thats what happens when you take a brick and try to go well into the tripple digits with it…its like driving through hurricane winds against you.

I’m pretty sure the GT-R has a lower drag coefficient than your catfish. :rofl

Yupp  
R35=0.27  
Camaro SS=.34

Therefore your car is the more brickier of the two.

Yours doesn’t “fall on it’s face” because it’s lighter, has more power, and the gearing is different.

I’m pretty sure that having lowering springs on only the front of your car is not going to reduce your drag that much.

I’m also pretty sure that that R35 is faster than your car. I may be wrong though. 😉

If anything, only having the front lowered will INCREASE the cd thanks to more frontal surface area due to how the car sits uneven.

I bet the R35 doesn’t blow sideways across 3 lanes of traffic when you drop into 3rd on the gas.

you realize that’s a 700hp car, right? I’m talking about the ridiculous tranny/clutch slippage when he shifts to **5th** not the final gear…re-watch it if you don’t understand, count the gears.

It is indeed clutch slippage. The funny thing though is that uprated clutch discs are part of the 700 package :shifty
