Incorrect!

03-06 350Z's will be low 14's to high 13's depending on driving skills
If somone is low 15's they can't drive.

07-+ HR 350Z's are easy mid 13's to low 13's

Of course driver dependant. Tune and mods like test pipes plenum spacer will add 30whp.

There are some auto's (04) with 4.2 rear gears and slight mods as above that are hitting low 13's

It will depend on what mods he has and how he hooks up.

Z's can be a ***** to hook auto is easier.

I have yet to see a 350z auto with a 1/4 of a 13.... Haha. If that is the case, I know the track I went to was poorly prepped, I could run a high 13 if it was a good prepped track with the right conditions.

The best recorded time of a 350z in the 1/4 was a 14.1. An auto will run mid to high 14s. Please reread

I think balt is probably closer to right. The 2011 370z was tested at motortrend with a 13.4 1/4 mile. The 350z is probably a little closer to 14 and an auto is probably slightly slower. 2011 Nissan 370Z Touring First Test - Motor Trend

I know that Im right because I had a heeted discussion with my coworker because he owns a N/A 300z(wedge). We established that a stock TT Wedge does best 13.8 and they slaughter 350z stock. And that an RX-8 vs 350z vs Cobalt SS/SC are all almost drivers race with the edge to the Cobalt because the best time in a stock SS/SC was 14 flat. I have yet to see a stock 350z beat a stock SS/SC. It just never happens unless the driver of the Balt is an noob little kid which most and I say most of the drivers of SS/SC's are. I happen to be a lot older person owning a hot hatch.

Sorry dude its you that needs to read.

Top 25 1/4 Mile Times For ( TT, ST, SuperCharger, Nitrous, Bolt-ons, Stock ) - MY350Z.COM Forums

If you check out the forum you will see some guys with auto and bolt on's have run low 13's. I actually witnessed it 2 years ago at one of the z car club meets.

I would agree the average auto early (03-06) stock z would be mid to low mid 14's but this is the slowest.


BUT!!! With some bolt ons and driver skill.

Wow that forum had a bunch of nice pretty colors but I see no time slips or videos. So I still do not count any of that info. I HIGHLY doubt that a 350z runs a 13.1 stock. You are a joke.... I have driven 350z in auto and stick and they do not feel like a 13 second car. If that was the case they would run with LS1s and they don't. Not even a guy out here with a single turbo 350z can hang with a bolt on LS1 WS6. And the WS6 is an auto. Please troll, go post false information elsewhere.

You just cant handle the truth. Here are the numbers forthe Stock Z's.

I guess you just can't drive fast but then again you have a cavalier....

Ok it says that all times have been verified.... BY WHO??

And this is the first time that anyone claimed a 350z runs that quick. And FYI, it you would know anything about cars period I drive a Cobalt SS not a Cavalier. And if I do recall, the Cobalt SS slaughters a 350z stock for stock.

Ill tell you what, ill let you be a noob for this moment, but the OP asked who would win and the Camaro is my bet. Lets see what happens and hopefully someone catches it on video. And I do not doubt that a 350z can be made faster but all I see out here in one of the best climate conditions, cold dense air, and single turbo Zs run almost neck and neck with LS1 Maros and T/As. Stock, my 'cavalier' beats them. So that means my eco-box runs 13s right??

oh brother, you really are getting all worked up on this. I was sharing valid times poeple have posted and verified with time slips etc and you simply don't want to ack. If you dont want to believe the numbers thats up to you. When the Op runs the Z (hopefully at the trac k ) they have fun and may the best driver/car win. There is almost always a beter car and better driver. I'm sure if you run against othe Ugh Cobalts some will put down better and worse times than others fo the most part.

As far a single 350z turbos, yeah some are tuned mild and have the cheaper rear mount turbo so they are putitng down maybe 350+ wheel. OTHER single turbo Z's ( Not rear mount) have proven to break 10's. It's simply not that black and white. Do you want me to post the you tube vid of that sub 10 run for proof because you dont believe me? Search is your friend.

The way you talk it sounds like you are a teenager in little cavalier that thinks it's oh so fast but you say you are older in a hot hatch haha. Red does not make it fast you know. You know nothing about me and call me a noob haha.

Anyway enough bench racing lets get the vid and see how they do i like to see a good race.

PS I didnt realize Oakland Cali had cool weather haha Guess you haven't been North of the boarder.

my question is why are you going to reduce the power of your car with a flowmaster chambered muffler vs. the wide open slp?
