There's NA 350z a with a 640hp homemade built GT-LM that Sacha Anis custom did. way more impressive than this Nismo made one. and that's saying something considering he did this in a small fab shop and isn't a Nissan employee. go watch it your jaws will drop even more. 9K rpm's with ITB's NA Vq35 pushing over 600 crank. IT's the best sounding VQ EVER.

About Hawk pads: I use the 5.0’s for autocross and daily driving. They’re fantastic, BUT I do NOT recommend the HPS pads. I had them on an 03 Mazda protege and they were terrible to daily drive on, just my personal experience. Now about the 5.0’s: I’ve overheated them a couple times at tail of the dragon to the point they were bellowing smoke yet they never faded! They’re very consistent and great for autoX when they’re hot. Great pad, can’t recommend them enough!

I think it has more to do with the gearing, 1st gear on those old supercars was so long, they used to regularly break axles or burn out clutches from a standing start, especially if they had a full tank (like Bathurst).

@DR3ADER1 Жыл бұрын

Long gears and the weight gap led to the Falcon losing 2-1. However, if a GT500 spec 350Z competed instead of the GT300 (which is impossible because those cars are technically "loaned" from the big 3 Japanese Manufacturers, and are often donated to museums after their tenure on the track ends with a few exceptions such as the 90s GT500 Supra that's rotting outside of a shop in the Japanese Midlands), the Falcon would lose 2-0.
