@@jkleinhu4406 really tho that 15% rule is just a blanket rule and is typically not that accurate. Racecar parts/pieces=slightly less drivetrain loss. It's also N/A and A hybrid. There's no telling what the car actually does or doesnt make.
Jonas is pointing out that what they calculated as crank power is actually a 13.3% drivetrain loss. I don't think anyone is questioning the ballpark of 15% that everyone uses, but that their math was not correct if they are assuming 15% loss. That's why it's best to just speak in WHP instead of theorizing how much drivetrain loss you have. Unless you have put your motor on an engine dynamometer, then you will know the exact drivetrain loss.
SwaffyX a 1000whp drag built motor wouldn’t stand a chance on a racetrack which is what this was built for. Sure big power is cool, but i bet this thing would leave it in the dust thanks to the electric power.
Would never be able to make enough power for how small their packaging has to be. They’re currently using a 1.6L turbo V6 with hybrid technology. Cars would be significantly slower if they had to run engines that small with no turbo, hybrid or not.
@@z33driverjg91 lol sounds like sex? To those who haven't heard a cammed V8 before maybe. VQ's sounding like ass is pretty much a meme in the car community at this point.
@@MrCHAMMOND well no shit it sounds bad compared to a v8. Try comparing it to other v6s. When they came out everybody loved them because they had a unique sound. Now every modern v6 sounds like a vq
this car is so dope, i saw it at mosport last year and it was so sick! i hope sometime this season there will be spectator events so i could see this car in person again! seeing him with his Z and how dialed it looks is why i want sasha to tune my cars!
I go to the 24hrs of Daytona every year and all I can think about is this car showing the manufacturers out there who’s boss. And Sasha maniacally laughing
this is insaine amount of engineering, great stuff guy, I'm so glad that this works in this early stage of development.... please keep track of this car and try to give us as much as possible of the content
This car is absolutely insane, and what I have been wanting to do to my minitruck. Except I need a donor VQ. And a huge pile of parts, mostly custom fabricated.
It'll be interesting to see at what point they are able to gain significant lap time speed over the lighter non-hybrid car. I'm sure it'll come eventually but it's the eternal battle against weight when you start adding batteries
You don't need a big battery pack though. Whenever they brake it is sending power back to the battery. So while it can use that battery pretty quickly it also regains it pretty quickly as well. The KERS is usually used on a straight at full power so the rest of the course it's not really using a lot of the battery power.
That's my kind of hybrid ! The spark cut shift is great, I bet on camera it flattens the sound a bit. I remember the rally Clio R3 cars, not fast, but with the Sadev gearbox you would jump if the guys shifted just next to you. Congratulation to the guys at On point dyno, great philosophy !
Once Sasha figures out the rear dampers, the top speed on the straight will noticeably go up, "Kind of Proud" Sasha is "kind of" humble then!! this is revolutionary Sasha be proud!
650 WHEEL HORSEPOWERS = 750 CRANK HORSEPOWERS (15% drivetrain loss).
It's almost like you knew the internet would freak about this..lol.
Ready to BANG that crazy Porscha again 🤼
If it’s 15% loss than the wheel hp is 638

That really is the best sounding 350z I've ever heard
straight cut gears, high-revving VQ, pressurized shifting ... this car must be orgasmic to drive
its the dog box sequential shifters
@@whereyomomahh Right.... aren't those able to shift quicker due to some kinda pressurised air? I heard it in a video somewhere... I dunno
@@Lofi.z34 the paddles use pressurized air not the gearboz
I think it sounded better when it was revving to 9k. th-cam.com/video/S64FUcKKJuI/w-d-xo.html
Now THIS, is the vq endgame
I believe Fast Intentions and maybe Z1 has built a 1000+ whp 370z
This car is such a unique piece of art though 🔥

Agreed. This is GG for N/A VQ easily.
@@Lofi.z34 that's using forced induction though, this is a na track monster.
@@NorthCamZ I've gotten more mature in these past 3 years and I still love this car
You made the choice F1 should have made : Hybrid NA. Great sound, great engineering!
there have been electric kers in f1 since 2009...

