Z's are good for handeling and with out a tt setup are slow. you should have no problem as long as you hook up some what.

With all the mods you have you should be fine.
That's if you hook up right on the road.

Both yur cars weight about the same his weights 45 pounds less. He does have the hp but you have more torque.

Go fry some rice!
Tell us how it goes.

im making around 280 hp, how much rwhp does the 350z put down?

ok awesome i honestly like the 350z's but not this one. it belongs to a cocky ass ricer who imo ruined it. its funny cause i half expect to get the same answer out of him as i did his friend last weekend. his buddy owns an 06 eclipse all riced out wit lambo doors adn all kinds of crap, he was racing old ass 95 honds and winning and reving around so i pulled up to him and asked if he would race and his exact words were "what, that cobra?? no way man haha" lol but i hope the 350z wants some! the last good race i had was a 95 or 96 camaro z28

How high are you racing too? I wouldn't count him out. Those new Z's with the rev motor are nothing to sneeze at. I say that it will be a driver's race.

We do know that ROAD RACING is NOT synonymous with STREET RACING, right?

On the highway, you may win, who cares, all street racing proves is which moron is willing to go to jail first.

On the track, such as Watkins Glen, Road Atlanta, Little Talledega, Leguna Secca, Roebling Road, a 350z will destroy (DEESTROY) an SN-95.

Yeah,
-Dave

Thank you. I keep wondering why people post street racing stories in the road racing section. We have a kills section for that... lol

And, yes the Z would murder the SN-95 on a road course if the SN95 was stock. But if you were to do a package such as MM, Steeda, or Griggs to the Stang then the tides would change.

But we're not talking about actual racing . . . .*sigh*

You're right though, some fair tuning, but stock for stock, there's no way, the Z33 just handles too well. SN-95s have a bad chassis for . . .well . . .everything other than straight line, but that doesn't mean we can't be tuned well.
