Lol, no idea, someone asked that a few pages back.

Oh, and I am borrowing a set of rear wheels, so if he doesn't mind me dyno-ing on them, I might dyno soon
(After I receive donations, lol)

Think all the people "like me" just didn't see enough gains to brag about it. Not for that kind of money.

We have a set for $150+shipping.

SPOHN 01-30-2014 09:31 AM

I'll do $120 shipped. ;)

Joepro 01-30-2014 09:37 AM

I don't know if it was the headers or art pipes, but r/t got some good tq numbers from my car, a lot higher than most I have seen, could be their tuning ability as well...

Joepro 01-30-2014 09:43 AM

I bought the set off DEfivepoint0 about 20 minutes ago, thanks guys! I may not even need them, just buying them in case I cannot get the BP turbo kit to work with the z1's.

Especially when YOU were going to take me for a sucker!!!!!!!!! That's ok. After the last two weeks I'm just going back to my old A$$hole ways.

That also has nothing to do with this site. I was doing you a favor. WAS.

brucelidat 01-30-2014 12:15 PM

wonder if they still have any plans to make this match up with 370 cats and TPs

TheBoomSpoon 03-20-2014 01:09 AM

What does this guy mike's car with the 342 who run the quarter in? Time and trap? Street tires not drag radials. Do we or anybody have this data, if no then why not damming :)

Mike's not gonna load up his trailer and go to the drag strip in his track car. Waste of time.

Plus if he did, it would be on Hoosier slicks and with a giant wing and a splitter, so the results would be nigh useless.

There's a quarter mile thread that has more what you're looking for in it. Good luck.

TheBoomSpoon 03-20-2014 11:12 AM

Obviously. Its all we hear about for dyno numbers yet no qtr. Ok. Protective of b.s. I suppose. Its all good I won't consider that car then, no prob for me

The percentage of Z owners who care at all about quarter mile times is very, very small. When most people here mention a "track", it has corners.

there will always be non-beleiver on almost everything

I have no doubt on his 342whp
a Dyno is just a Dyno , some of the same exact brand can read higher or lower.
What count is the gain on the same dyno.

they dyno 370z at 275-280 stock . 342 is only 62-67whp gain
this also include their Z1 modified Intake manifold that proved by itself gain in the higher powerband of about 10whp. then they also mentionned at that time thye played with the VVEL and saw minor gain if I recall

so im not totaly impress with only that 62-67gain there is even more to be found with that stock engine.

Protective?

I tend to think Z1's dyno (where that car was dynoed) is inflated as hell, this isn't being protective, this is me pointing out that, with very few exceptions, those of us who spend the time and money to heavily modify these cars don't waste our time at a drag strip trying to break **** for no reason.

Furthermore, unless you have an autobox, the launch is the major variable with the car that makes quarter times nearly impossible to really compare from car to car. This is a hard car to launch if you don't have the bitch box and most folks don't waste their time trying to 'master' it.

Do what you want, I seriously couldn't care less, I don't have these headers. :tup:

Your question had a pretty douchey tone to it, so people responded in kind. Had you phrased things differently, people would have been more friendly to you. You've got 12 posts here, it's a little early to be calling BS on guys who actually use the car as intended, on a track with turns.

Don't call it a bitch box just because it's faster

I live my life a quarter mile at a time. What is this track with corners you speak of?

SPOHN 03-20-2014 12:20 PM

How bout a Dyno is only a tuning tool. That will blow your mind.

yeah, drag vs a 5.0 won't be pretty for us, haha. on the topic of the thread, has anyone new installed and dyno'ed these?

1/8th isn't a race, because we have auto's we'd beat 50% of whatever comes out anyways

Lol, not since a while ago!

But I have new wheels and tires! Just don't have the car right now... LOOOOOL!



You really should take my car to the dyno when I'm at work if you wanna get it dyno'd sooner than later ;)

I don't think I'll do headers unless the gains are really impressive which I doubt at this point. Too much install costs. Even Seb says it's not worth it, and he'd be the one making money off of me for it.

hey, id say a stock 5.0 will have a run for its money with a full bolt on and tuned 370z

but a modified 5.0 will destroy a full bolt on and tuned 370z

A stock 5.0 puts down around 375/350. Even with bolt ons and a tune, you better be a better driver than the other guy.

there is more to drag racing than just horsepower and torque, you have to take into account gearing, power to weight, FD, aero, ect.

a 5.0 mustang weighs close to 3700lbs with no extra addons like nav, sound, ect.
a 370z base weighs 3200lbs touring weighs somewhere around 3300lbs with a 7at and the nismo 370z is around 3300lbs(maybe a little less by ging off nissans advertised 9.4:1 power to weight ratio that puts the nismo at 3290), not to mention we have better gearing than the mustang
