Default me vs 370 nismo

Just like 5min ago I just picked up my buddy from work and a black nismo 370 lowerd and all fllashed his lights as he drove by us pullin out of the parking lot. He slowed down and let us catch up. He yelled wanna run and he said he wouldn't from a dig. So from 45 we did the honk thing and on tthe 3rd honk we bothh floored it he pulled upp alil on me but my car hit 3rd and started to pull away at 80. I let off and he did the usual fly by but he waved and was a good sport even tho he was cocky in the beginning I never understood the power these cars had untill just now

well 45 is quite a shitty spot for you being an a4 with no stall and all his m5 or m6 idk what they come with was probably right in the powerband and as soon as you got in yours you started to pull. But way to go now you gave some ******* false confidence he can take on american muscle, hes now going to go around thinking his car will take out a z06 lmao.

Their about the same speed as a stock LS1. Stock his car makes 350HP and weighs less then an Fbody, with a good driver their high 12 second cars.

they can make some peak hp but torque is what gets you moving down low i have yet to have a decent race with one. I ran one when I was just a lid/catback car and handed the dude his *** 3 times from a dig then switched drivers and same result. I dont see them being "super quick"

Yea right dont kid yourself a LS1 will beat a 370z 8 times out of 10 they are not high 12 second cars in any shape or form. Low 13's with an excellent driver. Ive raced many 370z's when I had my LS1 cars.

This race was from a roll... in that case, "down low," doesn't matter one bit. The 370Zs are still ~106mph trapspeed cars.

Equal drivers, a lightweight 6spd LS1 F-body will win most of the time... but not all LS1s are lightweight, and they aren't all 6spds. The automatic 370Zs are just as quick as the 6spd manuals.

Makes sense that he would jump out considering you're an auto. Get that thing stalled and you will be the one getting the jump out.

These things do trap in the 107 range and most stock ls1f bodies trapped in the 108 range. This should be a drivers race from a roll. From a dig the ls1 will yank it everytime if it don't spin. Once modding starts, mod for mod an ls based engine will reign supreme.

Turbo nods are a 370's friend. Once they go fi, they can be mid 11sec cars with no problem. Except for traction. good kill. Stall the bitch and yank him from a roll too.

That's because the reality is that a G37 or 370z is a solid 3-4mph and 2-3 tenths slower then a stock ls1 fbody in reality. It's all the bullshit, lying mods and negative da timeslips that give those nisssan owners a false sense of how fast there cars are that is the issue. They are close, true, but "close" as in a Mach 1 to a SS camaro: close but no cigar.

~in for the ten pages of bs explaining how a mach 1 is a drivers race with a ls1 fbody~
