Keeping up with an 370z on my v6
K&n cool air intake & headers & cams. Will I be able to keep up with my brother 370z with those installed?
|
Is someone making Cams for the LFX?
|
How are you getting headers on a 2013 V6? Not possible and not like it would matter.
|
You need to go FI to keep up or beat a 370z.
|
FI?
I don't want a turbo or supercharger. |

You are comparing low 13 second car to low 14 second car. He will put bus length on you easy.

Bone stock 370z on average would put 2-3 lengths on a bolt on auto V6, you're going to get cracked.
|
Is there a site just dedicated to camaro street racing? It's pretty much all my daughter talks about when we drive around. She's 9 and is obsessed with which cars we can race and beat. Haha!

With full bolt ons(intake/exhaust) andg gears the 370z is mid 12 second car @ 111-113 mph

+1 The mods and admin probably had seizures and foamed at the mouth when they heard about the series "street outlaws"! I live in okc and had my accord dyno'd at chucks shop(the guy with goatee and white mustang). |

Personally I don't care, but I can see where they're coming from. |

The Camaro 6 has some serious potential for tuning, while the 370Z is almost completely tapped out tune wise for an engine. The Z motor is nearing the end of it's era, as they have to now turbo charge to get over that 420-430 HP bump after seriously modifying the engine. I know a lot of people who have tried, and blew the block because too much pressure and heat. The BMW motor has the same issue on the straight 6, only so much can be brought out before it becomes a time-bomb. Right about the same horsepower range as the Z also. Hell, they both have trouble running without being tuned :P

RX Performance has ported heads and MACE Engineering makes camshafts for the v6. I've purchased the cams....just waiting :) |

Lol misread, pardon. |
Earlier post asked if there were cams for the LFX and yes, in stock.

Well I did 13.6 in what basically amounts to the 4 door version of the 370z that weighs 400 lbs more and has a good 30 less hp and 2 less gears. bench racing ftw |

As everyone should know by now. G35 will always be here to inform us that imports smoke camaro's.
His G35 is faster than my ZL1. It's depressing. |
dont know what year your v6 is but if it has the LFX engine you cant get headers.
And considering the number 1 person on the v6 fast list for bolt ons comes in at 13.4 with DRs/Skinnies, Injen CAI, ARH Longtubes/High Flow Cats, SS Axle Back, Trifecta Tune. Outside of Force induction I'm going to have to hand it to the nissan |
I apologize i misread your post, with cams I think you would stand a good chance

The 370z has a lot of heat issues. Large aftermarket oil coolers are a must. In addition, there are certainly 370z's with more horsepower than any v6 camaro on this forum. However, the big problem is the torque. Even with twin turbos, I haven't seen any information on a z with more than 500 ft*lbs of torque. In addition, as you mentioned, tuning is a big problem. There are many more camaros than 370z's out there. There is less of an incentive to getting everything exactly right. Apparently, tuners can't get the VVEL tuning down,thus leaving power and durability on the table. However, that being said, the z has a huge weight advantage. Basically, the camaro needs to be very highly modified (FI) to keep up with a bolt-on z without FI. |

There is a v6 twin turbo on this forum that made just over 600rwtq running 11s. Look at the FI dyno list and read his build Gretchen

No bought I would bet my heads/cam $5k Camaro would give his $50k car a run for its money

The reason you don't see the correct times in Vegas is because LV Motor speedway sucks. I too live in Vegas but I'm originally from California. Compared to the tracks in California the Vegas track is horrible. The prep on the track is the worst. Not to mention, Vegas is at a higher elevation than places that most magazines test cars. So yeah, in Vegas a 370z may run closer to high 13's but at sea level where cars are usually tested, it will run low 13's all day long. At a good track at sea level the 370z is good for 13.2-13.3 on average with some people even hitting 13.1. So just because you don't see it happen in Vegas doesn't mean that it doesn't happen in other places. My old 06 LS2 Vette would only run 13.5 (on stock run flats), does that mean that LS2 Vettes only run mid 13's? Hell no, everyone knows they are good for 12.7-12.9 in stock form. My Camaro SS should run 12.9-13.1 but does it run that here in Vegas? Nope, much slower. As for the OP's question, your V6 Camaro will have to be made as fast as the V8 Camaro in order to run with a 370z. Personally, rather than putting all that money into the V6 it would just be cheaper and easier to trade your car in for a V8. Bolt on's on the SS will leave the 370z in the dust. |

Yep that explains it, LVMS sucks, someone call and have them close the track down. :bow:370Z |
