Nissan 370Z Forum - What did you do with your Z today

Ken you can feel the extra weight in the Camaro. I would say that I'm comparing two very different cars. The Z is a small nimble sporty car while the Camaro is a muscle car where you need huge power to make it feel right. The Camaro I wanted was to be 680 hp and a 6m I felt that would give me the sporty feel I want.

ahh, i see. that's why a V6 camaro never wants to race my Z off the line. not that i would anyway... i get eaten by minivan's. :icon17:

:tup: Damn my car is pretty loud and I have yet to set an alarm off. Then again Ive never revved the sh1t outta it in a parking garage.

In my 240z, it just takes a little throttle blip to do the trick -- 11.5 pound Fidanza and fully mechanical throttle helps quite a bit in the instant-gratification arena.

/\ well, you wouldn't necessarily lose ALL reliability, maybe just some and even that's not a foregone conclusion. Just make sure you get a great tune, the tune is critical, esp for the stillen s/c since their out of the box tune by all accounts is crap. That said, were I ever to get a s/c, I'd be going with the stillen unit with an upgraded impeller and custom tune. :yum:

Today I drove over to one of my R/c plane flying spots. Followed up by smashing the plane into a bunch of pieces when it hit a light pole because of some stupidity and getting a little distracted. Then I spent about 2 hours cleaning my car for a photoshoot the Z club here as organized for tomorrow.
