Another G35 Mop up story

Once again i was driving down the 14 south minding my own business coming onto the 5 south and low an behold a G35 coupe and a 350Z roll up on me on each side. They both start trying to mess with me. So i say ok to myself and drop it into SS and downshift into 3rd. All 3 of us punch it at the same time. Before you know it i'am almost a full car lenth ahead doing about 105mph then shift into 4th and they can't even catch me. I just started laughing and shaking my head. Roll down my windows cause they are blacked out, look at both of them and laugh. So they keep wanting to race and they are getting all pissed so i go at it again. Well of course the same thing happens so they just both back off and didn't even try anymore. What is it with these guys they just seem to under estimate the TL.

hey u have a TL-S right?

if TL-S it can match up with both pretty well, if the 350 and the G35 are automatic

the 350Z numbers are pretty identical with the TL-S if it's automatic, so it was a fair race

and gd to see u beat them~ =)

298 sounds tempting

TL should make a type-S with 3.5 V6 with 300hp~

Well, you do have one fast TL, what do you expect?

(Sorry, I had to)

Nice kill there, those are two quality Japanese sports cars. I still can't manage to take out one of those G35's, both sedan and coupe!

Matt

our TL and the G is pretty much in the same class in terms of performance

both are 3.2-3.5L with V6 and hp output are not too far away, so the race is pretty close and so does the stats

test numbers shown they all do in low 6s and just depends on the road and weather condition.

unless it's a V8 class or some mods on the G then it's a different story, but in the same class you always have the 50:50 chance

BS. Put me in a G35 coupe stick, and i dont care how modded your TL is (without a charger), I will whip your ass.

the G35 & the Z probably had no clue what they were doing, if you've actually raced them.

Driver's race...although more often than not, the 350Z will take both cars. The G35 sedan/coupe manual has reached 13.9X on the 1/4 stock...pretty fast for a luxo sedan/coupe

Thanks. I have i/h/p/e test pipe. And for some reason my car is fast. I have two friends that have the same car and have the same mods as me and i always beat them wether on the street or freeway.

teknoking, sure you will. From a stop just like Ezz said it's a driver's race. I raced a G35C on the freeway and on the street about 4 months ago. On the freeway i mopped him up, on the street we raced four times. The first time he said he spun out too much. 2nd time he barely got me by a front end. 3rd we were even. 4th i asked for the go and waxed his ass by a whole car. So your one of those guys who thinks he is the best driver huh. I think you should think again. If your such a good driver why aren't you on espn driving a race car

I'm sick of bullshit from people like you.

Anything's possible. I once saw a Sentra beat a WS6 because the WS6 spun off the line and misshifted. Yes, the WS6 should have beat the Sentra given equal drivers, but that's the whole point. It all comes down to the drivers.

"Put me in a G35 coupe stick and I don't care how modded your TL is"... Please. Put me in a fucking MB CLK GTR, and I guarantee you will beat me in a Volvo because I won't know how to drive it. But that proves nothing as far as the car's true potential is concerned. Same story here. It's a driver's race. It only makes you look stupid to come in here and say shit like that, because we all know that already. You're just trying to show off to us that you're a good driver with a stick... but you are also a calculated debater, because you made a back door for you to weasel out of in case this backfired -- "without a charger". Well, shit, if you're going to come in here and brag about your mad driving skills, why not talk shit all the way?


Go hump the rear end of a G35 for all I care.

If you make more power than stock, I could see you even or maybe even pull on them a little, but they run a little more mph at the track so that would show up as them maybe pulling on a stock one from a roll.

It's kind of funny, but some of these racing threads remind me of penthouse letters. "All 3 of us punch it at the same time." Exciting, but not so realistic most times.

The Echo SE, 170 hp, 145 torque, 0-60 6 flat.

Remember the Mitsubishi Mirage Turbo ?

doh stupid me! i saw your car at the meet haha the debadged NBP right?

with those all those bolt-on mods, the TL is making as much power as the G35c/350z if not a bit more. i don't see what's so ridiculous about his beating those 2 cars in a streetrace on the freeway. i think some of you people are overgloryifying the G35 and 350z.
yes, they have more potential to be faster than the TL-S, but thats besides the point in this scenario. of course, factors such as road conditions, reaction time, driver, and at/mt are just some of many that could have affected the outcome.

fully modded? Please share.

I heavily modified my previous cars, except the TL which has only headers, intake, braking system, basic crap.

My last car was a supercharged Maxima 97 SE manual, so I know what cars in manual are capable off. and I hate G35s, and like the Zs, but those cars are quicker than TLs.
And dont come out on me like I just dissed your mother, calm down.

PureRage is more like it, see a doctor man, calm yourself. I weiselled out? put a charger in a fukin civic and it will eat our TLs. If you are going to argue and degrade me, at least be reasonable. Now enuf with the fighting. There is no point to it.

And volvos can be quite fast, lol.

You need to take a look at some of the previous quote's. It states that it's a driver's race. Not to talk shit but some of you guys like you for example under estimate the TL-S. Fully modded meaning everything but NOS or charger. Now if you don't have a Type-S then i think you should keep your mouth shut cause even if you had all of my mods and my car was stock, i would still mop you up no matter what. Trust me my friend had a 2000 TL with all the mods i have and the day i brought my car home from ther dealer and we raced, i smoked his ass. So think about it, all those mods on a TL-S, now that pretty damn fast. All i'am saying is that if you like nissan so much why didn't you buy one instead of the TL and my ar is fast for what it is. If i really wanted to race i would go home and get my 11sec all motor crx or my 10sec turboed civic.

Nobody is mouthing off just a little friendly discussion. Besides it's all fun i don't get mad i just sit back and laugh cause like i said guy's like you think that those cars are so fast. About the Supra, if it's stock it is not going to a 10 nor 11sec car. As for the vette, even the Zo6 only does 12's. Oh and all bullshit aside sorry to hear about your car. I know where you are coming from been there so i feel for you.

thanx.
bro, picture this: my ex who i was suppose to propose to after a few years of dating left me first, two weeks later my maxima was stolen. I cried over the car and not my ex, that should tell you something.

They found the car two days later, only the fukin frame and a sealed pack of Newport cigs (which i dont smoke). I cant tell you how it felt when all your work and part of your soul just got taken. So i promissed myself no more overmodding (yeah right).
For ppl who think that Im crazy to talk about a car like that, well, I cant make you understand, but some ppl will feel me.

I know man, I know. I don't even like my wife driving my TL. But some times i have to pick up parts and i use her MDX and she takes my car to work and just the thought of someone taking my car, HELL NO. It's just the fact that you work so hard for something and for some fucken idiot just to take within a coupld of seconds just pisses me off So good call not crying about your ex and show your emotion towards something worth it LOL
