Well we went up to Ultimate Electronics today to look at some speakers for my new talon TSI and a freind of mine works up there so im talking about my brothers 300ZX and telling him he put down 330RWHP and 367Pounds or torq (was not tuned very well was running really really rich.. should be about 360rwhp when tuned) Anyway a guy that works there has a TransAm with cat back, intake and a 150shot. He was like lets take them out and race. My brother is like sure why not. The guy was cool we did a few runs with nos and a few without.

So first race was from like 35-40 mhp and the guy jumped and kept walking pretty bad really.. second brother went got about halfcar then nitrous kicked in and again right by us. Then stop light race.. really was not a race b/c my brother was not paying attition to the light and boged bad... So then a U-turn (best part) both sideways making the turn (i bet it looked bad ass) All these were WITH a 150shot.

Now without the 150Shot same a 40Mph roll brother takes him by a few cars.. now again from same MPH same thing but this time no traffic and well brother was pulling pretty bad at abuot 110MPh then he hit the 150shot and started to gain but never got infrot this race went till yes 160MPH the transAM toped his car out.
Then hard on the brakes to slow for the stoplight to turn back into the store... my brothers brakes you could smell and well SEE there were smoking and could see coming up past the window. His brakes were doing the same just not as bad. All and all NOS wins and N/A losses. Now to tune my brothers car better so those dyno numbers go from 330 too 360 or more.

It was fun and scary doing 160 racing and my friend in his car started to feal the car shaking going that fast (this was inthe TransAM) and my brothers car well still felt like we were doing 60 but, then you saw the spedometer.


FUN NIGHT... cant wait till i get my talon this friday night or staturday morning!!!
 
that would be sweet to see!!! hell....it would be even better to be in the car with him!!! so what are your brothers modds, and has he had his car at the track any?

do you mean the TransAm won when NOSed and lost when N/Aed? or do you mean the TransAm won because it was NOSed and you lost because you were NAed?

no way in hell you're pulling 330 from a NA 300Z :)

Nice races. I love to race people that are actually cool about their cars and you're just racing for FUN.
 
u guys raced to 160 on the streets? wow 140 on the highway for me was scary

Ok mods for my brother are as flollowed:

Apexi pop charger
Apexi blow off vales (no HP but sound cool)
Fendaza lightend flywheel
Blizt boost controller
HKS fuel contreller (not tuned car is on ECU still, witch runs rich)
JWT ECU
Apexi data logger thingy
Greg dupree Test pipes and downpipes (2.5")
and 2.5" thermal cat back

He is running right about 15 psi

ON the dyno he put down ruffly 333RWHO and 360+torq (dont know exact number dont have dyno sheet right now)

His freind has the exact same set up just without the fuel and boost controller, and has boost jets that do 13.5psi and a spike of 15psi. and has FULL 3" exhuast and my brother only has 2.5"
He put down 350RWHP and 388torq.

With peoples guesses my brother should gain about 30-45RWHP by tunning it right and getting the right air/fuel.

THE transAM has the following:
Catback exhuast
Lightend flywheel
intake
150shot of nitrous

That is all he said he had when we talked to him.


ANd yes my brother won when he didnt use the NOS and lost when he (the trasAM) used it.

And it was on the streets but was on a highway just with stop lights... if that makes anysence and when we hit 160MPH it was between stoplights and the next one was spance a few miles ahead. And my brother let off and 130 and saw the guy still coming so he laid back into the gas. i think the guy turned on the NOS at like 100 and started gaining but never got infront and from i would say 145 too 160 was about a car behind.

That is the fastest iv ever gone in a car and will probly ever go.. unless he gets new turbos and shit and goes out to the desert.
:D