@@ryanmalin Back in 2009-2013 the KERS accompanied a 2.4 N/A V8, since 2014 they've been using the 1.6 turbo V6's
The reason they went turbo, though, was for efficiency/longevity sake.
I would code a ''danger to manifold'' instead of OVER RPM just for fun :)
Hahaha
Engine Off could also be 'Ejecto-Seato, cuz!'
Or “blow the welds on the intake manifold”.
No it should say "ItS oVeR 9000!!!!"
*floorpan drops out*
Thats like something you'd see at Pikes Peak
A pikes peak Z would be an amazing sight, for sure
kinda, although at the top the air is so thin NA cars start to struggle
I am suddenly no longer happy with my 350Z's performance. Sash giving all 350Z owners serious envy.
Yeah, I felt like that I'm G. So I'm putting in a 2JZ-VVTI. Lol... the RB26 was to expensive.
Try driving a regular 350z after driving Sasha's 350z, I bet it will feel like ass😂
I honestly don't even know if I want to drive Sasha's 350z. I can control mine no problem but whew Kels might be a bit too much car for me.
He more than doubled the stock hp
just contact Jim Wolf and throw money at the engine, thats exactly what Sasha did...
We need more Sasha's in the world. Just a man with a full commitment to go fast.
And people say a VQ is a bad sounding engine...
A worked, high revving V6 is an aural symphony.
It is a horrible sounding engine lol. This one which was heavily modified doesn't change the rest that sound like shit.
Code Cody you’ve obviously never heard a cammed vq35hr 350z with tomei 272 cams it sounds like sex
@@z33driverjg91 lol sounds like sex? To those who haven't heard a cammed V8 before maybe. VQ's sounding like ass is pretty much a meme in the car community at this point.
To be fair, no v6 & v8 engines gonna sound bad even stock. Both have good tone note.

I don’t think you have to worry about cars coming up behind you in that thing.
This thing is really unbelievable
Uh, hell yeah it is!
"the more power you have the harder it is to get it perfect"
Miata owners - * not sure if compliment...... *
That’s why stock miatas are easy to drive
Getting some definite "DANGER TO MANIFOLD" vibes from the dash. Love it!
EARGASMS!!!!! From the ITBs, to the exhaust and the straight cut gearbox. So many gasms 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is by far my favorite VQ. You can tell he is an amazing engineer by the level of thought that goes into his ideas. Truly pushing the boundaries.
If I had a 350z right now I'd be waaaay too jealous of the sound.
Loved every moment. This project is too cool! Thank you Speed Academy and Mountain Pass Performance for sharing the development process.
Can confirm, title not click bait! This thing sounds exactly like something out of NFS Shift 2.
Who would’ve thought when we were kids playing with RC cars that one day we’d be adults building full size ones?
Is it radio controlled??? :0
Sasha is cooler than cool! This guy was logging every single thing on forums when building up the VQ
Where can I find his posts?
River.CA Search SG Motorsport 350z and educate yourself my friend. Have fun 💎
Love the raspy traction control noises, sounds like a GT car.
this guy is a mad scientist...respect for racing what you build and pushing the limits.
Holy actual shit. Single exit exhaust out the center of the diffuser is the sexiest thing I've ever seen
this car is so dope, i saw it at mosport last year and it was so sick! i hope sometime this season there will be spectator events so i could see this car in person again! seeing him with his Z and how dialed it looks is why i want sasha to tune my cars!
I go to the 24hrs of Daytona every year and all I can think about is this car showing the manufacturers out there who’s boss. And Sasha maniacally laughing
Not really a fair comparison, Gtlm cars only have around 500hp to be even competition... this thing is also hybrid which none of the gtlm cars are.
This wouldnt stand a hairs chance against a GTLM car. As amazing as this 350z is, those vehicles are in another realm
Absolutely love it!!!
The sound is fantastic! All the tech! The fact it's like wrestling a beast when driving it! 10/10
His going to become famous one day. I can feel it.
The sound of the shift cut reminds me of the Ferrari FXX-K. Sounds soooooo good.
Im saying! Sounds like a 599xx from the inside.
Definitely not click bait. This is the best sounding VQ and perhaps V6 I've heard up to now! Amazing project.
This is the most unbelievable Z I have ever seen. Keep up the work Sasha and team.
One of the sickest 350z builds in the world period. I love that car
One of the very few VQ engine powered cars that sound good
One of the most amazing cars being built right now! Sasha, your work is inspiring!
Jesus that thing is a monster!!! Makes me want to buy another 350z but an HR version ofcourse, and build a high horspower n/a set up like this!
Sasha please bring this to Zcon this year in Tennessee show Nissan what passion can inspire.
My favorite sounds in race cars are transmission whine. I absolutely love it.
Hopefully it can be featured on the new Gran Turismo.
Deserves to be
That build is no joke ! Incredible 🔥
I'm loving the hockey tape radio delete, very Canadian of you Sasha!
Torque must feel insane in that Z
Dude the incab reminds me so much of grand turismo 🔥🔥
Literally moves like the old gt1 cars. Too dope.
6:58 ABS fault. I had a flashback "danger to manifold" moment!!
In sane! What a dream project. Well done sasha. Youˋre the man

