i NEED to race an s2000

ive been dying to race an S2000 win or lose. ive had 2 chances and they both didnt want to race, im sick of old people bying fast cars and not going fast in them! whats the point of bying a trans am, vette,m3,s2000,saleen mustangs. hopefully ill find one next summer at the track. anywase i think it would be a good race the s2000 has 204whp and i forgot the wtq probably like 140 and weighs2810 and i got 188whp and 133wtq and weigh about 2350 so who do you guys think would win??? the s2000 is the one im really interested in but what about the rx8, 350z, srt-4, what do you think would happen in those races as well?
p.s i would not be useing n20. 188whp is w/out nitrous.

The S200 would be close MABY(depending on the driver)
RX8 would MABY (also depending on the driver)
350Z would own you
SRT-4 would own you(these things are bludie fast)

If you were to race an S2000 on the track you would most definetly lose to it. As well as the rest of the cars. They are all track onsters right from factory. The 350Z is amazing on the track, as well as the very sharp handling RX8 and S2000. The SRT-4 would not fair as well on the track as the others bout it could hold its own.

ur pretty dumb...stock rx8s and 350zs cant touch a srt-4 if they wanted to...

bad idea to call someone dumb on a public forum , quick way to get banned. On a track, WITH TURNS an SRT-4 is not very well suited. I have seen it in person at a race track. It is bluddie fast in a straight line. But the RX8 can out handle the SRT-4 and so can a 350Z. And the 350Z can do low 13's on the strip. So im not quite sure what you are talking about. The 350Z can also out handle the SRT-4.

Im not sure about the RX8 in the 1/4 but it isnt that slow, and it could definetly take it on a track.

PS by track i mean not a 1/4 strip, i mean a track like the ones with turns.

first off...ur dumb

no 350z stock is gunna run 13s...period
rx8s arent half as bad as rx7s
and $ for $, theres nuthin u could do to either of em to make em faster 1/4 mile than an srt-4

gee the sites Administrator has a 350Z that he ran a 13.69 with a bad tranny and you are teling me that they cant. Oops your wrong.

I never mentioned an RX7, but yes it is better tna the RX8 in my opinion. And the RX8 does mid to low 14's on the strip.

And the SRT-4 does 14.2 stock. So umm, yes both of them could beat an SRT-4.

Looks like the SRT-4 isnt the best out there. O and if you like you can argue with the site admin about how fast his stock track eddition 350z is cuase he will gladly converse with you about it.

The SRT-4 is fast, no dought about it but there are faster cars and the 350Z, S2000 and RX8 are some of them.

Im guessing you own an SRT-4. Well if you do, you dont own the best car out there. My 300Zx can beat your car, a guy on here has beat one in his Cav-e, and many other SRT-4's have fallen.

The only thing the SRT-4 has versus all of the bad ass cars talked about is price. the base price on them is ungodly low but guess what they are all getting recalled because they are not truly street legal. they are fast but so are the others (350Z A+, RX8 A+, S2000 A+++ and by the looks of it this guys 300Z TT). SRT-4 is not worth all the hype it gets. it is a good car but it is not a roadster or RWD! nuf said

Y arent they street legal?

But most everyone I know gives the car props. Uts fast, but it seems like a few guys on herer thing its faster than everything. Im sorry but the info dosent lie. There are faster cars. But the SRT-4 is quite amazing IMO.

aparently people like ibsix that drive gmc sonoma's are experts about all cars that they do not own and probablly have never driven

LOL

Thats the impression i got from him as well. But he seems to not be to intrested in talking baout the subject any more.

