Re: 300ZX hah, lol man. sorry to say it but ur 94 stang ain't got nothing on the Z. so ur stang can do the quarter mile in 15.1, woohoo. i wouldn't be caught dead in piece of crap like a rustang. I usually don't blast other people's cars, but if u compare a stang to the Z, ur smoking weed. it takes ford 5.0 liters to get out 215 horses, that is PITIFUL. The Z is a world class sports car, with styling unrivaled by any Ford, EVER! LOL, don't go around blasting other cars, unless the car ur comparing it to is worth something. The 90 NA put out 222 HP from a 3.0L V6, which isn't bad even by today's standards. Show me an American car with 3 liters and 222 HP. Also, ur comparing the Z NA with a V8 almost twice its (motor) size. Lets see any stang face up to a Twinturbo Z. And need I bring the stang V6 in the argument. The new 2001 V6 stangs with a much larger motor don't have anything on the 10 yr old Z's. HMMM, I WONDER WHY THE STANG V6 ISN'T EVEN LISTED IN THE PRESENT SUPERCARS LISTING. The Z is gorgeous and has the styling and handling to match. The power is little behind for today's level, but that can be fixed with a few mods, plus thats why the 350Z (300HP from normally aspirated 3.5L V6)is coming out. the stang doesn't even deserve to be in the same sentence as a _. Z. Z FOREVER<!-- Signature -->
Re: 300ZX first of all 300hp in the TT and only a 15.0 at best quarter mile time that's not all that good the new GT has 260hp and can run as quick as a 13.9. and the TT is so much more money such a rip off ..... The cobra is cheaper and is so much faster....and Japan could never design a car with a V8 to stand up to american cars.....I love a lot of import cars but honestly a 300zx a supra would blow it out of the water....same with an RX-7, WRX, NSX, these are all the fastest cars in the brand and all of them would eat the the 300zx for dinner.....and plus the best Nissan is the Skyline ohh if it were sold in North America how sweet would that be.....
Re: 300ZX why don't you go check the stats on the 2 and compare them then talk you'll realize a mustang is faster....plus the most important thing is they are amazing track cars
Re: 300ZX THE Z IS TEN YRS OLD FOR PETE'S SAKE. Your stangs don't stand a chance against a new Z or a a 10yr old TTZ. Bring out a stock stang V6 agianst the NA Z and see what u got to say. A 10 year old NA Z will kick a stang V6 (old or new) all over the place. The fact remains a stang needs 5L to do nything worthwhile. The new 350Z will have 300HP from a NA 3.5L V6. you'll get ur V8 ass kicked all over the place. Also, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we get a TT version, which would mean at least 400HP. See u rustangs keep up with that. Also, the 1990 TT Z put out 300HP 10 yrs ago, and ur comparing it with a NEW stang which will still get beat by a ten year old TT Z which had a 5.5 sec 0-60 time(tested by Motor Trend). Need I mention that with $1500 in mods a 300ZX TT will put out 400+ HP. But lets compare, the 1990 TT Z would smoke the rustangs of ten years ago hands down, hell it even smokes most of todays ones (exception of Cobra R, and some modded ones). So take ur rustang back over to the stang forum and stay there unless u got somethin worthwhile to say. Don't go around blasting other cars unless, ur car is worth something. And, compare like cars, I mean compare the NA with the V6 stang and the TT with the V8 stang. And you will see the Z smokes them both. And when u compare the TT Z with the TT supra, realize that supras came out later, and the acceleration difference is very little noticeable, until the mods are piled on, when the supra pulls away since the supra I6 is easier to mod. The RX-7 has a not so reliable rotary engine, but the supra, 300ZX and RX-7 are virtually in the same playing field and almost identical in handling, preformance, etc. Also, a TTZ would smoke a rustang in a track, most people know that. In handling a 10 yr old TT Z or NA Z would beat the crap out of a new stang GT. PURE FACT. You can't compare the Z to the NSX, cuz the NSX is a different ball game with $60k+ price tag. Compare NSX to Skyline R-34 GT-R Spec V and watch it get eaten alive. Also, the WR-X is a new car, and for ur info it would also eat your rustang alive. The new Z should give it the WRX the competition it deserves. So take ur rustang out on the streets tonight and mess with a Z and see what happens to you. <!-- Signature -->
Re: 300ZX A 10 year old TT 300ZX can run even with, if not smoke a new stang GT. And on a track, its not even a comparison. The Z would smoke a stang in handling. Guess, that says something about u and ur stang doesn't it. Most new cars are supposed to beat older ones, guess that doesn't apply to rustangs. lol<!-- Signature -->
Re: 300ZX i bought my 90 300zx for 10k and its in perfect conditon except for the shitty bose system. this car rocks and you guys are forgetting the most important reason of owning a sports car and thats impressing the hell out of the girls. you have no idea how many compliments i get when im in this car.
