    Default 470+whp Z32?

    So does anyone know who has a blue 470whp Z32 300zx? I raced him on 400N earlier tonight, but I never got his name. I pulled him by a few cars (I'm not sure how many), but we ran to 160mph, and I just kept pulling away. When he rolled the window down after the run, right around exit 9, he said he was making 470whp. Anyone know who he is, or if he's on here? It was just a brief, 15sec conversation, with the windows down, at hwy speeds, so no other info was exchanged. Just curious...

    BTW, I have the white SC300 with bronze WORK wheels.

    Damn, nobody knows the guy. I'll safely assume it was built by Z1, since they build most of the fast 300ZX's, but I was hoping he'd be on here.

    No, it wasn't that one. The exhaust was different. I make a good bit of power, and he was only 2-3 cars back at like 90mph. As the speed increased, it got worse, to at which point I had like 6+ cars or so I'm guessing, but I know how much I'm making, so what he told me has to be pretty accurate. Actually, I think he was making a bit more, but I don't know for sure.

    He stayed with you the first three runs. Until the last run when you started beating him and he let off. But he did say he got owned.

    That's cool. He was a bit quicker than I thought he'd be, but as speeds increased, the gap just got bigger. It was a nice car though, and fun little run.

    Here is one someone took from awhile ago. Not the best pic, but you get the idea. I'll take a few pics tomorrow though, and post up some others of the inside of the car, and some closer/clearer ones.

    I've seen that car over at Z1 before. Definitely not a slow car, nice kill.

    No clue. Never checked. Probably as much as a supra. In stock form, they're within 35lbs or so of one. Mine has Sparcos, which save about 70lbs, and getting rid of stock twins has saved some weight too, but FMIC, and piping adds a bit. I really don't know though.

    Nice SC...your screen name leads me to believe that you have a DSM. Do you? Any pics of that?

    I've got a couple of them. Both are 1G's, with one of them being an AWD that ran mid 10's, while the other was a FWD street car I built that had 600whp. I really don't put too much time or effort into them anymore though, as they are the biggest money pits I've had. Maybe I'll bring out the AWD one again though. I have some pics of the AWD one on my other computer. I just gotta go dig them up.

    Yep. They were there for a good bit, but they've been gone for awhile now.

    Numbers aren't important. I'm making more than he is, I will say that much. It was a pretty quick Z though, and I don't really see those all that often, so if anything, I was more impressed with his car.

    I'll tell you the details Ellingwood, but only if we get to scrap it out right after I tell you! That way I can kill you and seal the secret forever! LOL.

    Fair enough. Both seem like badass rides.

    I just don't like to discuss numbers and bench race with people. Simple as that. Everything turns into the "whose **** is bigger" contest, and I don't have time for that BS. I would rather just keep specific setups/numbers to myself.

    He's lying. The car makes 183whp and 1392 Ft/Lbs of Torque on diesel....at 11lbs of boost.
