Default 370z race cars?

So ive seen a few now but i never can find the results on how they do, I'm planning to eventually turn mine into one, but wanted to know do they typically do good as race cars in their classes and what class would the Z still be considered competitive in (gt4, gt3..)?


Here is the pic from speed hunters and their quote on another 370z race car: "In GT4 the #63 RJN Motorsport Nissan 370Z took top spot, starting 46th."

Many do well with them, but the truth is they are on the heavier side of the true "race car" types... With enough money any car can be transformed into anything though...

A shop I go to races there and they do very well with theres on an almost stock car with coilovers and a little weight reduction.

For starters you would want a proper LSD, some weight reduction, race tires, and proper cooling parts like oil , trans, and diff coolers... Your pockets depth determines how good of a car you can make it...
