Dragon3125 Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Hi all, I was just wondering from those with really big motors in there Z's. What's there power to weight ratio ? compared to standard ?? Quote
peter mc Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 heheh 600hp in a zed is faster than any car you can buy under 500k you can run 9sec with 500hp in a zed as long as you can get it to the ground lol Quote
Dragon3125 Posted March 20, 2012 Author Posted March 20, 2012 well that is true since you only have those 4 black things to do it. Quote
chev z Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 depends on whether you've indulged in the upsized mcfatty meal or the standard. My 240 with ls1 weighs approx. 1240kg with me and has 335 hp [250kw] at rear wheels Quote
chev z Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 nowhere near as fast as sinishas , his rb 25 or 26 turbo was 7 secs a lap faster at sandown recently. Quote
peter mc Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 yer he is very fast there he has 360kw atw from a rb26 and its a well set up car Quote

260DET Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 depends on whether you've indulged in the upsized mcfatty meal or the standard. My 240 with ls1 weighs approx. 1240kg with me and has 335 hp [250kw] at rear wheels Same weight as my two seat 280ZX with the VG30DET but mine has a bit more powaz Quote
