Then rebuild the mother fucker.

You think a 100k mile 350Z has never been beat on?

Better is subjective. Hence the point of this thread. The cars feel nothing a like and I've owned both.

Why am I even arguing this shit with you? Youre probably in high school and if you arent, that anime profile pic. is embarrassing. At the end of the day, I have actually owned both and would recommend 350Z>S chassis. Youre the kind of guy that talks shit about how his car could beat another car if you "did this or that" to it. Also, if you wanna talk about "best bang for your buck" horsepower, sorry to say SR20 is a joke compared to an older Vette or mustang.
Oh the bloody irony. Maybe you should sit back, chill out and figure out what's what before flying off the handle again... bro.

Also a C3 is a POS on so many levels for soooo many reasons. I adore Mustangs but that is once again, COMPLETELY different. Not to mention a 302 will split in half at 300whp. AWESOME.

The SR20DET is a strong and capable motor. In fact I would argue it's one of the stoutest 4-banger turbos made. The reasoning behind that is they spent 15-20 years having the crap beat out of them in Jaydemmland, got pulled by some monkey at a scrap yard, sat in a container, shipped to the us, bounced around a dozen times, installed by a some hack following a youtube tutorial and then taken to the "Track" to get get the snot beat out of it some more.

VQ35's puke rods and lift heads the minute they smell 400whp.


If you need a resume, here you go...







Now pout in the other room.
