going to think they pay me too much... Simply the Z will still be daily driven I just needed another car for work. :tup:
