z eliminator do you feel that the breather mods were more the reason why you got into the 12's vs. the gear diff. I read your post wrong when talking about wheelspin I'm assuming due to the diff. I'm...

Z eliminator you are the man. I was worried the gear diff. would make the car spin tire all day especially with extra power from the mods but it seems it'll be all right. I'm finally proven right...

Why are you switching to the fast intentions?...

Why are you switching to the fast intentions? They theoretically dyno to very similar numbers, I'd agree that the f.i. is better sounding and better quality but I dont' see how its worth losing 500...

I'd like to start a thread showing mileage of Z's with hfcs and if there have been any problems. I'm looking to get berk's but with the huge gains from the F.I. catback alone (minimal gains with...

I'm having an argument with a guy online with the evo vs. the Z stock for stock. I've went against my friend's X and just blew past him once I got into 3rd gear. I"m arguing that the only reason they...

I have no problem arguing. It's impossible for the new gen. m3 to be the same weight as the last gen. The last gen. m3 weighed right around your estimate for the new one at3400 lbs (1550 kg). The new...

You might be referring to the E46 m3 last gen. The new V8 m3 weighs around 3700 lbs or 1681 kg. At most the 370z weighs 3350 lbs or 1522 kg and thats being generous. I have a base model which...

I'd say they're similar in overall grip. The Z might have a slight advantage in handling at the track being much lighter but still not enough to overcome the power disadvantage to the M in lap times....

The M3 is a technological marvel but revs to 8300 not 9k rpm. He has a stick not a smg which is the way it should be. With a reflash the Z has an 8100 rpm limit so not that far off. Again I've seen...

Clarkson didnt' like the 2003 350z because it felt cheap, wasn't exciting to drive, too heavy, and not fast enough. The 370 has a far better interior, feels much more lively, handles much better,...

To respond to Phimosis, Edmunds is pretty horrible at running cars, I'd stick with motortrend at 12.7 to be fair to the m3 with a similar trap speed around 111. Motortrend has the Z at 13.3 at 107....

I'm confused I thought that the stillen catback had a y-pipe design while the invidia is the only one I know of with an x-pipe.
