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?

OI! you cheeky FUKKER!! :slap: I'm allowed to put up the odd post that says 'I don't care'. Now piss off and take your 3mph and 0.4sec difference and poke it sideways up yer sphincter! Jumped up little Supra techno tw@t :slap:

 

Sure you can make comments, but you should also accept the fact that you may get a response. This is what discussions board are about.

 

You dish it out, but yet can't take it. How old are you, five?

 

I don't know what you are talking about with 0.4 differences. Look at the 60-100 and 60-130 mph times. The Supra destroys the ZX at those speeds by whole seconds, and you can bet your alloy wheels that it took more than 20 hp to do that.

Here's the best times I got for the ZX, and it's still well behind.

 

But then again, you conveniently "don't care what is faster" yet you feel obliged to comment in a thread that discusses WHAT IS FASTER.

"Hey everyone, there's a scrap in the playground...."

Well, I tried to be nice. I provided proof with all the statements I made.

 

But it's obvious some of you aren't interested in it, and would rather just stick to name calling and sarcastic condecending.

Sorry, I can't do 'serious' - life's too short.

I have read this whole thread but somewhere along the line it got far too deep and statistical to be interesting.

 

So I thought I'd resort to my usual childish behaviour in a vain effort to lighten the mood :D

 

I shan't bother next time :tongue:

YAWN!!! I still don't give a toss about your Supra stats :xxx: and I'm 6 now by the way! :tongue: :tongue: ....and this discussion got a LOT more interesting! :wack:

The road tests and dynos prove that 11.5 psi makes more power than the rated 320 HP, but every peice of proof I provide, all I get is childish retorts and "oh i dont care anyway." ignorance.

 

You have not come up with any evidence for this, all you have given is graphs that anyone could knock up on a pc.

 

I've had this supra v zed conversation many times now and I feel that I'm wasting by breath.

ok mate,points made the supra is slightly quicker,the supra looks like a bull frog and is fookin hideous,more tunable yes more desirable NO

YAWN!!! I still don't give a toss about your Supra stats :xxx: and I'm 6 now by the way! :tongue: :tongue: ....and this discussion got a LOT more interesting! :wack:

 

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.... ??

FECK OFF PLEASE ....supra stats , speed debates and all the rest, how many of us will meet a different supra at the lights every couple of weeks to test these theory's...............ANSWER: NEVER...........it just doesn't matter, lets enjoy our cars, we spend enough hard earned cash and time on them

I have seen fights like this on the SXOC, I thought we were above this sort of crap.

Do we NEED to get personal???

Hang on guys, we've virtually all agreed that a stock Supra TT is quicker than a stock ZX (certainly in UK spec - the J-spec Soops had 280bhp as well, until the later VVT TT engine). :confused:

 

Also to compare the performance (not BHP) between UK and US spec ZXs is not like for like - the USA spec TT was an SWB only and therefore at least 100kg lighter. (All US spec 2+2 seaters were the N/A).

 

The exaggeration of USA BHP figure comes from their claims for some home grown yank-tanks. There are loads of claims of their V8 mustangs, Trans Ams etc having 400bhp+ but when they are actually dyno'd they make only 200 or so.

 

Let's not forget most recent Japanese cars are "limited" (yeah right - r34 anyone??) to 280bhp ;) In reality Nissan, Toyota etc just quote the BHP at 280 to satisfy the "gentleman's agreement" when the true BHP is often somewhat higher. :slap:

 

Feck, why am I taking this seriously.......... :rofl: ;)

 

Richard :hyper:

 

PS I have to agree with Anh about the Mk3 Supra turbo - a very underated car indeed. I had 2 before my ZX and they were a tough act to follow :bow:

I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:

Standard book time:

300zx TT 0-60 5.6

GTO TT 0-60 5.7

Supra TT 0-60 4.9

Skyline GTR 0-60 R32-4.9

R33-5.2

R34-4.9

 

All to the best of my memory, so correct me if I'm wrong.

who cares there all friggin stupid fast cars, each one has there + and - 's. its down to what you want at the end of the day. i dont compare my car to the mk 4 supra as it wasnt around when mine was built, when it came out it had to be faster of it would not be an icon as it is today. All of the cars listed are icons in there own right, i say more people like the looks of the 3000gt over the zed, you could say that the zed performs better, but is that in a straightline or all over? the supra is faster, yes it is but it had to be, it didnt start production till way after the zed 32. The skyline is stupid fast but isnt it has too many gadgets for my liking and as i like to be in my car, the interior sucks. scoobies and evos will murder me off the lights but not midrange, but then again some of the new diesels can keep with a zed mid range. for its price, its looks, its sound, its interior, its club, its performance be £ for me the zed wind this debate every time. If i had 10 grand i would personally have a 911, but i dont so for 5 grand the zed wins every time.

Does anyone know where Big Roys old sig is? :rofl:

Group hug? Feck... lol

^^^ How true :rofl:

if there is 1 car i dislike in this debate its the skyline, why? well tbh i feel that when the supra came out if it was not for the skyline the zed would have been upped in bhp to compete. the skyline has too many gadgets so its not the drivers car the zed is. the zed is a sportscar the skyline is a boy racered mondeo. not wanting to argue over this as its my opinion and thus it doesnt mean its right.

I did hate the 350z but then i think its not a replacement for the zx, the zx went for outright power as a jap supercar where as a z is a sportscar for the masses.

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.

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.

To steal a line from (I think) Abraham Lincoln: "Freedom of speech doesn't extend to shouting Supra on a ZX Forum".
