You raced non turbos or poor condition TT's.

I've taken 3 of these clown cars that were running just fine, and I'd prolly have a close race with my daily

Hmmm...ok...how about the bullshit pistons, rods, and rod bolts
used in the LS1 bottom end? The stock shortblock will only handle
around 600rwhp before it lets go...and that is really pushing it.
I personally wouldn't go over 500-500rwhp with a stock short block.
You act as if pistons and rods are no big deal..."oh, there's nothing
else to do except for pistons and rods."
Well, guess what...
those will let go easily. GM might as well have used duct tape instead
of the BS rod bolts they used.

ALUMINUM IS FOR BEER CANS! Which is apparently what GM's engineering division was drinking out of when they made the LS1...

BTW, A 300zx will dyno at over 260whp bone stock at 9 psi. The stock turbos and injectors are capable of 15psi, which ussually yeilds over 350whp and very impressive torque. As a matter of fact, I've NEVER seen a modded 300zx dyno with less torque than HP.
I attached an example of STOCK injectors, turbos, etc.
I actually coulnd't care too much if others care, listen to me, or acknowledge the Z. I know what's up, like how the Z (since 1970) was the best selling car in it's class in history, and I plan on shouting it...
BTW, the 300zx (slick top) was labeled one of the sexiest cars ever made (top 25) by automobile magazine. To take that into perspective, they labeled the 63 Corvette stingray the #1 sexiest car.

That just proves that I disagree with the people who made the list. I don't personally think the 63 Vette looks overly good either.
