We sprayed the ever living hell out of the car! its seen a couple 350hits to race some bikes...

This was all done on a stock rear end, granted the car was auto if it was 6speed the rear would have gone out along time ago.

 

We also sprayed the **** out of a 18G talon with HKS 272 cams and a 125 shot!


That DSM loved spray!

 

It's not that I was trying to use money as an excuse, I just wanted to note that he had to put 30 grand into his car to make the kind of power LS1 will make with 5-7 grand worth of work. While his car is very fast and respectable, for $30,000 I'd expect more than 600whp... That's all I wanted to say

 

How much money did he spend refilling the bottle for 4 year's? How long does a decent sized bottle last 50-60 seconds? That's a lot of seconds in 4 year's.

Call me a nitrous sissy all you want #1 I plan to go the nitrous route with my next car. #2 I'm not gonna bother wasting time with the insulting game, plus u drive a dsm too, I don't like insulting fellow dsm owner's, lol, I was too busy playing with boost myself to use nitrous before in my last dsm.

 

How could the stock 450rwhp C6 Z06 beat the 500+ rwhp supercharged heads/cam LS1 Camaro SS and 470 rwhp heads/cam C5 that it did in other videos (and not by a little, both got creamed IMO)? How could the same Z06 run door to door from highway runs w/ a 500+ rwhp Ford GT? Because it's an awesome ride that that is more than just a typical 450rwhp car. Because it's a whole package that works extremely well as a whole...

You can make all the excuses you want for said 350Z, you're basing your whole argument on one 1/4 run (that is pretty crappy granted), but this video wasn't a 1/4 run. Beyond that, this isn't the only 500 ish rwhp car Fadi's Z06 has owned, the videos are all over the freakin' place... The C6 Z06 is a monster for a stock car, plain and simple (and I wonder if this particular Z06 isn't a really strong example...).

 

I dont know, how much was spent but think about this

Its easy to finance a car then buying cash

Thats what nitrous is, monthly payments for power but without owning the car. Lol does that make sense? Its cheaper and easyer to pay for than going out and dropping 10k for a turbo setup etc



DSM are Junk what is there to say? I speak the truth


They are cheap and fast

 

Fair enough. S'all good, lol. It always take's me to see that a thread has gone a good 3-4 page's before I want to add my 2 cent's, lol.

 

You need to take into consideration, that most of the parts on the car where not intended to be performance parts. Here are my lists of parts:

Speedforceracing.com turbo kit- $6600(twin dual ball bearing 60-1)
Autobanh motorsports biult longblock $5500
Clutch-$2200
Fuel system-$1000
labor-$2500
Standalone-$3000
suspension-$1200
axles-$1100
tuning-$1000(guessing)

This is roughly 24000 give or take a little. My car will most likely hit 750-800rwhp with 20-24psi of boost. I could have bought a cheaper clutch(1000), turbokit(5000) and saved 2-3000 but I didnt. The point is, I have a reliable 700rwhp car.

You keep referring to him only making 600rwhp. His car is fully built and has the ability to push more if he chooses. 600rwhp to me is more than enough for the street.

I dont disagree with anything your saying, you have a good head on your shoulders.

 

Its not, thats the whole damn point! Dude look at Hide! With 400hp it was shearding apart drivetrain stuff.


You built a great roll on/ highway car that would pull on alot of things but for the 1/4 its not great at all.

 

It has been proven that the car that Fadi raced was not 550rwhp, more like 380rwhp or something like that. Let me ask you this. Why does the 350 that Fadi raced run 113 traps and the one in this vid runs 130+ traps with nearly identical rwhp #'s. Would Fadi or should I say the Z06 pull a stock viper like that.

 

Naa I know what your saying. It just depends if you want that power always on tap or just when needed. I was going along the line's of having it always when needed, but yeah I will concede if you go the nitrous route ls1 is def. the way to go, and no matter what it'll cost more on the 350z, they just can't handle as big of a shot as the ls1 can without putting a lot more stress on everything.

You daamn right. Think of it as comparing ls1's to dsms. Dsm parts are a lot cheaper to mod and the whole car is cheaper to buy used, but does that make the dsm a better choice just cause it's cheaper to mod.

Actually nevermind, this may open up a whole new can of worms, I know I know ultimately the v8 will make more power and all that good stuff this was prob a bad example, I'm still a little hung over from last night, lol. But you sorta get what I'm saying? I just don't like the money excuse there's always cheaper ways to go about it, lol, bottom line!

 

Aint you supposed to be somewhere?

 

Same with you, sometime's you have to live and learn to realize that's it's easier said than done. I mean we can talk all we want about how much easier and cheaper it'll be to mod this or that, but there are always so many hidden costs.

 

I have no roll cage in the deuce. So I have no chance to practice at a track. I think my mph indicates the potential of the car, being it is 134mph. I ran a 11.2 at 134 with a 2.2 60ft on street tires. This was done on 27psi not the 35psi I have bumped it up to.

 

True indeed.

 

At the Grove a civic ran 12.9 and trapped 129mph!!!!!


The car just cant hook, Trap speed gives you a idea of the car


But really you cannot use trap speed, its like a cheap A/F gauge it barly works and isnt the best thing to use....










Guys this has been good, sorry If I wasnt as civil but im glad we could talk about a topic in a good manor. I hope it keeps going

 

I agree

 

Can you get to Starbucks in 5mins?
