Sorry, I should elaborate. Sure 2 secs can be gained with some serious tires like the Cup 2, etc. They were saying comparable tires to the Supra. E.g. Pilot Sports.

Someone from the other forum reckons new tires would close the gap by 2seconds. The blind faith is amazing at this point, a lot of Z friends have now moved on to that the Nismo will come with 100+ extra hp, the 6 pot GTR brakes, aero, suspension, and probably bad tires still.

From the Z forum... So if you can't win any objective tests, just come up with your own subjective criteria. I'll bet that guy probably holds several 1/4 mile records for fastest Z with a stock pcv system and heated seats or some other asinine criteria that excludes everyone faster. He also...

As others have said go with what you like. If you like the looks of the Z better go with it. The Z isn't faster or a whole ton cheaper when compared to a Supra. But you know what it is? Close enough that if you're willing to spend more you could beat a Supra with less mods. Is the new Z a...

Adjust your mirrors properly and blind spots aren't an issue in the car. Your side mirrors should be a few degrees past the body lines. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a15131074/how-to-adjust-your-mirrors-to-avoid-blind-spots/

I know what you mean, but there are so many variables to that whole thing, which apples are we talking about? Are we talking about someone who is shopping only on price and has a budget of around 40k? Or are we talking about someone who only wants an auto or manual? That chart would have to...

I'd still rather have the 91 Syclone

And the auto vs auto has been done already. Still slower.

It must be the tires. But as mentioned by others the displacement is the same 3L. So it's not a 3L vs 3.5L. Secondly how they get to 3L is vastly different, two motors can both have 3L but get to that displacement with a very different bore and stroke. Vr30 bore x stroke: 86mm x 86mm so...

Mine took about four months, put a deposit in May and got the turbo in September.

Had a twin turbo 370Z, and yeah one or two laps at full power would be quite warm. To the new Z's credit, love it or hate it that giant front opening should aid in cooling quite a bit.

He also commented that a non curb smasher spun one just turning onto the track.... There's lively and neutral handling with a lot of hp and then there's less than ideal setup and bad nannies. This sounds like more of the latter. With all the nannies on the Supra behaves quite well, especially...

Definitely, but it is just such a haphazard approach to it all. A full everything disabled track mode just seems like such an oversight for such an 'enthusiast's car'. If anything is hilarious it is the reactions that people think the press cars would be hampered in any way. The 370Z press...

A lot of these most likely can be tuned out or fixed with after market parts.

Nice read but it was a bit romanticized and the whole if you care about numbers you're not an enthusiast bs. If you're going to the track, then I'd argue you care a whole lot about the numbers. Then trying to paint it over like car manufacturer's are putting their hearts and souls into these...

Pretty sure it makes the wait worse. It's the thought that counts I guess.

Inspired by my corolla

Same old tired argument. Using the performance of the top model with the price of the base. Then using the price of the top Supra. If you're going by msrp and you want to compare performance vs price. Then you can use a base 3.0 at 53 vs the performance Z at 51. So for a similar performance...
