350z's are running very high 13s stock (normally 13.9-14.0), I doubt a 13.5 would be possible unless the person had a few mods.

the best I've ever seen for a track model 6speed 350z was 13.7..

while G35's are running 14.0-14.2, the best i've seen was a 13.8..

this would be a driver's race for sure. it's only about a 200lbs difference with the same exact engine & transmition. it's just like having an extra passenger in your car.

To the poster with the school yard picture, that's a G35 that someone has put the JDM G35 Skyline badges on. There isn't a GT-R yet, though the president of Top Secrect Japan has cooked up what he'd like. A VQ45DETT =) If you know what I'm talking about, you know that's just damn sexy =)

The Skyline 350 GT in Japan is the same as the G35 here in the states, the badges are just JDM ones.

wha-what?

Don't get me wrong, I love the G-35, but the R-34 looks so agressive and powerful and of course rare (out here at least).

This has become a skyline thread and not a tC thread. Needs to be moved...BTW love the skyline. I'd take one of those and a Supra please.
