Guys,

 

A lad at work with a standard MR2 Turbo reckons that he can beat not onyl my car, 300zx tuned to high 300bhp's, but alos kick the arse of any s14 on a 1/4 mile strip.

 

He also reckons that a standard MR2 does the 1/4 mile in 13.5s......

 

How can this be, my 300zx standard has a quicker 0-60 and 0-100, and yet he claims his 1/4 mile time is better than most 300zx standard 1.4 times of about 14 seconds......

 

What do u guys think?

 

I am def goign to race him just to keep him quiet I think!!

This thread makes me laff :rofl:

 

Can't we all just get along?

 

In my eyes it's not just about the speed, it's the image, the looks, the luxury, the pure road prescence. The 300zx is not meant to be lightweight racer, it's a luxurious beast that just happens to be quick as stink when you mash the fun pedal. :hyper:

 

Remember kids, arguing on the internet is like the special olympics. Even if you win you're still retarded... :p

 

Also, people that come on other boards with the sole intent of winding up other members must be lonely or maybe attention seeking in some way... it's pretty sad really mate. In short, enjoy your car, go back to your MR2 buddies and tell them how great it was arguing with strangers over the internet, and try and chill the **** out before you bust something... :smw:

This thread is a pile of ****, if I wanted a Mister 2 I would have bought one, but I didn't, IMHO they are cheap, nasty little cars, so stop comming on here yabbering about them.

 

I think MR2 owners buy them because they cant afford the likes of a Z or the running costs associated lol

 

I dont like the look of them, I dont like the sound of them, and I dont like the interior of them. An MR2 turbo to the standard bystander would just be an MR2, 'oh look another mr2' they look horrible IMHO! The Z is more of a head turner, more luxurious and IMHO a better car.

 

I also dont like the people who drive them as they all seem to be on here just to wind people up? and they definatly sound like they have something to prove? perhaps because they do, because everyone knows the MR2T is over rated, over sized mx5.

 

The MR2 turbo is perhaps quick down the quater, but not as quick as a Z ;). Find me the documented times from a reputable car road test company that shows the MR2 turbo is better than a Z? And how do we know those mr2's are stock? I have seen MR2 turbos run rubish 1/4 miles? same as I have seen Z's run rubbish so quit yabbering on about the best ones you have seen!

 

On the road, equal in any gear, the Z floors it, bye bye MR2, and the comment about bhp per ton, its not about, its about total torque output that will relate to the overall faster car.

 

And round the twisties mate no problem, cue my racelogic, nearly a foot of rubber either side of the rear and 400bhp ;) see you any time mate, and I wont even use the nos either I wont need it!

 

PMSL :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Goit,

 

>>nope not gut the car, just remove all the luxurious extras that come as standard as it's a GT & not meant for the drag or british b roads but with a little fettling will out perform the MR2 in both.

 

Oh sorry didn’t you know that the majority of Mr2’s come with air con, leather as well? The Mr2 is no sparsely furnished economy hatch. Anyway who are you kidding, I would hardly describe the 300zx as luxury. The ZX has some hideous tweed cloth interior not only on the seats but also on the flipping dash board!

 

Ooo yeah feel that luxurious nylon finish!

 

>>Flexablity is the key word here. It can easily be either. wheres as drive 200 miles in a MR2 and then book a visit to the chiropracter.

 

Sorry but if the car was like that I wouldn’t drive it, I have done 6 hours journeys and never had a problem.

 

>>And I said hammer the MR2 thru the bends, not match. Equal wieght, shorter length, wider stance & 3.0l TT = Buh Bye.

 

Eh? Are you smoking dope? To even get close to the Mr2’s weight you would need to gut the ZX, and start fitting carbon panels! I am sorry but the ZX weighs around 1600kg and the Mr2 weighs 1200kg. Removing the AC and your seats from your ZX would never drop the weight 400kg! That is some serious weigh loss on any car! Even shedding 100kg is no cheap and easy feat on a daily driven road car. So don’t be silly you could never get near the weight of the Mr2 without taking drastic measures.

 

>>Hmm strange whenever I have encountered a MR2 Turbo in my s14a it was pretty well matched up to 80 mph (MR2 getting the jump at the kick off) then I said cheerio right up to 150+ where they bottled out on several occassions,

 

So you’re the bigger man because you can drive past 150mph on public roads? Or are you just a looser? Driving at stupid speeds on the road is a mugs game, clearly I am right about my assumptions about you!

