nissanman312 Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Ok somthing has come up which would possibly see a 370z running 600bhp and around the 500 tourqe mark i cant say what it is just yet i will report back when i get some more details But apart from the obvious fact the engine would need building and also a strong clutch my question is would this power destroy the standard manual box / prop shaft/drive shafts etc etc?

ZMANALEX Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 I am running more power and torque than that, and I am still on the oem box, prop and drive shafts on my 2005 DE 350. Quote

Thats good to hear yours is a twin turbo isnt it alex? so you think the 370 drive train would be good for it ? Edited November 2, 2015 by nissanman312 Quote

Ebized Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 all track use. Oh, and the odd drive-out Quote
Richf Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 I would think that launching it that will kill the drivetrain . I used to see lots of 500hp+ Skylines run quite happily on the track and road for years and break a diff first time on the drag strip, same with Evo's A little mechanical sympathy will go a long way Quote

brillomaster Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 launching a car from a standard start is indeed a killer... strange that car performance is based so heavily on it, when actually getting a 0-60 time of 3.6 seconds or whatever will likely kill the drivetrain after a few attempts. As you say, far better to get it rolling and get the clutch fully engaged before giving it a bootful! Quote
