Yeah my post meant no disrespect. We have the same goals! My goal is to have the fastest NA track prepped 370z in the states! That means running lap times without aero to beat Doran lap times, and...

Not saying its impossible but Dorans car was probably around 425whp/2999lbs with driver and fuel on full slicks with my buddy Steven driving the car. Going to be hard to get there with 100 less hp,...

Yep! Arguably the most fun class to get into in GridLife. Its 100% the most competitive class and the cheapest to get into. Also for anyone not in the midwest like myself, GridLife is expanding! They...

This might work awesome for most people, but in the world of racing and classing in my case, no boost is allowed on a factory NA car. I'm trying to take my already competitive street class car and...

This is where I'm at, which is the more cost effective way to get to 400whp. If the vvel heads can take it and do it, ill keep them, if not I have to find someone willing to part with a set of heads.

Correct. But this was due to them pushing there rpms over 8k. the harmonics and vibration of the crank around 8100 (quoted from JWT) is very stressful and causes fatigue and eventually cracks. When...

Ahhh ok, yeah 391whp is awesome! I'd be super happy with those numbers, but I'm trying to get there without going with an aftermarket crank. Custom grind C2 cams (not the off the shelf ones), imsa...

Thanks! Ended up placing 1st in the Gridlife Street class season against much higher hp cars. For reference, the top guys I ran with this season: Evo9 @ 360-370whp Sti @ 370-380whp Evo10 @...

How is your build going? Also not sure bigger TB's will be useful when the intake manifold is still necked down to around 60-65mm. Valkyrie guys tested bigger throttle bodies on stock manifold and it...
