Well a kid at school wants to challange me to a race thats about a 1/4 mile. Has a tiny bend, buy basically straight. I have the TXS turboback and Cobb accessport. O yeah he has a 5-AT. Should I have any trouble taking him?
Edit: I really don't wanna launch that hard if I don't have to, like 4-5 k then slip, and I don't wanna go WOT either in second or third because I will be pushing 16.5 psi through the uppipe cat?
If you are going to race him, go all out. I would be a close race stock vs. stock from a dead stop. It will still be close, but I am confident you should win give you get a good launch and don't mis-shift or anything.

Cobb says its ok to run w/ the stock uppipe. But it won't be for that long either, I have the Perrin sitting in my basement, waiting for a warm weekend to install.
if its for fun, then dont beat the crap out of your car
i always slip launch my WRX, i tried dumping it a few times when at the track after driving through the burnout box(let my wheels spin a little, making the launch not so painful) but it still broke my heart doing it.
auto 350z hu? well, he doesnt have to be a good driver.
as for the up pipe, im sure the one race at 16.5psi wont cause any problems
don't be stupid. You better set the shit straight right of the start and go all out. If your worried about the uppipe then just wait untill it is on!! You need to show him who his dady is. You will definately take him with your mods..
Never raced. Kid pussied out the night I wanted too, and haven't talked to him since. Should bring him to an autocross this weekend though and really show him whos boss. I do have my uppipe though now and maybe sometime soon we will race on the highway. I will update if we race.
Well I'm running Cobb STG 2 93 Oct. Stock for stock you can take him. Driver's race. STG 2 vs. even a (disclaimer- depends on mods) modded 350 you'll take. There are plenty of stg 2 WRX's 13.0-13.6 e.t.'s. Also note: the stock uppipe is just fine.
ok.....
mods to a wrx add alot of power
mods to a 350z add almost nothing
but to say that a stock wrx will hang with a 350z in the .... you just look like an ***hole
the 1/8 is more like it.
i'm from long island ny and no 350z runs a 14.8 at the track. and to use some horible driver in this thread as a comparision is pathetic. i own a 02 wrx a 03 350z and a 93 rx7
lets just say the wrx isn't winning any races here if it's not snowing
i have stock timeslips on my350z.com of my timeslips of my wrx 350 and rx7
look it up ....350z stock 13.7 wrx 14.1 rx7 13.4 averages
now sti's are ####ing aswome
and in Long Island how often in it 95 deg F and 80% rel humidity, at 9pm in May. I am originally from New England so I know the weather up there. And as for mods to the 350z, there is a twin turbo Fairlady Z that goes to the track with 407whp

well as mods go i meant basic boltons do nothing for the 350z, i have about all of them and i've only seen a 22 hp(sae) difference with an ecu reflash. on the other hand i live near preformance motorsport www.preformancemotorsport.com and there z's are going to rape the entire import drag series this year. street tire car last year went a 8.33 (vid on website) and it has beed modded alot more since then. ten you have the pro car that (i think) is going to tear the street glow team to pieces.
