I think going over that and you just lose the drivability of the car. If you want a car with over 500-550whp then make sure its AWD or its just a waste.

Give me streetable power any day.

Thats not true.. are you talking about the RWD platform? Or just the Z period?


Because of your talking about traction issues with RWD being the problem then what about all those 600-1000whp supras and or mustangs?


The Z is by far the hardest RWD car I have had problems launching with. Its so hard being consistent with this car as he never bites the same way for some reason. Low end .... yes spinning will be is issue with any FWD or RWD car but on the freeway top end.....

If I could do it again.... I'd get an Evo X but I just didn't want another 4 banger
