Nissan tunes those Z's soo well out of the factory that they really don't take well to mods or tuning. FI is a different story.

The computer programcan change how a car 'feels' at different throttle settings. Some are twitchy to give the impression of increased performance, and others are programmed to be more progressive throttle response for smoother take offs.

My dads girlfriend owns a 350Z and when I drive it, it seems to pack a whole lot more punch. I hope I'm wrong, b/c I love my stang and want it to own. I haven't opened up on the Z yet since I haven't had a chance to drive it by myself yet. But it seems to accelerate way faster than my stang at mild throttle. I guess I haven't had much of a chance to compare though. New edge means 99-04 correct?
oh okay, yea because that throttle response is very very sensitive on those cars. Or more so than the mustangs. It might just feel like its quicker. But like I said, I still haven't had a chance to open it up. Has anyone else driven one personally to compare the two?

My father in law had a g35 coupe...said it was too slow and bought one of these [8D]:
I drove it and, well it felt like an import. Too tight and crammed for my blood.

Man when he told me what he was out of, I walked away from him without speaking, grabbed a beer from the fridge opened it.....went back outside (after drinking half a beer) and told him "That's more than I payed for my house" and I was quiet the whole afternoon, well until he let me drive it. Took me 10min to get it going...the damn thing asks you questions and all kinds of other shyt. Personally I would have bought a yach with that loot...[&:]

One of my best friends has a 350Z auto, he ran stock a 14.2, which is better than most of the new edge gt's... The 05-06 gt's will beat it of course.

Easier to mod? Mustang of course, he even says it himself... but he get's 30x the looks I get in my stang. Matter of fact, he gets more looks in his car than I did on my GSX-R 750.
