Ya, I'm not sure I believe that acceleration. If it had that kind of power, seems the passenger would barely be able to keep from being sucked into the seat. I doubt he'd be able to hold the camera that steady.

yeah and is the speedo mounted on the rear or something? wheelspin? it jumped up to like 120 and then back down to 100 when he shifted... and i agree there is no way he could hold the camera that steady, and i figure there'd be a lot more wind noise...

gotta see that from outside in another car to believe it...or a double view at the road and speedo at once...

jeez, i didn't have sound when i watched it. i would've guessed that he just like totally lost traction and made the wheels spin crazy fast but i doubt that going ~70mph..

The car is believed to be a 9 second car, the motor rebuilt by the best Z mechanic in the nation, guestimated at 900 something rwhp. Yeah he has a problem from what i hear spinning tires in all gears :) He has yet to dyno the car. Also there is another vid out there where he races a highly modified talon and it was even but the talon was on slicks and he was on street tires, he had to keep getting on it then off it. That car is nuts.

aren't there a lot of comparably nuts mkIV supras?

or does the fact its a 300zx make it kinda unique somehow?

yes, the 300Z's aren't bombproof like the MKIV....

obviously he's not too smart (sounds wrong, but for lack of a better word), there is plenty of boost controllers out now that can change boost depending on gear...

has anyone analyzed why the 2jz engines are so bulletproof? specific make-up or processing of materials used? design? over engineering? a combo of any/all of those?

sorry to get off topic.

that is pretty cool...and even cooler knowing how cramped those engine bays are!
