In a manual 400hp car it doesnt get any quicker than 4.2 run to 60 and rwd on top of that. All those cars that run quicker are not manual versions also awd and powee figures are underrated german cars im talkin to you. Its a german thing to lie about hp numbers. Only manual cars that are quicker are the evos fq400, fq360 run same times. So thats great performance for the 400hp range, manual, rwd, under tyred sports car. People these days dont appreciate a true sports car nor know how to compare apples to apples.
Yeah not bad at all for this car. My Supra with manual about 4 seconds flat is what it can do. Mainly since it comes with better tires and has smoother power delivery. But it is funny when people get bent out of shape on 0-60 times for RWD manual cars. Our RS3 does 3.3 seconds. And plenty of AWD car are even faster lol
Auto is the way to go for straight line runs period. In this video, every launch had an issue, this is what happens when you have a manual, getting that perfect launch is literally impossible. Especially when doing the 0-60 or even the 1/4 mile, if you mess that launch up, your time is SHOT.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed To me the manual is more of a chore. The constant shifting gets tiresome. If i lived out in the country and only had like 1 stop light and everywhere was like "hwy" roads with little to no stop signs, then manual would be fine, but i live in a heavy populated city where its almost always traffic. I own 1 manual and its not a daily, just a take it for a drive on my day off and just do like a 20-30 mile round trip on the hwy ... The automatic is just easy and has more benefits.
@@ACommenterOnRUclips That’s fine if it works for you! The beauty of buying what works best! For me, I love driving a manual! But everyone has a preference that works best for them!
4.2s 0-60mph is impressive for manual and 400hp! Once again jdm especially Nissan lied about the hp and time in a good way! It got more power then what they said on 4.5s 0-60.
Good shifting but it's almost 2023 and you still don't have a Dragy. Please just get one and your times will be more accurate and reliable, basing just off the digital speedometer is super inaccurate.
Great reviews! How are you finding 2nd gear? I drove one last week and when driving at a moderate pace, found the shift in and out of 2nd quite notchy compared to the other gears. No grinding but definitely not as smooth, cheers
I had no issues with this car. I know there is some hold on the manual cars right now do to a 2nd gear issue. But this car had 9k miles on it and seemed fine. So not sure how many cars are effected.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed thanks for that. I realised I may have asked you a similar question in one of your other videos, sorry. Thanks again and keep up the great work 👍
No one probably knows this, but I know cause I owned a z, replace them bushings man lol. That wheel hop is still there 💀, I put diff bushings on my z and the wheel hop was gone.
6 months late the dance. Pretty impressive operation of the car, no driver mod needed. I have a 2011 and have done 4.5 to 60 without the paddle shifting. One thing that impressed me is the hole shot from the Z in this video. I'm running 275s on the rear of mine with a Quaife LSD (7 speed auto) and if I jump on it, mine will roast the tires. Could be the cheap daily driver tires I use... I have bolt ons and a dyno tune but I'm not anywhere near 350 flywheel torque, maybe towards 300 (262 on the dyno (Z1) at the wheels). The Z with the 9 speed sounds like a blast, but the manuals sure are fun!
Oh thats cool!Z Yeah Z was fun to check out. We have like 30 videos with the new Z on our channel. Check out the playlist! Compared the manual Z to my manual Supra and even the new M2
That not really something to do in this car. Some Camaros and corvettes have that feature, but I wouldn’t try that I’m just any car and especially one I don’t own.
Yeah true. But at least timing it looking at the raw edit of the gauge camera I can frame by frame see when it starts and hits 60. Not too bad for a manual
Those german cars are underrated power wise. Put your car on a dyno see how much power it makes. Plus those are awd dual clutch autos. Try your cla if it had a manual guarantee you wont be quicker. Plus only 0-60 the Z after that will pull away from those cars

Brian shifting is equal to butter spreading evenly on a piece of toast, smooth af
😎🤣
Haha thanks! I do what I can!
You shift a lot cleaner than me that’s for sure! Granted, the daily is an automatic, and the weekend is my buddies focus ST
Good shifts 👌
Thanks! Easy car to work with!
Look at the AMS Performance channel. They built a 9 second Z with minimal new parts.
Yeah I've seen a bit on theirs. Should be a great platform of a car!

@@ACommenterOnRUclips If you are drag racing sure! For normal daily driving depends on the buyer, I think the manual is a lot more fun though!

Yeah it'll be fun to see what this can do with better tires! Once my car arrives I'll be doing new tires and tuning. So it should move!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed oh it already moves!

Maybe. But I don't think a 10th of a second different is worth the money on one
Great video bro!
Appreciate it! Fun time ripping in the Z!

Yeah I remember a lot of people doing that and going to Polyurethane rather then rubber. Good tip!
That’s incredibly fast! And for 40k?!
Yeah the base Z should do the same 0-60. Provided the open diff doesnt lose traction
Great shifts
Thanks! Tried my best lol

Just no
I’m surprised you don’t know about the
no lift shift
That not really something to do in this car. Some Camaros and corvettes have that feature, but I wouldn’t try that I’m just any car and especially one I don’t own.
Need a dragy meter to get accurate times, would be curious how good it would do. Great shifting!
Yeah true. But at least timing it looking at the raw edit of the gauge camera I can frame by frame see when it starts and hits 60. Not too bad for a manual
The Bridgestone tires also hold this car back.
Yeah not the best for sure
I wish they made a roadster version. I would order one today if they did
Solid performer
Yeah it's quick!
Nice bro
Thanks! Cool seeing what the Z can do!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed yup
4.3 is really good. Its a manual, its never going to be as quick as the auto.
Also was the owner of the car aware you were gonna smoke their clutch?
It’s good for a manual! And we were allowed to do this testing! It’s what the car is designed to do!
It has an Exedy heavy duty clutch stock
@@Justicefu so dropping it doesn’t cause additional wear? That just means it won’t go kaboom as quick
it can be better with shorther gear ratios :)
Although an auto z may be a bit faster during acceleration i would prefer a manual one
Same! The Z Performance auto is pretty lazy to shift. The Nismo Z is much better. But manual is still the way to go
My '15 CLA AMG can do these times stock with only 355hp
Yeah this isnt the best drag car. Our Audi S3 does 4 seconds flat with 295 HP

@@laurenarch400 top end is so fun in these Zs
Hugh Jackman's son lol

😊👍👍👍
Thanks for checking out the video!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed wlcm bro.. 😊👍
They did a bad job on this car my 370z hits 0 to 60 4 sec
0-60 for the 370z shows 5-5.5 seconds, is yours modded?
Needs even faster shifting. Give this to a slow honda driver
What?
Try launching it at 4.5k or 5.5k rpm
You are bogging doing it at 3k every time
It just spins the tires. Just not a drag car
