strsk8r321: I am not even using the NOS lately, but I have a remote bottle opener and I never had problems with my car in California. I rarely drive my car other than to shows and few races here and there. The adrenaline of been behind the wheel of my car is unbelieveble. It is fast and fun. The car goes sideways very fast and when you straighten out, the G Force will glue you the the seat.

GXXXV: That happens to be a good friend of mine that was racing with a Mclaren SLR. I also almost sold the owner of that SLR when I was working at Mercedes-Benz of Beverly Hills as a Director. That SLR was bought at W.I. Simonson in Santa Monica and the owner lives in Malibu. Enzo handles well and is overall faster than my G35. However, light to light or quarter mile races, I will smoke the Enzo like I did two times in Beverly Hills.

I can. Then, some people will question the timeslip and maybe even claim that it is an edited video..... I built my car not to prove to other people the power that the car has. I had many faster cars than my G35. I modified cars for hobby. So, don't think because I can beat some exotic cars and have I dyno showing more than 800HP that it is a big deal to me. It is not!!! I am not even happy with the overall performance of my car (having built many faster cars for less $$$). Anybody can built a car from a Ford to a Mercedes that can beat an Enzo. All you need is a 11 sec 1/4 mile car or less car. I built to have fun and I love cars. Many people is this forum makes a big deal and questions my integrity.

From one former owner that went a similar route as you did what clutch assembly holds 800hp in the G? Because I wasnt aware that there were many..
I think you already admitted it but the reason a TT'd G wont beat an Enzo on the street is #1 traction and # 2 gearing.. its not going to happen in the real world, sorry unless you figured out how to get taller gears into the G.
Also was the Supra you had Auto or Manual? I could have sworn the record for a manual supra at the track was still in the low 9's. I'm not calling BS I am just curious.

I will take my car to a dyno meet. There are several clutches that will hold over 800hp. I am using RPS clutch and I have a racing transmission on the car. My Supra was an automatic and I hate to say this: I got beaten few times by other Supra that it was faster than mine (including 6 spd Supra's). My friend Ryan Woon will tell you this. He drove my car and he has his own Supra's that it is much faster than mine was. I am sure that you can search in internet and find out for yourself.

By the way Toni: http://www.wotm.com/rywo98qu.html
I know a Supra that ran in the high 7's:
on factory IRS suspension the paul efantis supra has hit 7.8's
another quick supra of note would be ryan woon's , 8.6 at 170 with the stock 6 spd transmission still in one piece....

My Supra was 1,600 HP to the wheels. I unfortunately spent too much money and I am not happy with the results. But I don't know what is the big deal. Why would I lie about where I live and what I do to my car. I put alot bigger projects than my G35. Also I know that $70,000 is alot for my car, but I have known people to sell G's and 350z's for that amount with less power to Japan, Netherlands, Germany.... I will actually take $50,000 for the car, but not less. I have offers for over $40k, but I won't take that. If I don't sell this time around, I will be putting a Nissan Titan 5.6L V8 engine on my G35 and run at 1,200+ HP to the wheels. I have the entire project planned if I don't sell my car.
