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?

too many varibles...you gets no answer!

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

Don't steal all the popcorn!!

I won't *offers the bag* this is gonna be a good one:happydance:

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.

+1

but which one could withstand a hit from Godzilla on the quarter panels better?

this should be good!

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

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



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

Fine, ill weigh in. Closest to a 370 I ran was a 265whp modded 350z.60-115 I put 2 cars on it. I have ran plenty of new camaros and was dead even every time. Those tend to inch on the z based on YouTube. Sorry for the ricer comparisons, that's all I've got from my fbody days.

You must agree with captain little limp noodle or the roids will make his tiny head splode.

id give the edge to the Z

:drama:

Prior to my 2009 Z, my previous car was a 1999 WS6 (which I drove for 10 years or so), so I can at least provide you with some subjective reference.

With a perfect driver in both, and the kind of mild bolt-ons, tire/wheel changes, etc you'd expect from someone running at a dragstrip, I'd give the 1/4-mile edge to the WS6. In any case, with any level of driver it's going to be more about car prep and driver skill/luck than the cars, they're close enough.

Handling stuff: For a muscle car of its era, the WS6 actually handles really well (especially with a few mild upgrades: swaybars, shocks, etc). But even a stock Z blows it away by miles on all aspects of cornering, especially feedback to the driver. Comparatively speaking, that WS6 feels like a big iron boat.

Why yes it will! ...at least in a straight line that is. Lol!

i think i've run into one of those before:roflpuke2:
