great kill ZGLASS and great looking Z06...those C5Z's don't quite get the respect that the C6Z does, and that is sad because the 5's weigh a lot less as well and look terrific...i love Z06's...

Well after I did my Head/cam last year I was thinking about going the C6Z06 route. But Then I had two of my main bearings go out on me. So I ended up doing this 402 build. Now I really don't want to go the C6Z route. Mine has more power by a good bit and more potential to push the power. I know I won't just drop a valve at random and take out the motor either. Going to do the build diff soon and shoot for some nice times at the track this summer NA. Maybe add more to it down the road 150-200 pills.

And there were only 352 Speedway White cars produced to boot. Love that color on the C5Z.

Well that's just it I couldn't push it threw the turn with the drag radial. Which is why he got out on me threw the turn. But once it straitened out that was all she wrote. I would have walked a good bit harder without the sweeping turn giving him the advantage in the start to the race. But I do have a pretty good power to weight advantage over them. It's amazing how the technology in those GTR's can make up for the lack of power with shifting so fast and never getting out of boost.

But yea I beat him on the highway as well right before we got to the stop light on the off ramp. He tried to ricer flyby me but i timed it pretty good. Stopped him at my rear bumper and pulled pretty hard at that speed. When He pulled up next to me at the light I got the WTF look. Was some 40ish year old Asain guy. He must have been pissed cause we both new we were going for it on the green LOL. I was just excited to get a good race finally! Nothing like a GTR cutting traffic behind you and blasting up to catch you to get your blood pumping!

I don't think he would worry about his car payments. Hell, some GT-R owners pay cash for their cars.

Yeah, I doubt too many people are dumb enough to purchase a $60+k used car if they can't afford it. But then again, I've been proven wrong time and time again about general common sense

Ha - this one kid my cousin in TX is friends with went out and bought a brand new $70k z06 a few years back. It now sits outside his apartment as he struggles to pay for the car, his apartment, his student loans, and general expenses. Then he brags about owning a C6Z
