TII vs G35
 
well this infiniti was cruising up the street and all of a sudden gave it some gas to get around traffic and so do i. we get to a light and start talking and i said that i wanted to know what my ol girl will do against the infiniti. the guy was with it so i revved to about 3k and when the light changed i was gone! i guess by the time it was over that i had about 5-6 cars on him and we both stopped at the next light. the driver finally comes up asked the year of my car and after i told him we were off. i actually was disappointed on the performance of the infiniti. i must say that the car is beautiful but not as fast as i thought. i was looking at car and driver and they said the infiniti is more Z than the 350z. i wonder if they know what they are talking about and the 350 is as slow as its luxurious brother?

nice kill! G350Z's arent so great :P

FC_DRIFTER 10-09-05 03:04 PM

I'd still take a G35 over my TII any day. :D Sexy as hell.

SayNoToPistons 10-09-05 03:05 PM

G35 "COUPE"? meh stupid rich boys in infiniti's...good kill!

kukri 10-09-05 05:31 PM

if you're tII is stock and he lost, he's a uber noob. G35 not any worse than 350z

i'm basically stock but still roasted the dude. both of us dropped the clutch at a higher rpm than idle at least i know i did and he was revving his motor. don't get me wrong the car is oh so tasty but performance wise i'm just disappointed. i assumed for the hp/tq it would've been a better race!

SayNoToPistons 10-09-05 10:35 PM

you sure it wasnt a sedan?

inuissus_cendi 10-10-05 01:02 AM

G35 is worse because it weighs more, if i remember correctly. close call though. nice kill.

SoontobeLS1'd 10-10-05 02:01 AM

they are actually both kinda lame. heavy, sluggish, body-rolling.

tjeter 10-10-05 07:17 AM

dude i don't know about you, but i got womped by a G35 coupe from a roll man, and i've got a turboback,fcd,intake, walbro fuel pump, he got me by about two cars but i want to run him again it felt weird, after i changed my fuel filter everything seems to run much smoother. also i've got a small vac leak in my tid so maybe thats it lol.

spimp 10-10-05 07:48 AM

tjeter, i basically have the same mods! unless your car is running out of sorts then you should've walked all over the guy. then again i don't know what it'll do from a roll but from a stop i dogged the G35 pretty easy.

Based on Motor Trend:
350Z=14.0
G35 Coupe=14.1
G35 Sedan=14.3

spimp 10-11-05 06:03 PM

i did a search in the fc faq unable to find what the fc runs stock, can anyone tell?

breckboarder55 10-11-05 06:05 PM

yeah im not impressed with G35s the first car i ever ran was a G35 was a kid had ex/int and skyline badges. I pulled him pretty easily the guy could beleive i just pulled that hard.lol
nice kill

SevenDreamz 10-11-05 06:06 PM

S5 T2 runs mid high to 14's in the 1/4....i believe the S4 T2 is like high 14's low 15's...these are for stock cars...

thanks SayNoToPistons, i guess our cars take very well to little mods because the way he got pulled wasn't pretty!

RidicilousRx7 10-13-05 09:24 PM

you would beat him stock just as bad, when i first got my TII i had a full exhuast, jspec motor, fuel pump and 6psi, stayed with a twin turbo g35 till 4th where he pulled a car on me and i beat a supercharged 350z that was on tuner transformation, also beat my friend in a fd with full exhuats and clutch/flywheel... got a video of all 3 races but it was taped by my girlfriend in the passenger seat so no idea how to load it on the net :(

SevenDreamz 10-14-05 06:14 AM

You beat all these cars or stayed with them at only 6psi....that is very hard to believe...

RidicilousRx7 10-14-05 01:18 PM

got 2 witness who are both on the forum... and like i said if i knew how i would post it on the putfile.com site...

Yep i was there

carx7 10-14-05 04:14 PM

G35's certainly aren't the fastest cars out there.... lord knows my '03 coupe is nothing compared to my old Rx7, but hopefully people aren't buying them to be all out sports cars as the Rx7's are. They are great for what they are, and I was actually suprised at how well the car handles for it's weight.... just goes to show what 15years of technology can do.

I definately wish it was faster though, which is why I'm considering trading.

Cool kill.

Kinda disappointing huh? I was expecting much more when I raced on about a year and a half ago and a more powerful new one a few weeks ago at the track.

The new ones have okay top end for what it's worth. 289hp and they still can't beat up on my wife's 260hp rustang.
Pretty cool car though if I wanted to blow $35,000.
I'm old school..........Turbo II > G35 coupe.

Thank you Marlin :)

spimp 10-15-05 01:51 PM

RidicilousRx7 it is kinda hard to believe though you've got a co-signer on the story. i know when i ran a Fd i was handed my ass with the same mods! and i thought a stock T2 is on 8lbs of boost?

Jumbogumbp 10-15-05 01:58 PM

the s5's are at like 7 psi fuel cut is like 8.5 or so... the s4's only push like 5.5 psi stock thats why in stock form I got beat by a damn 92~95 civic hatch turboed.. with a velocity stack sticking out of his bumper.... granted he only pulled 1 car on me by 120mph.. but still s4's arn't fast stock.... but with some minor upgrades will hold their own against alot of newer cars... oh I've got a s4 t2 and a s4 n/a... and I'm decideing on a fd or building my t2

RidicilousRx7 10-16-05 02:05 AM

well GOTBANNED? is on this forum and his the one with the 3rd gen, he will chime in...

GOTBANNED? 10-16-05 02:37 PM

Yes he did beat me. I just git the car and well yes he did. Forsum reason his car pulls extremely hard..could be sum porting done to the j-spec motor? anyways what jorjes said was right though

My car will be undergoing some serious changes this winter ;-)

RidicilousRx7 10-18-05 02:42 PM

haha thanks junior

tjeter 10-18-05 03:51 PM

those numbers for the g35 coupe seem right, i have an S4 so that may be part of the reason, spimp do you have a S5 or S4? Also my TII runs perfectly i just think its not as fast as a G35 coupe i mean i figure i'm in mid 14's and there pulling 14.1's and what not, but i have yet to race him again once i did a tune up and what not i think im going to again, but he's waiting for it to get back from the body shop :rlaugh:

jic 10-18-05 06:47 PM

nice kill..didnt think itd come out like that
but both cars are sexy :bigthumb:

2ndGen.rocket 10-19-05 07:45 AM

So no one is curious why the G35 is AN ENTIRE SECOND quicker than his car was when it was in it's fucking prime? Lord knows where it's at now being 15 years old, yet it still beat a new G35 by 5-6 car lenghts? Anyone?
