0-60 and 1/4 would be very close. Track I think the Z might have a slight advantage with the shorter braking distance and better grip.

Umm, having built an 08 STI and owning a 370z. (and coming from an 04 and 06 STI) I can tell you that the Z is better.

0-60 is the same.
Quarter, the Z will win.
Track - Would be close, but I think the Z might edge the STI because it is more nimble and doesnt have the understeer that the STI has.

However, versus an 07 STI...then its about the same.

Really? 07 would be the same? In what track? I wouldve never thought...

I thought the 09 was better than the 07.....

And, is there any difference between the 08 and 09?

The reason i asked in the first place was because a co-worker got a 09 sti right after i got my 370 and I wanted to see if i could beat him.

The 07's had better gearing and were overall better than the bulky 08+
You should be able to beat him from a roll..until he goes stage 2, then you will have to upgrade too if you want to keep up.

Cool, thanks for the info. Im not too worried about beating him, I was just curious. Even if the STI is faster I still prefer the 370z. The sti feels really cheap inside and its still 4 cyl after all. I loved the 350 at the track i cant imagine what this thing is going to be like.

On another note... I just got my car back from the dealer after my first oil change at 1190 miles, and they overfilled it. God damn they cant do anything right. This young dude drove it up, it seemed he was the one who did the change (Lube bitch, I guess...). The only reason I didnt do it myself was because the place were I do it myself is closed on mondays, but I will probably change oil again this weekend since a dealership cant even do a proper oil change. Damn it!

race him and find out and let us know how you did.
Let's not forget the evo. Now that might beat the 370z.

Roger that! But no one cares about the evo... j/k a co-workers husband has one (X) but I doubt he'll be interested. Besides i dont really care about street racing, but Ill go against the 09 sti to see how we do.

First post! :-)

It all depends on the STIs mods. Stock vs stock is a drivers race, but I'm talking about last-gen STIs. The '08-'09 version is considerably slower. Same thing goes for the Evo X.
