Could be a drivers race; however since the GT has a big Tq adv it should inch out. My buddy has a 05 350z and i've taken him all the time.
yea but the 05 z only has like 280 hp (or something like that ... ) unless he has mods ...

350z's stock are low 14 second cars, stock mustangs are mid to high 13 second cars. I raced a guy at work today with a 6 speed G35 and pulled on him by 5 car lengths easily. I drove a 350Z last year when I was in the market for a 2 seater, nice car but nowhere near the power of a Stang.

I can't believe anyone is calling this one a driver's race. It's only a driver's race if the driver of the Z is John Force and the driver of the GT is a toddler. The GT should spank the Z without much effort.

If you have an automatic with stock tune, it would be a tough call.

So if you have a CAI/tune this must be a no brainer, correct?

They might beat your stang...but they wouldnt stand a chance against a new style...

and if they win...its cause the driver of the stang is terrible...

and an SS camaro is no faster...

sorry, but the new gen. stangs are much faster than teh SS and the 350Z
Shooter, you really need to do some research on the new (2007+) 350z. People have posted time slips as fast as 13.1@106-107mph with an apparently stock Z. Only a couple people have run times that fast, but 13.3-13.4 is not uncommon. The fastest times posted on here are 13.4 and a 13.2 is the fastest i've ever heard off from a stock s197 gt (that was a professional).

Like I said, drivers race.

I'd say it's really even stock vs. stock.

The stang has a lot more hp potential in it though if both cars are staying N/A. Bolt-ons vs. bolt-ons, I don't see the stang losing. Brenspeed has proven that having a 400 hp (crank) N/A GT is possible.

With my mods, I certainly wouldn't fear racing any 350z. 4.1s are the great equalizer.

Thank you!!!

For the record a stock 07 GT Mustang doesn't stand a chance against a stock SS Camaro. The SS Camaro has 325 HP and 350 lb/tq. The GT has 300 HP and 305 lb/tq. do the math. Only the Mach I and the SVT Cobra are betting the SS Camero until the 09 model arrive. People keep sleeping on the Mach I's and I will show everyone what a Ford DOHC 5.2 modified can do.
