I was just talking about basic performance upgrades on a 350z in my last post. And a hypothetical 350z that has been built with all that imaginary money you speak of has been around for a year already. The shop that did the tune on my car has built a 350z that has run a 9.35 and put out over 1200rwhp on a mustang dyno. Yes, that is a built engine, but they’re still using the 3.5 platform with the stock 6 speed. I would expect that most engines making that sort of power are built. And I don’t talk bench racing, just like I don’t talk all hard behind a keyboard. > > Putting a different engine in the STS proves what point exactly? You’ve changed the STS platform to compare it to a car that it isn’t meant to compare to in first place. Put a ls9 in a 350z and what does that mean? :dunno: Changing engines completely in cars like you’re talking about is really a pointless conversation cause it will never end. get the hell out of here. You don’t talk bench racing, but you’re quoting shit that other people have built. Lemme guess… next he’s gonna be your ‘buddy,’ and it’ll be 1700rwhp and crack off 8’s. on all season tires. in the rain. uphill. Basic performance upgrades on a 350z is still probably slow enough that you don’t actually need to wear a helmet at the track per NHRA rules (I’m embellishing a bit obviously) If you pull a motor out to build it and replace all of the parts with new ones (VQ35 based motor I’m guessing?), what’s the difference if you replace it with new parts that are different (LS9 in an STS). Just food for thought. I don’t care either way :op: --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/350-z-goes-down-tonight/202501)._
