I'm stage 2 gti dsg, how bad will I lose to a 370z guy wants to race for 200 tempted to go at it with him I told him until 100 we shut it down what are my chances

mk6'12gti · 03-04-2015, 12:00 AM

just to give you a idea i went against a modded/tuned g35 coupe which is basically a 350z i no its not a 370z but its just to give you a general idea. im stage 2 an alot of extra bolt ons.. we did a roll from 40 i had him by 2-3 cars all the way to 140 then he started to creep up

Eroc93 · 03-04-2015, 12:07 AM

I've raced g35's as well with 3 people in my car and took him lol I know the 370 has I think 50
More horses

RGTI13 · 03-04-2015, 12:08 AM

370s are much faster than 350s in general.

If he's a modded 370, I think he will win.

DarkDub · 03-04-2015, 12:14 AM

my 370z did 13.5 at 106 if that helps but I couldn't drive that car.

Eroc93 · 03-04-2015, 12:15 AM

He's stock with some heavy wheels lol looked up there dyno charts they put 270whp and 230 trq lol
I raced a nismo 370z from a 10 roll and I spun like hell and I was right at his door

Trnado_2.5 · 03-04-2015, 12:15 AM

Comparing the numbers I think it could go either way. Both cars weight about the same and at stage 2 the gti makes a little less power but more torque and makes the torque quicker too. You would have the advantage being dsg so from a roll you might be able to take it but if he/she wants to race from a dig you definitely will lose. If the 370 is modded with a tune or is a nismo version then The favor is still with the 370. I am not to sure though I never street race and I don't follow this section very much.

Also this is assuming he knows how to shift properly.

DarkDub · 03-04-2015, 12:18 AM

I had full bolt ons my 370s though.

Eroc93 · 03-04-2015, 12:21 AM

Should be interesting. He has a go pro so I should have it on camera

I'll let you guys know if I'm 200 dollars richer. Taking this on a private road thanks god to texas lands lol can't risk another tixket

mk6'12gti · 03-04-2015, 12:21 AM

isnt stock times for the 370 13.3 at 108? *Edit* correction the nismo is supposed to do 13.5 at 105 so figure a regular 370z should be slightly higher

There were a couple of them at the track the last time I was there. NA you would have a chance but folks do put superchargers and twin turbos on em and you can imagine that they are in a much different class if that is what has been done. Listen to it carefully before you put your money down.

I ran a 370Z with a Stillen exhaust system on the highway a year ago. He may have had an intake as well couldn't tell but the exhaust was visible and stupid loud so I know it had that lol.... We did two pulls from about 100kph (60mph) to 220kph (136mph) and both times we were pretty even. I pulled him slightly initially because of the torque advantage down low but he would sorta catch back up again at the top gears. I'd say if its stock, or very light mod you should be good, should be a good race.

corrado917 · 03-04-2015, 04:52 AM

For you to have an idea

*lilfleck* · 03-04-2015, 08:17 AM

Yeah, top end is gonna get you with those cars. With K04, it's an easy win though.
