But I also have to ask of him (as I ask of ALL of the biased import fanboyz/defenders on here);
Do you go back onto your import forums and "educate and correct" all of the dumb riceboyzz spewing their incorrect/biased info about domestic nameplates???!!!
Actually, yeah. A dumbass on 300zxclub.com claimed to have beaten an LS1 in his NA 300zx. I called BS because it was more than obvious. They don't spew much BS on that sight (and they ussually get booted if they do). Not even I go near NICO club, those kids are douche bags half the time. LOL. I actually used to own a 99 Z28 and I can tell you that the LS1 was def. quicker stock. I might sell my Z32 300zx, I don't hold onto cars very long.

I love American muscle and Imports. I'm not biased against just about any car (except for FWD, I HATE FWD). Honestly though, if I ever buy another F-body it's going to be a first or second gen. 1969 Camaro Z28

^^ Oh, you mean Big Red right?
That thing is a fricking tube chassis car. 900~whp? Plus I believe it topped at 220~mph.
Yeah, that thing is rediculous. But I was actually looking at a pretty sweet 1970 Firebird(budget). I also sort of admire Motion's work. Those Camaros are pure sex...

BTW, just to be a dick, JUN made a 1200hp 300zx that hit 260mph at bonneville.
But I'd rather have a first gen camaro over my Z32 300zx. The Z was just in my budget at the time.
As for the Supra or Camaro, I'd rather have both. Can't turn down either.

Money is tight though, so I think I'll sell the Z and use that money to build up a second gen and my SC300 DD (single gt35r).

The Z32 300zx is a timeless car and the vg30dett powerplant was so potent it was banned from the GTS-1 class. Look at what GM offered between 1989 and 1995 and then re-evaluate your statement there. Try not to be so close-minded, of course you beat a car on your 10 sec. bike, Jesus.

Not from my experience. I owned a bolton 1990 300ZX TT from 1998-2002. It was not that fast. I can guarantee you that my 92 Vette, 97 Cobra & 97 Z28 would have beat it soundly when they were stock..

A couple of M6 LT1 F-bodies beat me pretty good on the highway. I got beat from a roll by a bone stock 01 Mustang GT M5 (still had the dealer tags on it) up to 120. He had me by half a car. That was the straw that broke the camels back for me getting rid of it. They just were not that fast. Can't count the number of modded Foxes that waxed that car.


Don't get me wrong though. I LOVED the car and regret selling it to this day. Handled better than anything I have ever owned. The interior was to die for. Brilliantly designed! I would love to have another one.

^ Boltons, What do you consider boltons?
That's all I have and I'm pushing 360 to the wheels @ 14psi. Boltons don't do squat for a 300zx unless you up the boost. Stock boost is 9psi, the stock injectors and turbos can handle 15psi. BTW, the quickest a bone stock 300zx ran was a 13.8

This thread is dead though, so...

HKS Intake, !Cats, HKS catback & a tune. The cars I raced above (with the exception of the Foxes) were near stock or bone stock I never claimed I was all out. The car was beautiful and like I said I would love to have another one. But it was heavy as sin. At 3550 lbs as I recall. It was a great car, just not very fast. And your right, this thread is dead so
