  • Can't wait till its summer....

    Every time its dry outside I begin longing for summer....

    The main reason is one of these days I will kill the white whale...in my case, its that darn VQ engine of Nissan's (the 3.5L found in the G35, 350Z, Altima and Maxima to name a few)....

    I've been utterly destroyed by them when:
    1) I was stock
    2) I was chipped but no other mods
    3) I was chipped and had my ghetto intake in

    My friend in his ITR comes close but still loses, as does our friend with an RSX Type S, but all of us are out of their league it seems...I've lost from a roll and from a dig...my friends have lost cleanly from a dig and slowly got walked from a roll.

    I now have my full custom exhaust but predict another painful death in the summer...has anyone on this board faced off with one of those and come away with a clean victory??? There are horror stories on the audiworld forums of people with the APR Stage III kit still getting walked from a roll by those cars and by 3.2TL's......

    I've been walked on by a G35. But they have 280hp, I only have 200. You do the math :P
    Sidewalks are for normal walkin.... aint no room for fancy walkin....

      Yeah...you always hear about "it's all about the area under the curve not just the peak power"....but that VQ engine makes gobs of it all over the rpm range....sigh...guess without tons of $$$ I can't win, and if I'm gonna spend that much to supe up my car, might as well get a newer faster one!

      EDIT: But it's always fun pushing your car and seeing what it can do...and sadly what it can't....

              1. You go against everyone who wants to go
              2. You won't beat a 350Z in a Golf with bolt-ons
              3. I will beat a 350Z this summer or I will lick my tires.

              Edit: a tire... not all four

                    I know I'd like to try.....(no Personal experience though...)

                    If an ITR comes close, shouldnt a Stage 3 be closer?
