My co-worker has a 2004 350 and he always turns his nose up at my car. The other day he snickered at my idea of putting some wider tires on my car. Basically he said "Why would you do that?...your car doesn't have enough power to turn em!!". Is there a configuration that could blow away a 350Z at least in the straight away? Is this even comprehendible with a 4 banger?
Z specifications: 287 horsepower. 274 lb-ft of torque. curb weight 3,400 |

Heck It dont take much to beat a 350...
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-2-1119113382.jpg) The stock 944 turbo (has a chip) should be able to beat it, and the race 944 would as well. Theres a guy with a factory tuned one running around modesto... Blue, big fatty wing, graphics, loud ass exhaust. Bling bling. Seen a couple exactly like it... Im always desperate to pull next to one... (I hate ricers..Even quick one's... but I do have respect..) Yet, I have not had a street race (nor do I think I will... lol) |
