2003-2005 350Z, 350Z Nismo R Tune and 350z Nismo S Tune are 14.0- 14.4 1/4 mile cars.
The 2004 GTO is a 13.5-13.8 1/4 mile car. I know some people have gone 13.1 with them stock, but I'm using mag times because that eliminates the variables.
The 2007 350Z and the 2007 Nismo 350Z are 13.6-13.7.
So the car he raced, a 2007 as stated by the OP is a drivers race with the 2004 GTO, and with his mods the GTO gets the upper hand.
So we don't get into a pissing match, can you please post some links to a reputable source for these claims. If you would like I can post links to my claims.

And where did I say otherwise???
There are such crappy Z times in mags because they are rarely tested.
I could have said the '07+ Z is a 13.1 sec car, and the pre-'07 is a 13.6 sec car because-
