I will be checking it out as I have owned 4 and a handfull of GTS convertibles.
I'm hoping it makes the 370Z (which should have a V8 in it by now) look bad. |

Go a lot of stuff squared away today - completely got rid of the smoking, all it took was adding a big crank case filter in the oil cap and voila~ enough evac to let the oil go where it needs to go!
We backed the tune down some since I am breaking it in a little and we are testing the waters. Pull below is on 12 pounds, no timing, blowing tires off (it was hooking really well with hot tires and when it was 65 earlier today) |

It would most likely be an upgrade from the 370Z (3.7) which once was a 350Z(3.5) It's time for them to upgrade with an optional 4.8 V8 480Z (2x 2.4l) with tons of Nismo GTR stuff standard.
Mercedes 2019 offerings are:2.0-litre turbo inline-four (241 hp, 273 lb.-ft.), 3.5-litre V6 (302 hp, 273 lb.-ft.), 5.5-litre V8 (415 hp, 398 lb.-ft) and once had a blown 3.2 349hp V6 AMG option. With the YODA you get a BMW 3.0 straight 6.with a turbo, Nissan needs to step up with a V8. So the bad boy would be a 480Z. I know Nissan will make the 400 horsepower twin-turbo V6 available soon, but not until forced to do so. I wanna V8 Last edited by cooper barrett; 02-03-2019 at 09:20 PM.. |

And you sell Stingers? I need better graphics...
what's wrong with these dogs The Supra looked over detailed on aerodynamics but failing to make a real engine available is what happens when you spoon with the Germans. |

When it was warmer out it was fine it just spun a little from dead launch.. im running 26 inch tall hoosier radials. Might have to run radials on the street and slicks for the track i guess. I had 28.5 radials as the last set but im telling you it was like 4 millimeters between the tire and fender so i went to 26s this time.
there is not a whole lot more I can do suspension wise besides going to a full drag shock/strut setup which i reaaaallly dont want to do since i street drive this car 99 % of the time car already has welded subframe connectors, 9 inch, tunnel mounted torque arm, lcas, panhard bar etc |
