Well, here they are. Yesterday I went out and took some videos of my car... I FINALLY got all the mods on at one time. In 1/2 the vids I shifted @ 3k, 1/2 I was WOT. I didn't launch hard in any of them because my rear tires are shot... I guess I should point out that the somewhat rasp/gurgle sound you hear is the engine, NOT the exhaust note... Anyway, here is my car with:
Kinetix v2 Upper Plenum
Kinetix HiFlo Cats
U/R Crank Pulley
JWT Popcharger
Enjoy.
A few vids (http://www.the-top.com/wren57/kinetixJWT.zip)

I was SOO sure you got a supercharger... I was about to call you a bastard...
I didn't have a chance to see the vids with sound... but it looks fast.
So do you have an exhaust too or just the cats?
And has anyone in the 350 world put the awd system from the g35 4 door in a 350 or 2dr g35 yet?

Heh. You gotta see them w/ the sound, because it is the sound that is awesome:yes:. I don't have an exhaust right now, gonna hold off on that until Injen releases their straight-tip exhaust. I don't know of anyone that has an AWD Z except for one tuner that swapped a AWD rb26dett into a Z for an uphill rally. People have talked about it, but too much $$$ with not enough return.

I like the way it sounds. What happened with the vette man. Were either of u trying cause it sounded like it but i didn't see any gains or losses in distance.

^^ Your camera guys sucks ass. tell him to masterbate more so he's stronger... camera was all over the place.
I LOVE the sound of your care at WOT!! What's the total vested amount at this point? Have you ran an 1/4's to see your time?

I don't want to think about how much money I've spent... it is WELL upwards of 4k at this point including everything in my sig. I haven't been to the track with my mods yet because there is only an 1/8 around here, but I will go home soon and run the 1/4 there. Glad yall like the videos. :) After I get full exhaust I'm gonna buy a nice tripod so the vids can be smoother. ;)

just out of curiousity, what does your car run stock. not what pro drivers like road and track, but actual real people track times? cause i walked slightly on a stock one all motor with my civicon the freeway till about 120mph.
and what exactly is a popcharger?

I have a Sony Handycam DCR-TRV33, so I can take really long high-quality movies, just can't figure how to get them from the camcorder tape to my computer:o.
I ran a 14.2 stock after having the car for only 1500 miles. It is my first manual car, and I have since gotten MUCH better at driving it. People have run anywhere between 13.7-15+ stock, depending on driver and weather conditions. I hope I can hit 13.8 or lower... too bad my tires are BALD... :mad:
A popcharger is just basically a short ram intake...

ok, high 13's to low 15's makes sense i guess..
good luck with you car.... nice to see something other than a v8 staying with a corvette... mine will be there also... but hopefully i wont stay with them...

Danm highlander i just went to the local nissan dealer and saw a 350z they were tunning. The outside look awesome. Veliside cf body kit and wing. (that's what they told me) Volk racing rims in bronze 19's and stillen exhaust. The guy that was working on it also told me its at around 600whp right now and it was in for more stuff. But that car looked so clean it's unbelivable. and it was blackt too. Urs will be off the hook when it's done.

600rwhp... that guy is a LIAR. Nobody has made that much yet; the most anyone has squeezed has been like 450rwhp with a custom twin turbo and engine tuning... without touching the internals, 600rwhp is asking for an explosion. What dealer did you go to?
