hey all

after yeseterdays meet with the civics...i was going home with steve..(totti)
at the lights to pennanthills road a balck 300zx pulled behind up behind
as we turned the ZX past took the other lane...
as the zx was about to go past i droped it into 2nd and planeted all the way.
i thought i was going to get munched but suprisingly i was neck and neck with him pulling a lil bit infront..l in forth gear the zx pulled off and so did i went past him and he gave me the thumbs up :D

well i thinki can kill him once i have my CAI EXHAUST and alligment fitted up properly...

but i neva knew my car will b that fast

300zx is a heavy car, but has a lot of torque out of its engine. If it was a TT he should have blown you away with the torque it has, compared to lack there of on the B16. In saying that, it's still a nice little run between both cars if they were both N/A :D

i was toying with a boosted one once, it ate my b16a.

yes...was a very good run

being right behind the 300zx, i thought N/A's were absolute slugs???

maybe it was auto TT? would danny have a chance

On takeoff you would, mainly because of weight and power-to-weight ratio in Danny's car. After takeoff, different story :P

My mate has an NA 300ZX. Can keep up with him till about 2nd, then its all over. Thats in my non-VTEC beast :)

But the TT would kill him......

thats if the wheels dont fall off first :D

Hmm, this is interesting... I dragged off a NA 300zx manual my mate bought a while back. Even being FWD I smoked it off the line, but it was pretty close, I think I had half a body length on him at the top of 4th gear...

[[d a n n y]]
15-03-2004, 10:56 AM
hm..that's intresting... :P

McChook
15-03-2004, 11:03 AM
the manual 300zxs have a really tall first gear (so does the prelude, but not as bad), so with a perfect launch in the prelude, I get about a length on the 300zx at 90km/hr.

[[d a n n y]]
15-03-2004, 11:05 AM
oh...perfect lanunch ?

nah...

i didnt launch at second gear rolling start from about 60k's in 3rd

McChook
15-03-2004, 11:13 AM
Then, being a B16a, you'll get lunched... The 300zxs have too much torque from then on. Try a standing start, you should remain pretty close. Plus, being auto, it prolly dropped to2nd, which is a big dasadvantage to you.

[[d a n n y]]
15-03-2004, 11:17 AM
hm...yeah i chucked back in to 2nd mate...sorry for mess up english..

but anywayz

i didnt fully eat him buy beat him by a half a car...

rolling start from 60k's in 3rd to 2nd gear...

McChook
15-03-2004, 02:29 PM
Thats not too bad, but your catching the 300xz where it likes to be.. they like to have momentum before they accellerate

I had a drag this afternoon against a NA Supra... they are simillar but slightly quicker... Still beat it

[[d a n n y]]
15-03-2004, 02:56 PM
u beat? N/A supras?

hm...that means jon can beat it too?

anywayz...

tell me more about it

McChook
15-03-2004, 03:08 PM
Doubt it.... I only lose to Jon with a dead clutch and bald tyres... a fixed scenario

totti

Guestlove used to own a 95 N/A supra, he ran 15.4 with 18in wheels

he says he has kept up with a few DC2R's

the 300zx could of been a manual, couldn't tell coz it was stock standard
