They are not beasts by any means or cheaper to mod than a gto or lsx. But they hold there own against quick cars. But its already been shown multiple times they die out hard uptop there's a full bolt on cobalt with I think 29psi who ran juice and every race he would get pulled top end

$40k 370's that can barely get around an LT1? Get your head out of the clouds. You want some real numbers? 28k. That's how much my car was listed before the trade in value. And I said it makes me feel confident through turns because the car feels solid and steady.

my car is full bolt on and a trifecta tune at only 24psi, and i assure you it does not die out up top


a GOOD tune is the key to these cars, not just psi

$32k msrp you got me there, I didn't say they can barely get around LT1's I said they run neck and neck. Where's the LT1 guy that beats up on 600 GSXR when you need him?

Driving an underpowered Miata or Mini Cooper will give you the same "solid and steady" feeling .


These post by Nissan fanboys are pathetic. My mullet mobile has walked away from nitrous and turbocharged 350Z's and I don't go post on Nissan GTR forums to brag about it.

I used to tear up 350z's with my 97 LT1 and all I had was a loudmouth catback. I bet one with just a few bolt ons and a nice tune up would be right with a 370 or beat it.

But then again I never hit the track with it either so I cant talk 1/4 numbers

At almost $40K they run neck in neck with a stock 1997 LT1.

370Z's need to pick on stock Cobalt SS and Hyundai Genesis!!!


Pretty soon we're going to have Smart car owners in here posting about beating GM Cavaliers!!!
If you run neck and neck with a stock LT1 in a 370Z, you apparently don't know which pedal is which...

Without being a dick (because I like them)... if 370Zs are for 30yr old women, what are TBSSs? You can't call a sports car a chick car when you drive a mom-mobile, just saying. All these people talking trash about 370Zs seem to forget that they run basically identical times as LS1s. My mom is on her second Corvette (current one is an '01 Z51/6spd), and I've seen more women drive Corvettes than 350Zs. So are Corvettes chick cars?

i have something else in the garage to turn heads

my car isnt classified as a sports car nor do i fail to realize other cars our faster than mine lol thats how i can say AUTO 370/350z's are 30 yr old women cars. only vettes i'd say are chicks cars are c4's and drop top c5 auto's. u cant compare a vette to 370z or 350z its a 1000x better car in every way

<----need to get multi-quote on the cell*



anyway, on the comment of "well take a CRX bla bla bla"

You cannot compare the difference in a loaded post 2009 car. Does said CRX have bluetooth, brembos, race seats & suspension, ipod connection, a slick 5sped with no-lift-shift, etc etc?

nope........



as someone said, its all relative. some of us got into a nice DD before they quit makin it and have the pleasure of whuppin an occasional GT on the way to the office then causing a stir here

some of you guys are always so much nicer to the slobalts in my kill threads
i think the 370's and their frequent association with cockiness brings the heat in kill threads.

Is that why you've been duckin the GTO for 3 months? Because I'm annoying?
It seems like when anyone at all disagrees with me, you're right there to pat them on the back. Does it really bother you that much???

I said both those things... that was my entire point the whole time . Someone with an 8yr old C5Z06 has no bearing to call a brand new car a waste of money just because it isn't as fast as their car.

Honestly, I don't think a regular C5 is a "1000x better car in every way" than a 370Z. Especially if you are talking about capabilities only. I love Corvettes, so of course I would rather have one just because it's a Corvette. I can understand liking one car over another just because though (just like I would take a C4 over a C5).

No offense to the cobalt owners but geez? comparing the fwd econocar to a rwd sports car with the legendary heritage of the Z? this is 4 pages of waisted time..

Good kill. but then again, you did beat a car that's almost a full second slower than yours lol

P.S. TBSS's have a cult following. and if we lose we'll just PUNT your POS out the way
