Funny thing is, he (m4a1mustang) never really said much other than he really likes the Terminator Corbra's and it would beat a 370z. I see nothing wrong with that, first part is his opinion and the other part is fact.

Wait, he did say he likes cheese with his whine, not sure what your thoughts are on that?

:tup:

I'm not worried about it. This is a Z forum after all (granted most people here don't get that worked up about it), and he's new so if he wants to get all riled up... fine.

I do like his advice, though. If I was such a rustang junkie why do I have a full year and 17,000 miles on my Z already? :roflpuke2:

Well clearly you are waiting for the recall rednek posted about earlier today (not sure if you saw that thread).

That was my plan all along.

Back in March '09 I decided to settle for the Z because I knew Nissan was going to recall the car to install a turbo every time a faster car was released. :icon18::icon18:

I had a Terminator for 3 years and currently have a 370Z. The Terminator will dessimate the 370Z even if the Z had a good head start.

HUH? Im in for that, you said it here so it must be true too.

Hey man are you interested in a R-ATE graphix kit? I'll give you a great deal on it. :bowrofl:

This wouldnt even be a race. I have raced numerous Cobras in my 04 Viper and stock... they are fast. Not as fast as the Viper... not even close, but I have ran up against a few that were modded (and it didnt cost them much) and they gave me a good run. I havent ran a 370Z in the Viper... and probably never will... but I did beat one pretty bad a few weeks ago in Dallas while driving my Jeep SRT-8. In all fairness it was from a stop... so he didnt have a chance.

how many hp is it worth?

You'll basically be as fast as a V10 R8. :tup:

ftw!!

I thought I was that fast already! Damn it Jim!

:bs:

I did a 1/4 mile track double-play on a Viper R/T 10 with my Cobra. I beat him by a bumper each time. The only mods I had:

CAI
Flowmaster catback
Superchip custom tune
STOCK blower pulley

I also killed a Charger SRT8 and Vette C5 as well in separate 1/4 mile runs.

You know first hand how dependent the car is on a good driver, though. I've seen stock ones stuck in the 13s because of shitty launches.

The best I have seen was a friend in his stock 10th Anniversary go 12.4 @ 112 on a high 1.9 60'. Of course the car didn't stay stock for long. I remember back then you could get a pulley and tune for $500. :icon18:

Viper RT/10s are really nothing to brag about. The first generation Viper RT/10 was 400hp, 0-60 4.6 and quarter in 13.1. My Jeep will beat that. Second Gen was 450hp, 0-60 in 4.0 and quarter in 12.2. I have a Gen 3... 510hp, 0-60 in under 4.0 and quarter in 11.7s. Mine wasnt stock though... intake, full Corsa exhaust and a few other little goodies. The other problem with Vipers is you REALLY have to be a good driver to get the performance out of them. No traction control or nanny tech... so you get 85% of your 525lb-ft by 2,000rpm. So lots of wheel hop and the back end will get crazy on you. It took me a long time to learn how to drive it... and I wont even begon to claim I am good at it. The Jeep on the other hand... punch it and it goes. All wheel drive and the gearing makes it a beast off the line. Much faster launch than the Viper... and really anything else I have ran into. Cobras though will eat me up after 40mph and keep on going. great performance for the buck. The only issue I have with them is they are a Mustang... lots of plastic and not much for quality.
