dunno....he almost seems to be playing with the Z

the F430 is a mid 12 second car I believe...maybe low 12.

or high 11's...like 11.7 or so.

The z is my friends car, it is seriously fast. The Ferrari was definitely not playing with him, if he were the 7mZ would have crushed him.

This z has also beat a gsxr 1000, supercharged viper, single turbo mkIV supras, r32 gtr's, c6 zo6 vettes etc...

There is a vid of a similarly equipped z making a 11 sec pass at 135mph...I'll find it.

here it is, I know this guy too, in fact he is a member here and posts in the vk45 board his name is Clifton, and he can vouch for both cars...

that's the 3.0 in-line 6cyl single turbo correct?I wonder the differences between that and the 2JZ, besides one more turbo

BIG difference between the 7M and the 2JZ.There's nothing the same. They're both 3 liter inline sixes, that's where the similarities end.

The 7M is derived from an older Toyota straight-six (dating back to the 60s in it's early forms).It's a great motor, but a lot of people are misinformed and scared away by the headgasket issues. I've wanted a 7M-GTE MKIII Supra (MA70) for a long time.

bwahahahaha! I wonder how it feels to get beat by an old Toyota motor in an even older Nissan shell in a Ferrari. That has to suck.
