for slightly over 1k i'd go a unichip with boost module (allowin u not to hit boost/fuel cut @16psi) a custom y pipe & a walbro pump. With these in place & 18psi thru it your car would have atleast 30kwatw more and should run an easy low 13 if driven hard...

Having said that the zeds are quite a quick car in std trim and would run an easy 13 sec pass with only mods being 3" exhausts, so unless your cars quite freaky or u have no mechanical sympathy, you'd need some mods other than exhaust to knock it off in my opinion...

i seriously doubt that statement as the 300ZX are really overweight......probably 14ish sec at best even with exhaust. even my slow ass rex can beat it

a unichip with boost control (@17psi), air intake (maybe even a TIH) and 3" turbo back should be enough to get you over the line ahead.

i know the zeds are lard arses and a fucked car with a fucked engine and just a tragic car fullstop, tho they are quite quick even in std trim...

take time to visit waw and see them there runnin in the 13's with no more boost and exhausts only as ive seen a few...(and questioned/seen there mods)

maybe rexess can shed some light on franz 300zx ?...im sure that things done some impressive numbers considering its lack of mods...

yeh carly taught me to launch...lol

step one clutch and acelerator both down to the floor whilst 1st gear is selected

step 2 when the lights go green lift the clutch foot of as fast as possible and hang on to the steering wheel

if something goes pop or bang or a strange smell appears (not ur passenger) then u did it wrong

once the car has been repaired and u have emptied ur savings account
repeat steps 1 and 2 untill u chop the oponent
