camaro Z28 vs. 350Z

[stacEbabe]

I made a bet with a few friends that the 350Z, with mods added, would be able to beat a '94 camaro Z28 also with mods added. I'm kind of new at this and I'm not sure if I stand a chance at beating him???:smoker2:

[itsmeek]

if they are the same mods i believe the camaro will easily win. i've owned both types of cars and the camaro 6 speed was way faster.

[itsmeek]

er never mind

i didn't see that it said 350 z. haven't owned one of those

[ktm704]

350 z...

[JeffreyGB]

From what I'm hearing, you don't get the max output on a 350Z until after you've broken it in. Drive 1500 miles or so before you start expecting it's top performance.

There are only a couple of modifications available for the 350 as of yet. So, I don't think you can heavily modify the engine. As for the race I would have to go with the Z! With the modifications available the Z put's out around 297hp! Not bad for intake & exhaust. I'm just waiting a couple years for a supercharged or turbo version! Then I will own one...I guess I'll just have to put up with the 95'!

the camaroe will win in my opinion, i've moded my na z to right under 300 ponies and my brother owns a 95 z28 with filter and hurst shifter but besides that stock, and we raced up a the mountain we live on back home, and i blew him away in the turns up the bottom part but as soon as we got to were that v8 could breath it was all over with, so i believe the 350z would not win

[DemonZX]

Well if you were racing up a mountain, I think the torque is where he beat you. He had the V8 vs. the 6, Deffinatly more torque.

[Gradyman25]

true but even if we raced on the interstate, the thing will pin the needle at 150 with only 4k rpm, so who knows i guess i'd have to see a 350z in action, but from what i hear they arent that fast

[Jordass2986]

i've raced modded 02' Mustang GT's and beaten them, and all i modded was: a jwt ecu upgrade, custom 3.25" exhaust, HKS boost controller, and a cheap front mount intercooler (~335hp) and i toasted him, i also raced my friends 97 Cobra, and i had him...before he hit the Nitrous LoL!





That shit is crazy; especially after he uses it, and there's still fumes in his pipes, and he revvs it (about 6k rpm) and flames will shoot out of his exhaust way cool

[Jordass2986]

My friend beat a stock Z28 in his dads stock 300zx (naturally aspirated). I thought his Z was gonna get stompede...but it actually won (even though my friends dad has a purple Z lol) I think it depends how far thier racing, 1/8...1/4....200 miles, ya know?! i think the Z would have it at a 1/4 mi or more, but the torque on the camaro would probably have the Wholeshot

[Gradyman25]

um he didnt beat a stock z28 with a stock n/a 300zx, unless ya'll were racing and he didnt know it, sorry, the only time that would happen would be on an extremely windy road, anywhere else the Z would have got destroyed, i know cause my brother has a stock z28, and i have a n/a 300zx with some mods and i dont have a chance except in the turns.

[Lt1pwr]

Sweet car, chances are you will lose though. Lt1s are choked by the stock intake and exhaust, when you open those up they turn into very different beasts(I should know I have a 93 z28). Headers alone have been known to add 40hp!!! There is no way a na 300zx would beat a z28 it was probably a v6 camaro. Good luck

[Scottie300z]

Hey Gradyman25, race him from a roll and see how good of a race it is.

Maybe 40 ro 50 mph and downshift into 2nd.

[Gradyman25]

Lt1pwr, i agree totally with you, and Scottie, i have raced him from a role, everywhere from 40mph-100mph, i dont do that bad, but the point is i couldnt beat him unless i had some more mods on my car so a stock 300z would deffinately not have a chance.
