For reference a well running & driven 300ZX TT is capable of a low 5 second 0-60 and mid-high 13s in the 1/4 mile. Stock TT Zs should trap around 103-105MPH.
You can believe what you like but fact are facts. The 300zxTT is good for 13.9 in the 1/4 wile the 03-06 350z is good for the same. Yes in both cases there are people who have seen or heard of slightly faster but on average 13.9 seems to be what both cars run. That means it comes down to the driver. The HR Z has more than a slight edge. Most HR's are running 13.5-13.7 with skilled drivers going as low as 13.1. The 370z is no contest considering most times posted for it are sub 13.5.

Trust me, I love the 300zxTT. I used to be obsessed with it back in the day. I've been around Z's long enough to remember when people would debate if a Z31 turbo was faster than a Z32 N/A. Then as the years went on the debate progressed to the Z32TT vs. the 350z. This happens everytime there is a new model. The 300zxTT is a great car but in todays world it comes up short. I single video doesn't prove anything, look at the overall data.
