95, they weigh from 2600 to 3000 lbs depending on trim. 350z weighs between 3100 to 3600 lbs.

Sorry, I wasn’t trying to insult you, you just said you had no idea why and I was trying to work with you on that.

Ok now, wtf. I thought the type-r was going to be a 3 door hatch. What is this 4 door sedan doing here? It was the only new car I was considering, but it had better come as a hatch in order for me to consider it, otherwise I’ll stick with my 90 si or get a ep3.

Yep, mine was too. It wasn’t really stock. Mods are listed in a different reply. Also, adjustable shocks and poly bushings all around stiffened it up.

I have nothing to prove, but the car is practically a fwd 350z with half a liter less displacement and 500-600 lbs lighter, not really a stretch of the imagination.

It was a 95 with a 2000's engine (vq30dek instead of vq30de, different cam, smoother power, variable length intake) and a 6 speed manual out of a 2003. Theoretical top speed of 320 kmph. I was at 5000 rpm in sixth when I hit 260kmph (160 mph) and it still wasn’t even slightly out of steam.

Is it because you have no pride or place to be every day?

160 in a Maxima I took the restrictor off of. I’m glad I did because when I took my foot off the gas the car almost disintegrated and it scared me into slow cars for public roads for the rest of my natural life.

Must have been a pretty big hill you were going down.

My whole family is in oil stimulation, a small company but with a good reputation. I’ll let you know when someone calls us for a job. It’s been almost 2 years.

Fracking is incredibly expensive and arguably terrible for the environment and the things that live in it, also expensive. Being able to produce and being able to frack are two different things, fracking won’t start for at least another 10-20$. But the old abandoned holes are still viable. So yes and no.

Update: not a Nissan guy.

Well I have to know more about this. Have a blog or thread somewhere?

The engine dosn’t necessarily nuke with a BHG, just smoke and be down on power. When you have 7 cylinders driving one shitty cylinder you generally don’t notice it, it just shakes a little.

I find that 350's make so much power people simple don’t notice when one or two cylinders are at 50%. In all honestly, I constantly check used cars for potential buyers. If it has over 100-120,000km almost nothing runs completely right. Dodge, VW, Toyota, Ford, Jeep, they all have shaky engines and noisy…

I have watched my father buy new Chrysler after Chrysler and never get one over 100,000km without needing an engine or transmission. Ford f150, same thing. I can’t count the number of nuked 4lxxe’s and 4rxx’s I have changed out of domestic pickups and SUVs. Or 5.4 timing belt problems. I have also never seen a Chevy…

Taxis are generally required to be no more than 5 or 8 years old.

Microwaves, garage doors and power tools constantly crap out, even in warrentee period; to say nothing of the infernal combustion motor cars. You must spend a lot of time angry if you expect everything built to a price to never break.

What engine or transmission number are you on?

That Rimac is one of the most handsome original car designs I have seen in a long while, looks like a Colt .45 and a SR-71 had a love child. Simply fantastic.
