the only 350z i’ve seen that hammers is that ls2 swapped one, the rest of em are slugs with no grunt, even all the videos online being twin turbo and shit, they suck.

I never sell skis. lol I tend to collect them. I mostly own sport class skis aka Waveblasters and Seadoo HX’s that are heavily modded. I hate couches. I have a couple standups and two runabouts aka couches for g/f-friends to ride.

My friend Noah downstate had an LS2 swap with Spray and dual exhaust. It was a beast. The car was stolen. A 500+ whp Z with a power to weight ratio of 6:1 is no slouch. No turbo lag with twins. There are several LS swaps downstate. I believe someone is doing an LS7 swap now on the forum.

^^^^ I’ll have to keep my eyes open for it. I haven’t gone yet this season. I gotta goto the next drift event to sell some tires. Curious to see how that event is at LV.

Most people that goto LV have prolly seen Tyler’s silver Vortech SC 350z DE. He has since sold it but it ran mid 11’s on DR’s. Only had 420-425 whp just to give you some perspective. Fast car!

Thanks for all the help guys. Just wanted to update everyone on the forum. Dan Carlton actually came over to my house last night. He spent a few hours going over some setup sheets and suggestions he had concerning autocross and track setup. I will say one thing, I have raced SCCA for many years in a few classes, but I learned more last night over coffee then I ever learned at expensive class instruction. I have no idea why he was willing to take the time to help me, but I was impressed by his knowledge. This guy gets it. He was all about “balance” he said the key was having the right setup and tire pressure. Horsepower is good he said, but if you cant get the power to the ground and the handling straight you will not be a contender.You could tell he loved big power, but he said it has been proven time and time again that balance is the key. He was more than forward in saying a well prepared car will shame the big HP guys if you take the time to get the setup right. I just wanted to thank everyone for the advice. I also wanted to thank Dan for taking the time to help a stranger with nothing expected in return.

Setup is key. I was romping on an F430 and a couple R35 GTRs earlier at LRP, and I was in my 350bhp M3.
