2011 370z vs 2001 ws6
 
370z vs ws6 which one would win in a straight line and a roll? Also can a ws6 corner well?

Let's start with mods. Most Stock Ws6's can do a 13 flat stock.

Straight line would come down to driver, but I think the Z is faster. The Z weighs less and has more HP but alot less TQ. In the turns if both drivers where the same level the Z would leave it in the dust.

Stock for stock the ws6 is a mid 13 sec car. ours are low 13's.

As for a roll depends on how fast of a roll. a 10 mph roll id sway still towards the ws6 bc of the amount of tourqe the car has.

If you get into mods. Id almost promise u the ws6 would win. If you put 2k into both cars the WS6 would walk a 370 all day every day. those LS1 motors are animals.

Around a track the 370 would easily beat the Firebird.

Actually the LS1 was under-rated from the factory. It's assumed the LS1 made about 350 at the crank in the F-body's. Still, it is about 200lbs heavier than the Z.

I would say it's a drivers race with the edge going to the Z in a drag race. From a roll I would say it would be pretty even to about 100mph at which point the Z will start walking away slowly. I won't say specfically how I know this. As already mentioned, when you start talking about mods the WS6 will wind hands down.

As for how they corner. Everyone gives them a bad rap in this department, and I used to do the same, until I drove one. My girlfriend when we first started dating had both a 2001 TransAm and C6 Vette. I drove the TransAm a lot until we sold it last year. While it doesn't corner like the Z does it's still pretty decent and pretty easy to control. With a few $$ spent in suspension mods it will do very well on a auto-x or road course. There are couple guys in my local SCCA group that do very well with theirs.

ls1's are underrated. i think a ws6 would take a 370z. i almost got one before i got my z, but needed a car that i could put miles on without worrying

One_Quick_Z 10-02-2011 05:59 AM

Wow.... will a Geo Metro beat my 370Z?



Seriously dont ask such dumb questions which have no point in which to be answered
