So your telling me your 5AT with 280HP (probally like 30HP less after power loss since your car is at least 6 yrs old) beat a brand new Gen Coupe with 340+ HP that weighs like 300lbs less? Every bolt on you could buy would not help you against that car. So please tell me your car has some type of forced induction or every bolt on possible with a perfect tune and serious weight reduction. Video proof please kind sir! Other wise I'm calling COMPLETE BULLSHAT on this story. Only other scenario is that guy had NO clue how to drive that car in which case its still a maybe because he would have had to F up everything on that run.
[QUOTE=Sparda1123;6573007]Thats not 100% true about all the 3.8 genesis if its the 2013 i dont know but my brother in law has a 2012 and i have full bolt ons and a tune and he only slightly pulls on me. Mine is also 5AT, but with a crappy driver i could believe it.
The OP said 2013... That's why I specified NEW & the 340+ HP rating. Nothing is impossible.

i do have full bolt ons !! gutted trunk , sparco seats,back seats removed 18in feather light wheels weighd in at 16.5lbs !! also i weigh 130lbs ... the genesis does a 0-60 in 5.3 and a quarter mile in 13.6 I dont now why every one on our forum doubts the g35 coupe so much it can compete with most of the newer v6's . I go on to other forums and they think we are more than they are when were not lol. I will get a video next time i have tons of videos vs mustang gt's, modded wrx's, modded genesis 2.0ts, 99 cobra, and a couple others also im located in between santa terrista .nm and las cruces at the moment i move alot

hey guys does any one know why the abs slip and vdc light comes on all togetgher ?? i just put some 275/40/19's my brother gave them to me ... this only happens when i turn the vdc off and ideas
So yesterday starting in the morning i had to take my brother to juarez,mexico to pick up his g35 because he got it painted down there for 350$ its a nice pearl white with flakes . So was down there i paid a shop to install my pumkin and x pipe for cheap like 60$ . My brother talked me in into staying with him for the races i kinda didnt want to because what i always here about the town but F*** it .. So its around 11pm when the race/meet starts down there we watch a couple and then some guy with a 2013 genesis start calling out my brother to race he doesnt give him the time of day so after like an hour of bothering him !!! My bro says race me the guy starts talking crap that its not worth his time and im in the same league as a 2.0 So finally he comes back and agree's (= Im all excitied never got to race a 3.8 straight up !!! So we line up i launch around 2250 1st were dead even second he slowly starts pulling a fender 3rd hit and i started pulling by 100 i had 1 1/4 cars on him !!! Im happy with the performance of my 5at ever one always talks down on my car because its a auto !!! Also I know i could have done better with the launch and shifting higher i was in tiptronic and shifting at 6600 almost everytime my redline 6900!!! Now for the best part !!! My bro's friends 08 or 09 cobra slighlty modded vs camero zl1 !! Since it was my bro's friend he let me ride with him we took the zl1 off the line had 1 1/2-2 cars the whole race he shuts down a lil after 4th gear i would have thought the zl1 was going to take the win but guess not now i know the zl1 doesnt stand a chance against the 2013 cobra!!!
To even star off with 280hp, as mentioned, is to assume that your spark plugs are fresh, air filter flowing like new, etc...Everyone always assumes that a car that is brand new with xxxhp still produces xxxhp at every moment of it's life.