Re: 300ZX ok how can you say a TT would beat a new GT the new can run a 13.9 the TT can run a 15 that's what the 94 stangs do.......and a TT would get destroyed by a Supra TT no competition go compare the 2......oh and you talk about the new 300zx well Ford's planning to introduce a new 5.0l with 290 hp and a new Cobra with 350+ hp......and lets not forget the torque in both would rip any import to shreds....hp and torque are equally important ...so stop talking about having more hp when your torque is so much less......and I'm not dissing the skyline it's the true nissan supercar but it wouldn't eat an NSX they are equal both incredible cars......and the WRX would destroy the 300zx and the stang no doubt the 300zx is the slowest of japan's supercars it's a fact go compare to the rest of them.
Re: 300ZX don't trash talk cars which will smoke your 5.0L 4 year newer stang. The TT Z will smoke u, believe it or not. Is ur car stock? What do u run in the 1/4 mile? Oh, yeah, these times on this site for the 300Z TT are underrated. <!-- Signature -->
Re: 300ZX 94stang5L, just take a hint and know your role, a stang has no chance in hell against a 300zx, cobra, rousch, whatever the hell it is, it has no chance, just give it up and admit your wrong
Re: 300ZX oh so your saying the Cobra R which competes with the viper and z06 would not compete with a 300ZX..riight
Re: 300ZX do you have any idea how much a cobra is, especially a type R and a 2001?? Yeah right you can still buy a better car for under 10k, the 300ZX
Re: 300ZX i don't think you don't understand me..... the stang does not compete witth the 300ZX i'm not saying that the Z06 and the Viper don't
Re: 300ZX i think i may be of some use on this topic, i own a black '92 300zx that i bought about a year and a half ago. in the time since then i have had it upgraded to a Stillen stage VI, for about $3300. ive had it dynod at 394BHP/362lb.ft. now i bought it for $6200 leaving me at a total of about $9500. i now run a 12.92s 1/4off the bottle. my cousin has a 97 saleen mustang S351 which he paid like $34k for, thats 370BHP and i still spank him in the 1/4 by about .5-.9s and his cost more than 3x my 300zx did total.
Re: 300ZX that's because the saleen costs a lot for body kits and handling...saleen are more of a track car...for the money you paid to get your car the hp a stang could have over 400
Re: 300ZX I don't know, but the last time i checked, that was 9 years ago, where do you think you can buy a brand new 300ZX?? the mustang still costs more
Mustang V 300ZX Actually if your looking at the stats then you would know that this car rivals the modern 2001 Mustang GT but theres a little difference instead of V8 this has a V6, you see being lighter than the mustang is a very good advantage, you know what a Merkur XR4TI is? in 1986 the 2.3L (175HP) car V a 1990 5.0L (?HP but I know it's a fair bit more) Stang would get worked I had a friend who once owned a Merkur but crashed it I actually saw this race and because of the aero dynamics or the car the Merkur took off on the mustang, My point the mustang is not a good car it has only a reputation thats all people know about the mustang look at the numbers, O yes another thing most of the new Japanesse cars could eat a mustang, hell alot of the older Japanese cars could put the mustang to shame please waist our time with something more usefull then bragging about a piece of shit car<!-- Signature -->
Re: Mustang V 300ZX have you ever driven a stang they're so sweet I almost bought a 1990 300zx but I didn't like the handling I would have taken a Toyota supra 1989 over it...and a mekur could never beat a 1994 stang....and you know what funny that my gt isn't even the top model an SVT cobra would destroy all these cars....especially on the race track!!!!
Re: Mustang V 300ZX Actually I owned a 5.0L and I hated it, it didn't handle didn't have anything except a little acceleration please tell me, how much were your mods on this stang of yours? I had a hard time keeping up to a Mustang GT but that was in my 150HP Supra from 83 I'm sorry but I killed it in the corners and it stayed behind me untill we hit a straigh away then it slowly overtook me. PS my Supra doesn't stand a chance against a 300ZX! I tried and failed<!-- Signature -->
Re: Mustang V 300ZX No I own that Supra Previously mentioned and my mustangs ranged from 86 - 91 I much prefer my Supra even though it doesn't get the respect it deserves until I race some1<!-- Signature -->
