- It's a battle of Japanese icons in this battle of 350Z vs Civic hatch. Jorge Torres and his heavy but powerful Nissan 350Z go head to head against David Cortes and his light but lower-powered Civic EK track car. Each has one side of the speed equation to their advantage and one side that is holding them back. With this combination, it’s going to come down to driver skill to find the winner.

As always with “Driver Battles,” these cars are pretty far from stock. Starting with Jorge’s 2005 Nissan 350Z, he has a stock block with a Vortech supercharger, Deatschwerks 600cc fuel injectors, Nismo exhaust, uprev tuned to 91 octane, Feal 442 coilovers, Rays Nismo 57CR wheels and 275/35R18 Nitto NT01 tires. David’s 1998 Honda Civic EK hatch has also seen its fair share of upgrades, with a Greddy turbo kit, 440 RC injectors, a Hondata S300, Riaction coilovers and 225/45R17 Nitto NT01 tires.
With a whole day on the track and tires that don’t fall off, both Jorge and David have plenty of time to find extra speed on the track in this battle of Z vs Civic. It’s all going to come down to who can best save time in the corners and keep their foot down in the straights.

Thank you for having me!! It was an awesome experience! Driving line made a badass video and it couldnt be done without nitto. Such a consistent grippy tire. Made a lot of cool memories and even cooler people! Jorge is FAST!! It was a pleasure racing you.
Fun fact: my PB last was my very last lap of the day. Only reason I went out is because my gf( now my fiancé ❤️) told me to go out one more time and send it!
Was so much fun bro 🤟 🏁 blessed to be a part of it!
You could hear how much longer the Z was on the gas going into the corner. But man both these cars are sick. Track oriented tuners for the win
Awesome video! had an aamzing time filming on Button willow! Leet me know when I can defend my crown next time you go to Big Willow :)
Do more of these time attack battles!
Not too surprised on the outcome… The Z is faster on paper as well as a driver who seemed more experienced. Loved the 350 but the civic was no slouch, with more seat time, I can see the civic reaching the 2 or even sub 2 mark at CVR
I love this series! I just signed up with my LS3 350z maybe a battle against a turbo VQ would be cool.
For a non v tec with eBay turbo that was good for the honda
Vtec’s+ Turbo kits don't mix. Due to the nature of the b16/b18’s and their high compression ratios, the B20 block which he's running specifically from a CRV deals better with boost. Hopefully, that makes sense.
@@RGCortes B16/18 and K series work just fine with turbo. Not sure what you on about
@@djsonicc 👍🏻Your right I'm wrong😂. I had a Boosted 2000 Si back when they first came out. Yes they work just fine but people craved the b20 block + boosted for a reason.
wow guys keep it up!...Good content love the vids
David is a badass dude I always take my car to him for my alignments. You did awesome man. I'm sure he could get some more time out of that ek.
You could see Jorge was more experienced. On throttle longer and carrying more speed not only in the straights but in the corners as well. Had better and more aggressive lines.
I'm definitely signing up!!
He said wow 225 all around that’s a big setup. Me over here 👀 damn I thought my 245 squared setup was small lolololol
Keep it up
Sooo much turbo noise! The blow off valves made this video epic.
I have E46 m3 race car and will love to do this one day
The homie Jorge !! 💯
🏁
Reallyyy wanna bring out my 97 celica gt to the track but that’s a whole trip ☹️
Youll be glad you did though just do it 😀
Anyone know what wide body for the civic that is? Also possibly wheel specs
M&m factory widebody
Rota grids 15X9 +15
Any other questions lmk!
@monrovia_alignment
A gutted Z with a turbo kit should probably weigh about 3k or less… Coming from a Z owner who just weighed his lol
Sick race tho. Both insanely clean builds
I signed up so hopefully i get picked lol
They both have the typical bodies of people who built there cars in the garage
trefiddy all the way
Nice Z!
I am in
2600lbs is appropriate for a 98 civic hatch with a b20 swap
Once i finish my mr2 im coming out there i see a lot of slow drivers out there 😂. Fwd is just not great for the track they have inherent limits no matter the setup plus he was done on power too no chance
Not like the fastest TA cars aren’t fwd or anything…
I have and MR2 turbo and a Z, but i definitely wouldn't sleep on a well setup front wheel drive car. If anything you can push them harder than an MR2.
@@Soyblackpower yeah at speed the mr2 can be kinda sketch theres fast fwd cars for sure but in terms of out right potential on a track rwd and awd are better
@@NormalGuy in the world? 😂 i need to see that list
@@currythegoatofmankindthepa5156 Just look up Will Au-Yeung's records.
Civic gonna win😊
Stock B20 really? How did they ever think this was a fair race when the last race was a k20 civic vs a stock hp 350z and the 350z still won. This Z has 420hp! Smh, at least drop a k motor in it homie or least a b18 with turbo.
Poor civic didn't have a chance🤦
Nissan dominates track events
Dude had way more power. And bigger tires.
