what does a 97 cobra and a 91 300z have in common?

Trust me- he 9 outta 10 didnt have a cams in that car. To put cams ( a total of 4- DOHC engine ) in that car is very expensive so most people spend the money a blower. If it was loud/lopy then he had at least an aftermarket exhaust to go with his wide tires because 96-98 Cobra's are very quiet in stock trim.

Also....from what your sig. says I would think you would be able to hold your own or possibly beat a Cobra with some mods so Nice Kill

Yup- mine makes a weird lopy sound cause of the X-pipe and cat back combo. More importantly then discussing that.. you beat a modded Cobra so Nice job.

Check the subject

The other guys are right about the cams. A 4V w/ cams would be a low 12sec car on DRs. Nobody installs cams w/o P&Ping the heads also.

Good kills
