[hofmannsapprentice]

get those pieces of shit off the track! xD

[BellRacingTeam93]

i love my 300zx but they are so under powered

[xExRxIxCxKx]

@BellRacingTeam93 if 300 hp stock is underpowered to you then idk what to tell you... go get an srt-10 or something haha

[spotty91]

@xExRxIxCxKx Well, he got a point.. You know 300zx is a pretty heavy car, so 300hp isn't that much actually..

[hofmannsapprentice]

@BellRacingTeam93 maybe yours is...

[DWINTERS14]

@BellRacingTeam93 Do you have an NA? They're heavy cars, to make better use of that power, get a single piece aluminum drivshaft, light clutch/flywheel, carbon fiber hatch, and Fiberglass doors. That will make the biggest difference without adding any HP. But if you've got a turbo, that's the last thing i'd do. Do all the performance mods first.

i heel toe oppsite i use the tip of my foot to brake and my heel to hit the throttle

[Schaffnix73]

Very cool car. I want to tune my 300ZX for trck use as well. Where did you get the roll-over bar from?

[splparts]

Cage is custom built

[Barcode711]

2:43 - Where'd that lag spike come from?

[splparts]

There are some camcorder cutouts/artifacts

[GTRfiend26]

Is he using heel and toe? I wonder how he does it on the 300ZX? I try and it's hard because of the wall right next to the accelerator.

[1993z32]

Driving shoes. Even though I learned with size 12 BMX shoes :) Driving shoes made it easier. And there are different styles of heel toe to accomadate different pedal setups. Z32s do have a slightly cramped footbay though

[evoandy]

I also found the brake pedal to be a smidge too far from the accelerator in my Z32.... I managed to revmatch pretty well probably 70% of the time, but a good portion of the time I would get paranoid that my foot was goign to slip off the brake.

[1993z32]

yeah I run aftermarket pedals that put the throttle and brake about an inch closer to each other, and if you brake with the ball of your foot your pinky side should be able to reach the throttle. the pedals are what make the biggest difference though

[theTTshark]

Just practice a lot. I can. I've also seen guys do it in boots. hahaha

[lilmoe300zx]

now thats a bad ass Z

[d4rkb1u3]

Pity about the boost hose. With 13lbs of boost, that car can't have been making much more than stock power! Just goes to show that a good setup and a good driver goes a long way.

[mwittie]

You need to remember that 13psi is just a measurement of restriction and not a measurement of the actual amount of air a turbo moves (cfm). 13psi on the turbos he is running flows more air than 13psi on a pair of stock Z32 turbos. However the driver is very good and the way Kuah has the car setup is also first rate.

[Jonathanowns]

yep..i agree. The full race exhaust sounds pretty good too..haha

[Jonathanowns]

What exhaust company is that? Great track car!!

[folex2k6]

he is good..passed up alot of people