This things insane! great driving too Sasha 🙌🏼💪🏼
That thing is nasty!! Great work Sasha!
Beautiful noise!😍
Pure power of n/a monster!
What an amazing car and build! Just amps me up to get my build finished!! Well done team!
Greatest sounding trombone ever made.
You guys really outdid your self with the video, and congratulations to Sasha, what an accomplishment.
no matter what happens ... I ♡ You ..... this car is a little piece of art ♡
Every time I lose interest in my Z, I watch this shit and Sasha gets me lit every time to keep making it better!
2:40 Thinking there's something wrong with suspension, it's all over the place.
10:35 Found out why.
I LOVED this video, both the content and the videography good job fellas!
I can't tolerate how most VQs sounds but that's one VQ I can listen to all day .
This is an incredibly cool project, shoutout to Sasha for being a badass.
what a speedy high rev screaming machine!!
Wow, that sounds amazing.
Sasha is a legend! It's so cool what he's doing, even if it isn't faster (which I bet it will be when he's done with it).
This car is absolutely insane, and what I have been wanting to do to my minitruck. Except I need a donor VQ. And a huge pile of parts, mostly custom fabricated.

Love this 350z hybrid! Hope it all goes well for sasha
I’ve worked and driven lots of Porsches, Mclarens, lambo, and this sounds like a super car ❤
Thats things going to be awesome man!! Sound eargasmic lol
This could be the future. Hybrid builds. Great way to add more power without straining the engine.
hybrid with a naturally aspirated motor is fuckin awesome.
Such a cool car. Love this thing
That's some fancy left foot braking there!
That ignition cut for shifts makes beautiful gunshots each shift!!!
What a beast, loving it 🏁
I love watching features on this genius! Keep going man!
The sound is unreal. In person I’m sure unforgettable
This car needs to be featured in granturismo.

Depends on the track too. On a different track with longer straight sections the power advantage would show.
You pretty much just have to look over at f1 to see this
@@frankthetankricard definitely. The higher the speed the better the hybrid would perform
I saw this in person but back when it was green. That thing moves and sounds deadly. This is how you build a Z car.
This sound is insane.
That sound and the punch of that shift how could you not subscribe.🤤🤤🤤
Awsome episode!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
So impressed!!!!!

Love the update, keep em coming.
Fantastic. You've come a long way

Good choice for your daily driver with something more exotic on the weekend.
Thanks for the eargasm.
