Who would win? I have seen a couple of runs on the turnpike with these 2 cars but in a sanctioned event who would win.. I always see the G35 with a nose lead that's about it.

 

The G35 would get owned by the EVO. Not even close from a dig. From a highway roll, the evo would get about 2 car lengths ahead then the G might reel him in above 120 mph. The evo is a faster car.

 

EVO. The G35 is a high 5-sec, low 6-sec 0-60 car while the EVO is more like a high 4-sec, low 5-sec 0-60 car and it has AWD for better traction off the line. This will be no contest.

 

The G would probably keep up above 80 mph and beat it as the race goes on.

From 0-80 Evo

80 and up, G35C

 

IIRC, C/D test result numbers show that the Evo owns the 350Z from 0-60 and 0-100 but the 0-120 the Z is quicker. I'm not certain how close a G35C 6MT is to the Z in performance but if it's close then G might have fairly good shot at beating the Evo at higher speeds.

 

You don't really start reeling him in until past 100. At least, thats what happened with me

 

From what I understand, the G35 is about a quarter to a half second slower than the 350Z...

 

Does anyone got Vid on this..I would love to see this at a track..

 

I have a 350Z and my good friend has an Evo. We race all the time.

- Off the line, if he lauches hard, I get killed - so badly I never even tried to reel him back in.

- If he launches soft, I get a good head start and we stay pretty even from that point on

- From a 30+mph roll, I pull a little (almost even) but I've never gone past 100 where I think I'd pull more.

From the perspective of a G35, I'd say the Evo is as fast or faster in most situations.

 

At highway speeds, i can easily keep up with evos. Just remember...most of what gives the evo its 4.5-low 5secs 0-60 is the launch. For sure a g will get killed from a launch, but its a different story when its from a roll or highway speeds especially if a g has mods like mine. I've only gotten "killed" from a launch. Also at highway speeds, those turbos wont last forever...they will eventually give out and the evo is out of power

 

errr quicker

 

yeah yeah....semantics.

 

If you throw both cars on a 1/4 mile trac, the evo would have its way with the G. But on a road coarse, the EVO needs a good driver with AWD track experience to really shine. The Evo is an awesome handling car, but it needs a little more attention. Guys that are use to RWD cars have trouble stepping into an AWD cr at a road coarse. The G35 Is a very balanced RWD car that any decent driver can whip around a track with ease. Car for car with equaldrivers, i would give it to the EVO.

 

You'd have better luck on a road course with the 350Z. The G35C is rather portly (even moreso than the sedan, apparently) and the weight transfer makes it less agile than the 350Z. G35 is much more of a GT car when compared to the Z.

 

The sedan and coupe were different weights because the sedan comes with smaller wheels. Equipped the same, both weight almost exactly the same and the coupes before 05 consistently dyno higher (but not much...about 5-10 whp).

 

Evo and STi would take M3 on straight, not to mention G35, which is only slightly or even with the 6 speed TL

a G35 with every bolt on and supercharger is on par with a M3 on straight thou

 

only if you get access to the JDM spec version of the Evo

4.1 sec 0-60

they listed 280hp in japan but they listed the same car in UK for 330hp

 

HUH? A g35 with every bolt on and supercharger is pushing 350-400hp to the wheels. It will absolutely slaughter an M3 from every speed imaginable.

 

at a G35 forum i read an owner of both M3 and G35 with supercharger wrote the comment, and both car do the same at straight

 

Honestly, he had something wrong with the car then. I've been researching SC and Turbo for awhile and if you get a Vortech kit (the most popular SC) then you will be putting at least 350hp to the wheels and with a little tuning, even more. The whole SC kit will cost you $4500 and about $2k to install and tune. At 350hp, the G35 is faster than a stock M3... At that much hp though, it hard to launch but from a roll, its a monster . You can now get a 400hp twin turbo from aps that is tuned from factory.

Honestly, the G35 and 350Z have become a tuner's paradise with the aftermarket possiblities. Its way easier to make fast a G35 or 350z than most other cars. Right now, there are 5 turbo kits and 4 supercharger kits that are easily available (probably more but I can't remember them all).

 

Magazine racer.

Didn't all motor barely beat or maybe even stay even with a SCed G35C?

How is a low 12 sec car with almost 400 whp as fast as a low 13 second car?

A supercharged G35C will beat all three of those cars you mentioned, no contest.

 

a supercharged M3 will smoke you all...

we are talking bone stock cars

 

YOU are the one that brought up a supercharged G

 

Lol, I don't get his point either.

He brings up the supercharger and now he's talking about bone stock cars.

 

any car can make it fast at the straight, but overall performance you can't compare to a M3 with exceptional cornering, which the G cannot beat

i consider overall value, not just making the car fast at straight line, that's why i pointed out that it's not even close to compare with a M3 or STi or Evo with their overall performance

 

Ram didn't rape that G35 because he didn't have traction, and when he finally got traction and he was about to whoop some ass the G let off.

 

I agree with you but you always get what you pay for. The M3 is more expensive by far than the G35. The STi and Evo are the same price as the G. All three out perform it but the STi and Evo can't match the luxury and amenities of the G. The M3 can but its more than 70% of the overall cost of the G35 so of course it does everything better. I don't even know why we are comparing the two cars since the price discrepancy is so much. For $60k, I guarantee I could make the G outhandle, outrun, and out pimp the M3 in every way. But again, not a fair comparison because I'd personally rather have an M3 over a pimped out G35 regardless of price.

Comparing stock cars, lets keep it reasonable and compare cars in its price range.

 

You guys are overanalyzing.

When comparing an AWD car with a 2 wheel car and you want to exclude racing from a standstill, then look at the trap speeds. The 300HP G35C I bet has a very close trap speed at the 1/4 mile as the Evo. Hence, from a rolling start, it will be a close match. It will depend on driver shift speed and preset gear ratios.

 

Actually I just read the post and it was a 377 whp TT G35. He said they stayed even before they shut down. He did mention his traction issues, but that's just a part of racing if you ask me.

I also remember a thread he had with that VORTECH supercharged G35 that he was about to pull on and he shut it down before allmotor caught up.


Oh and another thing, how in the world did the M3 and STi come up now?

 

 

A g35 with every bolt on and a supercharger kills e46 m3's on a straight
