Here's a sideline run of my 06 Z going up against a stock 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia from the Shift-S3ctor Airstrip Attack couple of weekends ago. My mods are Halltech KBII/Tune. The run was from 50-150 with both cars beginning in 2nd gear.

I'd post up a video on an Intake/Tune Z vs a 458 but I dont want to get banned again lol also seen multiple vids of lightly modded Z's beating 2012 GTRs from rolls. GTRs unless they are modded you don't have to worry about them from a roll, but modded watch out the new ones are nasty

My nephew has a new GTR and I’ve driven it a few times. I think my Z might be just a click faster from a roll.

From a dig it would crush me!

A lightly modded Z is very potent

actually youtube has a few good vids....
By the way what is the difference between a tune only 2012+ GTR vs a tune only 2009-2011 GTR ?
Huge difference in power? I thought the motor and turbos remained the same

I'm under the impression that Tune only GTRs pre 2012 arent even as fast as new stock GTRs

A friends 2012 GTR (think the turbos are larger on the 2012's) just ran a 10.30 @ 137mph with a few bolt ons and tune...

Here is a link to my 100% stock '06 Z vs a tuned 2012 GTR...

Dont pay attention to the title, The GTR owner wanted to justify that I must have had mods to run with in 0.5 second 60-130 mph.

1st run he took off at 40 mph and caught me completely off guard (we were supposed to go at 55)... second run I got a bit of a jump. We had V-boxes in both cars.. he was just 0.5 quicker... his best to my best that day. Again, my Z is all stock!

PS What up Kerrdogg!!
