A mate of mine owns Clarksons old SL55 AMG and reckons it would piss all over my Z. I've got a SWB with basic mods - filter, decat, chip, 1 bar boost, and it feels pretty quick. What are my chances of shutting him up? :)

 

I reckon they'll be about neck and neck, the SWB flies to 100 and we wont be going over that anyway, cos someone said it was illegal?? Anyone have experience of the Merc? Paul C, hope you read this, how does your Z compare to the AMG?

Raced an SL55 AMG in my silver zed. My car was Decatted, light underdrive pully, JWT chip, boost up to 16psi, Apexi induction.

 

It p1ssed all over me like i was driving a slow old family car.

 

You were Lol :D :nelson: ;)

iv driven both & the SL55 is deffo quicker LOL!

When did you drive my Z? :)

Exactly!

 

Don't bother unless your 300zx has the same engine mods as Macca!

 

Richard :cool:

 

LOL :rofl:

Wasn't from a standing start, was about 30mhp we started and he was over two car lengths in front before we hit 90. Was the only thing I ever came accross that beat the silver zed and by heck did it beat it hand down!

Were you hiting a 12.9 1/4 @120 in that one?

 

Bottom line is all Z's are different depending on mods and condition, this one's got a 6k mile engine, SWB, and feels half as quick again as my last decatted Z. Nothing has touched it on the road so far, pissed all over a Porsche Carrera lol and I mean left it for dead!

LOL! when you wasnt looking! :p

this will be the 1st time then! :rofl:

 

unless you have big tubs you are not gonna beat him! (unless he's an OAP & cant press the throttle pedal all the way down!! :D)

 

porsches are easy bait unless its a Turbo! my mate has one thats chipped with 500+bhp - man thats quick too :)

 

the torque from a 55AMG is really unbelievable! they just keep on pulling!

Off to Santa Pod for some real proven times I reckon Trevz? Thats a pretty fast time for a car the size of the Zed.

just be grateful its not a AMG65 biturbo! that would be really embarrasing!! :D

I would love one of those!!

612 bhp!

i'm a big fan of beating more powerful more expensive cars, but it seems most people are more sceptical.

i love the amg's, the power is emence!

santa pod will answer all questions!

Never had a 1/4 mile timed in it so couldn't tell you. But after driving near on fifteen zeds its by far and away the quickest ive driven.
