My buddy just got an 04 350z. He's talkin a lot of ****. I know he has a right to cuz he is faster as of now... but how much faster is a 350z than an 04 titan with just a CAI? and i'm getting magnaflows thursday... i know this will help... but how much? 2* also coming soon
If you can drive you will give him a good run. My prediction is if he is all stock you will burn him off the line, after that is dependent on him. Haven't raced one in my truck yet but my car spanks them. And my truck is faster than my car off the line. They are heavier than you think. Good luck!

have not raced altima, yet but it should be a close race. my 350z has 17 more hp than the altima. if i get around vegas, i let you know so we can try to line up.
I am a moderator of a 350z forum, so...let's just say I'm familiar with them.
The average 1/4 mile time is about a 14.1, but 04s have gone as fast as 13.6. Any which way, not really Titan territory (I say this with no bias as I love both vehicles).
And the 2007 ones are even faster.

lol my truck. the vette would kill a 350. I love it when i see one with dealer tags and he thinks hes all bad ***... then i bust his bubble for him. same thing happens to those guys that drive those S2000's. hahaha

That would be cool. I have raced numerous ones out here in the Altima and I have not lost yet not sure if they had any mods or not, so hopefully it doesn't come across as i'm trying to bash on them. I love the handling of the Z. All my point is with my car is that they are a couple 100 lbs heavier than I am and I don't have as much driveline loss compared to it's RWD setup. Out here I have not seen one 350z get under a mid 14 ET at the track. I am not sure if it's the heat or the elevation (almost 3000') or driver. The best ever I was able to pull off with my car before I started having problems with it was a 14.03@99.96. Don't know what your car runs but I guess I can give you an idea of what the race would be like by giving you my time. I feel it is very strong for the little bit that I have done to it.

LMAO....why the heII are you looking to race a Z in a Titan?! 0-60 is in the mid 5s....lol....he'll embarass the crap outta you! (pay no attention to anyone claiming to beat one off the line in a Titan...that one was parked). Why are you driving a 1/2 ton pickup if what you really want is a sports car. Our trucks are fast....for trucks though. Start stepping that far out of your element, and you'll all too soon be disappointed.

I just sold my 06 350z. I truly wasn't impressed after 3,000 miles which is one of the reasons why I sold it. Top-end it would fly but off the line it was slow IMHO. I kicked around the idea of going SC or TT but decided I would be better off with a C6 or possibly the new Camaro next year.
