"350Z POST-Turbo TRACK Performance" by Nutnfancy
Nothing beats drifting fun at the track. That was part of this POST-Turbo TRACK run in the now modified TNP 350Z [see for mods reundown: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OnsJgmVyic]. For this run I hadn't achieved my horsepower goals of 425 rwhp on this stock motor as methanol injection caused backfires on high post during dyno tune. So "Killer" was pushing about 385-390 on high boost here. But that along with the Nittos and Stance coilovers was enough to make him a different car. It drives like a supercar now. About 100 mph achieved on the short straight section, hard Gs pulled at times around corners. First launch and first run [only three possible with huge lineup] brings drama as I almost melt the clutch. But the Nissan is tough and the clutch comes back after throttle backoff and runs fine for the rest of the day. I just can't put the hammer full down on launch. Run two is serious and posts a good time, Run Three brings the drifting fun and a cone pays dearly for it. There was perfect cone triangle outline on the front bumper afterwards. We meet some great dudes at the track and the 350Z brings a small crowd after the race. We do a wrapup with them and discuss the day as the sun sets quickly.