O well

LOL

sry, i jus had better shit to do than sit on here all day...

again first off, u...r...dumb

if u read wut i said again, i wrote DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR, NONE OF UR CARS CAN TOUCH A SRT-4, PERIOD...

for the price of a 350z...u can get a srt-4, n still have like 10-15 thousand for mods...sry take ur 350 back to the drawing boards

you would need 10 - 15 grand just to make your srt4 look half as good as the fore mentioned cars . they are fugly as hell !! I dont care if it has a turbo , its still a neon !! that would be like ford putting a turbo in a probe and making 260 hp , it would still be an ugly ass probe that moves fast !! Ask some fine ass honey's if they would rather ride in a srt4 or a rx8/s2000/350 z ..........

no amount of money can get an SRT-4 to look close to what a 350Z or RX8 or even an S2000.

By the way an SRT-4 sells for about 24000 and a 350Z sells for 26000. I checked with the dealers sites.

So a 2000$ difference, umm i think i would get the 350Z and walk all over the SRT-4, it would be worth the extra 2000.

And if im such a dumb person, y is it that i make a living fixing cars that cost as much as homes??? Seems kinda strange to me.

But if you said it, then it must be true.

why aren't you guys putting the evo and sti in the catagory? (just curious)

and btw, my ex co-workers (who's 26 and 22 years old) own a 2002 m3 and 2001 s2k.

WEll if you would like to add the STi and EVo then they will be added.

So for the same or near the same money you can ppick up an EVo. They are faster, and handle better, launch better. As does the STi.

Do one here was trying to diss the SRT-4, but now your arguing about it has made it look that way. You need to understand that there are better vehicles out there in the same price range.

PS: PT Cruiser Turbo and SRT-4, Same thing, the SRT-4 just has 10 more hp, and a different body. O and the PT cruiser is built on the same platform as the SRT-4.

alot of people auto X the S2000 I know of one team that races in the Mid-west Honda challenge, http://www.teamtoilet.com/ , alot of dough they dropped on preparing the s2000. I have seen a few people with BMW M3 and Vipers, they race them as well, BMW and VIPER have their own club with their own track events they race alot.

p.s. don't tell the Mustang guys but the TEAM toilet S2000 beat them on the track :smile:

Dont worrie about telling them,most of them will admit that an import will rock them on a track with turns. But most of the time the Mustangs will win on the straights. Its ok tho, my 300ZX will take a stang on the straights and in the corners:D

Most Mustang owners are pretty good about that kind of thing. They know the limitations of there car and have the balls to say that they can be beaten by an import. The ones that dont are usualy younger guys who think that because it has lots of powere that nothing can touch it.

But let whomever think whatever they like. Cause when it comes down to it, the know what is the truth, and if they dont the will when they lose.

i was only adding the cars that i would have a chance with. thats why i didnt add the sti and evo. srt-4 are quick but they are ugly, not to mention its a neon 4door! hey turbo944 your not saying the pt cruiser is as fast as the srt-4 r u? cause ive beat a pt cruiser from a stop and got about 2 cars by 70

Nope, not sayin git is as fast, just saying that the cars are almost identical in the design aspect. Both have the 2.4 liter DOHC 4cylinder, the PT just has 10less hp. But it weighs more and is uglier than the SRT-4.

The SRT-4 is deffinetly faster than the PT but they are VERY similar. Sorry, i said it a little confusing in the last post.

go ahead and fill ur car wit ur fly ass honeys...and when u pull up to a light actin like a hard ass n get taken hard by a "ugly ass 4dr neon wit a turbo" dont say nething when ur fly honeys r clownin u n jockin the neon after

Dude if i pulled to a light in a 350Z track with a honey i could still smoke your SRT-4. LOL

So not only do i make you "ugly ass 4dr neon wit a turbo" look bad, but i have a honey in the car when i do it.

