Unless they are using only two of the four gears or maybe, most likely that has been YOUR experience.

I'm open to a 370z guy that has done some drag racing with a fully modded 370 doing only low 13's to post here!!!!

Someone please. You don't count. I already know what you can do. Now it may not be your fault, that rear spoiler you have can be a real big wind catcher
Your posts are so convoluted.. half the time I can't even articulate what the hell you are trying to say. So you are saying the average full bolt on and tuned 370z with a good driver doesn't average low 13s? What times then, 12's? And don't be talking about my wing dude. Lol, I bet if I take it off you would buy it from me when you get your 370. I see mostly 13s here- official 1/4 mile track times

How about you just buy my low mileage Nismo when I sale it in the next couple months and we'll call it even.

I saw your link, and what I saw was PURE stock 370z's doing 12,9's/13"s & low 13's. The bolted section was from 12.2 to mid twelve. You said good drivers.

THAT'S WHY I WANT A Z !!!! Like I said, nobody would notice me if I competed with a car that has most of their drivers knowing how to drive.

With some Z drivers doing 12.2's & others doing 13.8 says a lot! I want to be part of a group that YOU belong to, drivers with a fully bolted Z's turning ONLY low 13's......

Default My car was NOT fully bolted by far & it was only a 350

So should I expect my FULLY BOLTED Z doing 11.9's????

You also were on slicks, so it's not exactly apples to apples.

Slicks are 100% part of the bolt on rules. Others also use & tried using slicks with not good results.
Let's put into the mix that I had STOCK intakes & base stock Nissan exhaust, minus cats.

All are welcome to use any tires they want. Get slicks, please.

Tell you a little secret. First day I used my slicks, I was so unhappy that I drove around the track trying to sell them. It took me over 9 months to learn how to use them.

Oh, I know. I'm just pointing out that it's hard to compare times on street tires vs. slicks.

On the other site they have guys with slicks. Some have quicker times, others slower. Many tried & they weren't for them, mostly cause times got worse not better. These are 6 cyl. N/A cars. Slicks aren't for everyone. I started with slicks only after I got into the 12.7's/12.8's...

That is cool man, get what you would like. I love the Z and think its a great overall performance sports car. I was just throwing out the heavy hitters like the 5.0 and Vette because they have some really fast 1/4 times stock, and I know you are all about that. Buuuuuut, remember, with the Nismo having the extra 18hp, you could possibly shave off .5 sec to a regular Z's time

I know that they have 18 h.p. more. I also KNOW why they(Nismos) are NOT at the top of the list here & at the 350z forum. If you would want to know why, just ask ...
