Obviously, you are on a track or somekind of closed course. If not, IBTD

From a stop, the Evo wins.

From a roll, the Z wins.

Tell him NOT to buy an '03 Z though, tranny problems = not good.

Oh, the Z will hold it's own in the twisties as well, FYI

Well,

Stock vs stock the EVO will win almost every race no worries. However, if you are talking circuit track and the 350Z is well prepped (role cage suspension all around, racing tires etc etc) The 350Z could be a very well competitor and will give you a good race.

Power is not everything, driver is everything. In the end 350z is a respectful car at the track.

stock vs. stock? I've seen it go both ways; more times than not, it's been the Z on top though



REGARDLESS, Both are excellent cars and have more than enough power to beat 99% of the cars at the track.

jazzy2461, tell your friend to get an STi if he wants to compete with you

^The 05 EVOs are stronger than the 03-04 in most cases. Still it is going to be a good race, I mean both cars weigh, dyno, and trap similiar, but from a dig, AWD if you know how to launch good (even a slower 1.9 60FT is more than enough to take a 350Z on street tires) owns the 350Z. Add a couple of bolt ons and it's not even close, only way he will be able to keep up is with a Twin Turbo or Supercharger Kit.

At trackdays my Evo has never been threatened by a 350Z. The Evo does everything just a little better: accelerate, stop, corner, etc. The Z is a nice car, just biased towards street use a little more than the Evo.
