Question stock horse power?

I know the fc's bhp but can anybody tell me what the hp is at the wheels for an S4 in stock conditions N/a.

P.S. Would anyone know what a 350z pulls at the wheels also?

Figure out the power:weight ratios of both cars. Figure out how much hp you need to get to the same, or a little more. Throw on some sticky tires and you win (an educated guess... I guess )

350z is listed at 287hp with a curb weight of 3188

to match that ratio and a little more you'd need like ~250 hp with a 2750 lb rx7

By the way...that's the same for the NSX, S2000, and a few other icons, in case you were wondering.

a 200 hp NA rx7 on stock ports is pretty amazing much less impossible. FI will break the barrier, but youll be spending alot of money doing it. -Gabe

Woah woah woah! According to that specs site, the 89 GTU has only single piston caliper front brakes?

Say it ain't so!
