i've always considered the s2k v g35 stockers to be a close race. But, we were talking about a race not cruising from 50. The revup motor was a good addition to the platform and made the car a good bit better.
that is also why i said the g35 would be a better choice for a DD. less throttle for suberban driving. its also why i tell people that are looking at s2k's and want a city car to get an AP2 because they have that extra torque for suburban driving.
