350Z Nissan VS. MUSTANG.. not good story
 
A lady at work has a 350Z and she was talking smack so one night after work I got behind her and we run them up.. I should have past her when I had the chance 0-70mph no contest MUSTANG all day but when my car hit REV limiter in 4th she kept going.. hahaha thats 6250 rpms 4th gear at 135 mph she walked away, NOT GOOD what do you guys think of that

400EXGuy,

Don't feel bad man. The only similarity in the two cars is rear-wheel drive. If she has the Track or 35th Anniversary edition it packing 300 HP/260LBTQ in a little light weight V-6... LOL... and that is still naturally aspirated! Now if you would have told me that it was a BMW Z-4 or an Audi TT. I would have cringed! LOL

They are well engineered vehicles. The drivetrain is fairly advanced and well built. 6 speed manual or 5 speed auto....Mid range HP/TQ bands....Nah.. No shame..Did you get to a dead stop before running them up?

I am a Mustang fan and always will be, I've had the pleasure of owning 3 different generations. But, I always know my competition BEFORE I run 'em. Saves the embarrassment. Call a spade, a spade and give the lady some credit. I think gender has VERY little to do with it. LOL.. Fat0eknee...Geez... Unfair and not really taht funny of a comment... Ha Ha Ha..

I think you need more shit on your Mustang. Either that or get a tune. My SHO can beat them at the track, and it has 178k miles on it....

I beat a 350Z with my number 4 injector unpluged. I still ran a 13.55 @99mph :D

But are you guys running 135+ in the quarter? He said up to 70 was no contest.

What kind of stang do you have? You need a dead stop even start.....Just mod it now....ask for a rematch.

My stang probably only goes 135mph maxed out with 3.73 gears and 26 inch tires.

I bet I would put 15-20 cars on a 3250Z before I ran out of gear. :D

I'm still waiting to get next to a 350z. I haven't seen any at the drag strip when i race.

I wouldn't say they're all that light at 3200 lbs. Shouldn't be a problem in the 1/4 if you get a decent launch. Racing through anything more than 4th gear just puts you at a huge disadvantage compared to a car with closer gear ratios...
