240sx > 350z


Recommended Posts

Guest Nismo_Freak

I just got back from a very technical course in which I was racing down with the local area Z club. I started purposely from the back and passed all but 4 cars. Keep in mind we had about 26 cars in all.

Cars I passed include:

3 350Zs w/ bolt on mods like strut bars, springs, wheels/tires etc.

Numerous Z32 Twin Turbo 300Zs all pushing near the 400 hp mark.

Z32 N/a 300Zs

240,260,280Z's

Z31 300Zs

1 S14

I didnt catch up to some highly modded 260 and 280Zs that were just faster than hell. I caught up to the 260Z but he sped up.

Overall I was dissapointed in the 350Z's handling as I passed 2 of them on the INSIDE!

Of course im kinda cheating, running semi stock 350Zs

Before the run down the road I was chatting with some of the 350Z owners and they where saying they are gonna own the road. One cheeky fellow said he was an excellent "race car driver" in the SCCA. Needless to say I passed him. Some "Race car driver"

    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
