I have lost my marbles...(GTi-R vs Z)

Hello all,

 

I Was driving back home on the dual carraigeway from a business meeting at about 10 last night, cruising along at 70 listening to tom petty when a modified GTi-R (HKS Super Drager exhaust, 18" wheels) pulls up behind me, very rudely beeps his horn, and overtakes me accelerating hard. This guy obviously had no respect for the Z, so it was time to teach him some wink.gif.

I floored the Z (which is misbehaving again due to timing being off), the autobox kicked down, and I caught up.

On seeing me in his rearview mirror the GTI-R guy drops a gear and floors it (not too hard to miss with the noise coming from that exhaust) and the GTI-R pulls slowly away from the (misbehaving Z) up to about 110m.p.h at which point the Z starts closing. By 125mph, I am right on his back bumper, by 130 I'm alongside, by 140 I'm about 4 carlenghts ahead, and by 150m.p.h he is becoming a small dot in my rearview mirror. It is at this speed that I realise I have gone completely nuts and slow down to a far more sedate 70mph, the GTI-R catches up and stays behind me for the rest of the journey (even when I slow down to 30m.p.h just to antagonise him wink.gif .

(p.s I know I should seek professional help)

Are ya talking about a Sunny or a Skyline? Just to clarify

GOOD LAD!

cool bananas i was dead up to have a go with a sunny the other night and yet he wouldent play ball,nothing i could do to entice him, he just refused to have a go with me.

Yes the Sunny is a 2.0l turbo. Bit different to a Skyline

nice one!

Isn't that just a Datsun Sunny in drag? biggrin.gif

Try taking on a proper car like a Porsche!

A large exhaust and big wheels don't make a car any faster! biggrin.gif In fact probably slower biggrin.gif

Dear Porker,

Try taking on a Porsche? how does a 1999 911 carerra 4 sound? my friend has a blue one and after driving the Z ( and after having his ass kicked in a standing mile race) he is now wondering why he spent so much money on such a slow car smile.gif By the way Porker, try buying a proper porsche ( not a 944, which as any owner of one knows was initially designed as an Audi) whats that porker? cant afford one?

Unlucky!! Ha! Ha!

Matty stands silent one arm aloft, fist clenched......thinking......

I could afford a couple of your 300ZXs but fortunately I dont frequent scrap yards too often biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Odd, cause thats where I used to get parts for my old 944, was that you I saw pulling the porsche badges off to stick on your micra?

Wasn't a Micra it was a Corsa....

 

Porsche badges on a Corsa...hence...

 

PORKER...LMFAO

OK, I'm back!

 

Some kinda Anthrax attraction or summat! biggrin.gif

 

Fuckin' hell!

 

You think you're so mighty in the Z...LMFAO!

 

GTi-R's are not to be messed with, basically they were designed for rallying and will whooopppp yer sad sorry Z arse 0-60 no sweat!

 

But get 'em to about 130ish and...seee yahhhh fucking later!

 

This is true, a GTI-R will beat the Z 0-60, but thats because driver of aforementioned (ugly) GTi-R will be on his own, whereas the Z (sex on wheels) will be weighed down with top totty

 

Brian, If I had known that, that was a fast engine I would have charged you far more!!!

Lucky you didnt get to any bends in the road, as I hear these Sunnys would have kicked your arse big time ! biggrin.gif

Remember there is no skill involved in driving in a straight line!...Unless your mechanical HICAS is knackered biggrin.gif..on the twisty stuff you wouldnt have even caught him...let alone a mighty Porsche! biggrin.gif

THATS IT! , Porker! you name a time and a place, bring your badged up corsa (if your mum will let you, she might have to do the shopping you know) and Ill kick your ass!

 

Nice one Brian but something tells me that Porker is a spotty 14 year old kid who hasn't discovered how to pull girls/masterbate hence he's spending alot of time on the this forum irritate us since our Zs are rare. How many Porsches do you see nowadays? Common as muck.

 

He probably believes a porsche is all it takes for girls to be interested in him.

 

Porker,

If I am wrong about you, please do enlighten us as to why you spend so much time on a Z forum????

 

Laterz,

Van

I honour many forums with my presence, as I spread the word of the mighty Porsche 944 Turbo S! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Mighty 944 turboS mwahahahahahaha I owned one, and I've had quicker hoovers!

Bet you dont boast that you drive a Dyson..sorry DATSUN now, though! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

 

Sunny GTI-R 0-60mph 6.0secs

300ZX Auto 0-60mph 7.5secs

300ZX with incorrect timing...

0-60mph 9.0secs!

No wonder you had trouble catching the little hatchback! biggrin.gif He probably slowed down for you! biggrin.gif Realised you were beaten, and let you go! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif
