Whats the fastest. A 300zx? A GTO or a Supra twin turbo. Or the top skyline. Also why do you guys think the 300zx is better than supras, GTO's ect ect. I really just prefer the look of the Z myself. It really does look powerful, where as a supra looks cheep looking and the GTO well Im just not keen on that. And skylines and Evo's and scoobies simply look like famliy cars gone. So come on explain to me why the 300zx is the best out of the big jab supercars?

Just kidding!

The skyline gets its reputation for driving itself due to the intelligent 4wd system, but it really doesn't, just look at any of the skyline club sites for proof, I've heard the R34 GTR is over assisted, but my R32 GTR is as much 'fun' to drive as a rear wheel drive car, only it gives better traction off the line . I know what you mean about the interior, but it goes back to the eighties styling wise, so loads of plastice is to be expected! :(

 

I'm not arguing about it, just pointing out my experience, I still really like the zx and one day I will have one! :D

 

Good point about comparing different cars fron different years though.

You may not care about what a Supra does, but you certainly do care about the 300zx and where it ranks up performance wise.

 

You acting like a clown does little to divert yourself from being in the wrong. It's pretty much like a kid trying to make his bullies laugh so they won't beat up on him.... ??

You ain't from round these parts eh pardner!

 

Go get a life and a sense of humour! :xxx: :slap:

If I went on another forum and started quoting this and that, and trying to be a general know-it-all, purlley (spelling?) from beleiving everything I was told is correct, just because it's on the internet, then I'd expect the same reaction.

I'll tell you what, I'll copy a picture of a dyno run sheet, and then play with it in PhotoShop, and post it on the net, would you beleive it? I know I wouldn't, but then it's down to trust! So unless I actually see somthing then how do I know it is genuine?

 

As the saying goes "A little knowledge is dangerous!"

And "Assumption is the mother of all f**k ups"

And "To ASSUME, makes an ASS of yoU and ME"

:rofl: :rofl: That's a funny few minutes wasted reading back over it. And the correct, undisputed fact has been posted on this thread 4 TIMES ALREADY hahaha.

 

The answer to the question of Zeds, the Supra and everything is 42. Sorry 419.84km/h or 260.88mph - the Z32 is faster - but all the good guys knew that already. :D :D

Why do you feel the need to be so offensive?.

Have you driven a Skyline? All the stories about these cars driving themselves because of all the gadgets is bullocks! They get tail happy like any other car, the 4WD system on the GTR doesn`t work the way you would expect it to in a sharp corner. I have owned and driven both, if you want an addrenalin rush buy a 300, the Skyline needs to be pushed much harder to get a buzz because of the safety features incorporated in the electronics.

As to the original question which is the fastest, where are you racing? round the lanes a scooby or evo will leave a 300 or a Skyline due to size and gearing, on a straight the 300, Supra and Skyline would all depend on the day and driver.

Drove an R33 GT-R a few years ago, but didnt like it, as i said its just my opinion, not doubting these cars great. The races where in s straight line but have beat a scooby round a wet roundabout, which really suprised me, put this down to the driver of the scooby being shite.

I replied with a comment that all this 'corrected this and that' and Supras vs Z'd vs GTO's thing had been said before and was a bit irrelevant and boring and he turned it personal. I thought it was quite fun! ;) :p :rofl:

Is anything interesting happening Yet.

 

Or shall I post a new poll.

 

Which smells loudest.

 

Cat, Dog, Pig or Bull sh1t.

 

Jeezue. Now you know why Big Roy and Tattooman frequent this forum. Because Supra and Skyline forums have a disproportion of knobheads on them.

Fair enough :)

Ahn why are you here????

I dont understand this sort of thing. I never feel the urge to go to other car forums and start quoting this figure and that figure, that sort of chat is for McDonalds car park. I really dont care what other cars do, people here own Z's because they choose to. If I wanted a Supra I would buy one ...simple.

 

What is the title to this thread again?

The joke is on someone who drove on the M25 knowing that his wheels were held on with just 3 studs, putting himself and other drivers in danger. Said person broke down not too long after.

 

Stop trying to be funny, David Brent.

The dynos were hosted on 4 separate domains/websites. One of the dynos were performed by an aftermarket company.

 

It's interesting you talk about assumptions when it is you who assumes all 4 dynos are fakes/photoshop jobs whatever.

 

Owning and driving a 300zx and Supra isn't a previlege or a educational pre-requisite. But having experience working and tuning engines IS.

What is the title to this thread again?

 

Whats that got to do with it?

Why are you here in the first place?

Stop being a dull ass boring w@nker then an piss off. :slap: What are you PLOD or just a typing spreadsheet :xxx:

 

Jeez, I bet even your parents wish that on that fateful night when you were concieved that your dad had pulled out and spunked over the curtains. :rofl:

Am I the only one finding this all a bit boring?

Discussing the 300 zx and the Supra.

 

I'll give you time to figure out why.

 

:rolleyes:

Here's a magazine article that has dynoed the Supra along side the Dodge Viper, Mazda RX-7 and a few other performance cars.

 

http://www.mkiv.com/publications/motor_trend/8_93/mt893_11.jpg

 

That's all the proof you guys need. The US spec ecu is more aggressive than the UK models. With the combination of high RON fuel and the leaner A/F and more timing advance, that is the key to them making more power. No "American" exageration or manipulated figures about it.

 

So with 11.5 psi boost the Supra is pushing out well over 350 hp at the flywheel, and 300 hp at the rear wheels. On the other hand, the 300 zx with 9 psi will manage 255 hp at the rear wheels (300 hp at the fly) with stock fueling and ignition curves.

 

I hope some of you have bothered to read the high speed acceleration stats between the 2 cars. There is a massive difference. I'm here to discuss what car I prefer, what car is better. All I am doing is pointing out the difference in performance, which IS the point of this thread.

 

As for joking around, isn't there a muppet room for that??

you still here Anh?....i've been the the high courts a few times you'd make a good silk....anyways is someone gonna lock this thread or...?

"I'm here to discuss what car I prefer, what car is better"

Correction to that, I mean't "I'm NOT here to discuss" :)

Why does the thread need locking? Aren't I'm being relevant to the title of the thread?

 

I was asked to provide proof after proof about the Supra's horsepower and acceleration, and I have.

 

If that is offending, then I apologise. :cool:

So back to my earlier post.....that you dismissed...

 

"wether or not US spec Supra's put out 360 at the fly or not is of no concern, as we only get Uk and Jap spec here and that is what we are comparing. "

Why does the thread need locking?

 

If that is offending, then I apologise. :cool:

 

locking!...cos you've had you free...now its £20 to play...:D

no apology required with me...maybe to others but who can say if they'd accept?
