    Whooped the crap out of a Turbo 200sx the other day - could have been a bad driver, but hey my n/a still packs a punch.

    Anyone else feel like telling some 300z ego boosting stories?

    I spent the whole day at Eastern Creek Raceway on Saturday passing, S13's, Skylines, an S6 RX7 and even an Evo, got to love that. Mind you mines a TT.

    I had a great run the other day....

    me in the zed, I absolutely trashed the poor kid...

    he just wasnt peddling fast enough...... he could have been a crap rider though cos his mountain bike had heaps of gears.

    Cheers

    i find it hard to believe that an NA zed could beat a turbo silvia

    My N/A often leaves S13's, 180SX in the rear view mirror. Not to mention 97% of those commodores. ESP if they are Auto he he he.....

    I think most of them are just full of fruits though, lots of noise but not much else..........

    Ya ya i had fun with a 180 yesterday along Pacific Hwy. I'm planning on modding my N/A for the track which will hopefully stop my urges to Boy Race on public roads. :rolleyes: and not lose the 1 point i have left.

    An that note does anyone have any suggested upgrades for an N/A besides the usually prescriped
    Hi Flow Intake
    Headers
    Sports Exhaust + Dump Pipes
    Underpulley upgrade?

    Does an ECU Computer upgrade do much for an N/A?

    yes it does....it probably is the best upgrade to gain performance....along with all the others you mentioned....

    so get what you want on the car including exhaust, pod etc etc then chip it and tune to get the best results out of the mods....

    When my car was an NA...

    It went so faaaaassssst i swear it litteraly blew other cars off the road. probably because the wind it was generating was so fast! I swear one time in 2004 i went so fast that by the time i had stopped, i was in like 2014!! Now thats pretty fast!!
    Sorry guys, Just had to join in!! lol!!! :)

    No, but in all seriousness NA needs more credit, my Zed was origanaly a NA and i would give my mates R32 GTST a good run, would easily shred the old commy. A fantastic Non Turbo car. With a few good mods they go hard. Would always opt for the manul but.

    well to be a 200sx.. would have to be s14, sr20 180 or s15
    turbo sr20 should shit on an na zed, my mates s15 would give my TT a run for its money.. although his is now boosted to 14 pounds

    my na can't sprint as well as some, but she can bear-hug roundabouts... from the outside lane. and to me that's way more fun.