Dont diss the tweed lol

Driving a tweed interior 300 naked is good for the soul I'm told.....

It seems that you are determined to be retarded... :rolleyes:

In fact if anyone wants em, I still have a pair of tweedy seats upstairs at work......... free to a bad home!!!

It seems that you are determined to be retarded... :rolleyes:

 

Theres nowt retarded about tweed you whopper :slap: :nono: :slap: :p

its good for ya :rofl:

Not you asshat! :rofl:

PMSL

 

Yes mate but only cause you know its true

 

It seems that you are determined to be retarded...

 

Tell me about it the mentality of this guy (mr2) is perhaps what I would expect from a 16yr old nova driver who permenantly has a chip on his sholder, perhaps his last car was? or perhaps he bought a dog of an import Turbo MR2 with all his pennies he managed to scrape together, or just maybe he is a 16 year old MR2 wannabie who really doesnt even have one? Probably trying to defend his mum/dads honour who really owns a 2.0GT lmao :xxx:

I think MR2 owners buy them because they cant afford the likes of a Z or the running costs associated lol

 

lol just a touch inaccurate there..........

Listen Mr2, get the fook off here and go back to your own forum, come back when you have somthing constructive to say.

Agreed.

 

Is there an ignore function on this forum? If so I suggest others apply it as well, then he can argue with himself... :rofl:

Would you like to wear my a$$ as a hat??:rofl:

 

dont you start.... I have enough of this kind of request from other forum members........ :rofl: ;)

lol just a touch inaccurate there..........

 

So what was your reason anyway then mate? ehy did you opt for an oversized mx5 instead of the Z :confused:

Wow, I've never seen anyone make up quotes before... :xxx:

Ok what are your ¼ mile times? You claim to have 400bhp/TC and nitrous so what times do you run! Don’t lie you will need proof!

Let's see yours then. Mate.

Wow, I've never seen anyone make up quotes before...

 

lol

its a well know fact that 86.93% of statistics are made up

so said Vic Reeves

Autobahn U twat as I used to live in Germany. Clearly my assumptions about you are correct. You are a presumptuous idiot.

 

Those weight reducing measures would take off 200KG which is enough to reduce your car on minor roads to a minor car in the mirror.

 

Leather wasn't standard on the MR2 either. And it was put togther by the chuckle brothers - rattle rattle.

So what was your reason anyway then mate? ehy did you opt for an oversized mx5 instead of the Z :confused:

 

 

TBH I was just fed up of things constantly going wrong/ bits breaking....

Aside from the small fortune I spent modding it, I spent almost as much replacing non performance stuff..... loom (twice, 1 faulty!!), heatermatrix, starter motor (twice), ringgear, powersteering pump and hoses, etc etc etc etc

 

lol I'd tried to blank this stuff out.

Note that I've never said 300's were $hit - I loved mine when I had it - apart from when it was being a cow, but I'm just as pleased with my MR2 - moreso infact cos (knock on wood) it hasnt put me close to £20 grand in debt (yet), and nothings (knock on wood again) gone tits up yet..............

Ok what are your ¼ mile times? You claim to have 400bhp/TC and nitrous so what times do you run! Don’t lie you will need proof!

 

Nitrous has only just in the past week been fitted (after the complete mare of trying to drill smithies pipes for the foggers, and hide the solonoids from the open eye of the rozzers on a bonnet pop :O!) as you will probably see in the thread in general. Why should I have to prove I have TC etc? it hardly cost that much, or perhaps it does to you, because your paper round doesnt pay that much and so its a life time investment.

 

I don't run the 1/4 mate, never have, don't see the point in it, doesn't make you a man because you do, and I don't need to give a 16yr old wannabie with an attitude anything. Apart from the steam perhaps from my piss in the morning.

 

Perhaps you go on about the quater mile so much because you cant drive anything other than in a straight line? or you think it makes up for your lack of size in the trouser area, do you even drive? I ask you to show you car location and prove it! You got my name location and pictures above so before I even respond to you prove yourself w a n k e r.

Didnt you say A roads before?

or is that what you meant, cos autobahn does begin with "A" I suppositoryise..........