haha too bad u dont have a 350 or any honeys in ur car tho....ok thats about enough of me makin jokes n such, im done

ya i just have a 300ZX TT, Darn , nun of the ladies like that thing :D

just a few comments, i heard the srt-4 runs 13's straight outta the box since their high torq is so helpful in the launch, my friend wanted to get one for the speed so i did a bit of reading, but it is true that the suspension def cant compete with the imports, also for the s2k its 240 hp and 153 tq so saying its 140 wtq is proly very close but bear in mind that the s2k has 80% of the tq available at about like 3500 rpm so the tq comes in mad fast as long as your not trying to stretch the gears that far even though it is a high revving motor, but personally i dont think the gs-r can take an s2000 since the teg only beats the s2000 in weight cause its about 200 lbs lighter but the s2000 has 70 more hp, and 15 more tq, so in my opinion unless your a better driver and get a much better launch you wont be able to beat it. but thats just my 2c ive never seen an integra race an s2000 just speculating.

do you know me ? no ! ever seen me ?? no! have we ever spoken before ?? no ! so you have no grounds whatsoever as to tell me what kind of things i have . I never said i had a 350 , dont really even want one ...and about the ladies jocking the neon just for beating somethin else , that sounds like a personal experience you must have had !

ibsixubnine03, don't mess with him, he's got a TT 300z :)

Which = rocking car.

i was talkin to 89turbo not u so calm down slick

it seems like ever since dodge made a decent performance car under $70k (that handles like shit for its price) all these domestic lovers get this big head and think they can own everything... and even though the neon has high torque it is still fwd which doesnt help it at all... the 350z already has turbos out that put down 417hp at the wheels without n/e other mods and the car is pretty much new... the dodge neon cant touch the capabuilities of the z... im expecting z's in the thousands in a couple years, though it may not happen since it doesnt come from the show room with turbos..

oh yeah... and cheap (since u are talking the neons price) is not attractive to women... lol if i pulled up in a geo metro with a swapped v8 and smoked a guy in a z06 i doubt they would be flockin :2cents:

i was talkin to 89turbo not u so calm down slick
i thought you were talking to me , because I was the one that said the shit about the fine ass honey's . but it doesnt matter , im not stressin it

Well, it looks like i will be buying a Nissan 350Z Track edition in the near feature (a week or so) and i will see which car is faster. I have a friend with an SRT-4 and ill race him. We will see which is faster on the road.

And which one people like better.

hey, nething ive said here is jus my opinion n wut ive seen with my own eyes...here in vegas stock srt's r runnin low 14s and the 350s r a slow mid 15....so like i said, only wut ive seen...n i dont plan on buying either of these cars netime soon or have ne desire to ever have one, so its not a biased opinion

Personally, I think on a track it's more about driver skill than anything. Yes, you get an advantage when there's a stretch of straight road, but everything has to manuever (most of the time, slow down) at twists. It's harder than you'd think.

The SRT is a viable car, as is a 350Z. Its all personal preference.But typically American companies don't put as much emphasis in handling than do Jap companies, and as such, there are lots more imports on a course.

Well I don't think Nissan 350z are 15k more than a SRT-4. More like 7/8k. Ofcourse you have to make them have equal options etc but not 15k more.

hell ya! let us know how that goes forsure!

screw the 300z tt i wanna know about the gsx as a past owner of a gsx they are sweet as cars expecially wants modded i love the launches. btw what did you have in yours 89turbo

im suprised ubsix hasnt gotten banned yet lol and i doubt you have that much power with those mods intake header exhaust and intake manifold ummm naw unless you have more that your not saying

What you mean screw the 300ZX.???

LOL

I only have a HKS Racing BOV Type II, HKS EVC V, JIC FLT- A2's and a few other odds and ends. Nothing huge on the GSX. But she is quick stock.

the 350z is heavier than the srt but it has like 65 more hp than the 350z but then again it is a v6 rather than inline 4 so i think the torque is only thing keeping the srt4 from being blow away, i heard the 350z handles maaad nice but its got like it hits the point of understeering not gradually but like it snaps and you lose control so that ssomething you gotta watch out for, but yea 89 turbo tell us what you thinkabout the 350z compared to your 300zx im really interested, since hte 300zx is such a nice car, it still has the 350 beat by a few hp though and even more with your mods so itll be a close call me thinks

im jus suprised this thread is still goin wit all the bs thats in it...from me included
