2009 Nissan 370z vs 1996 Toyota Supra

I remember in the 90s where 500+HP 300zx turbos were brought up left and right. Can't really do that to our current engines unless you rebuild it. Originally Posted by

The vids where they didn't choose a Lotus Elise in a Touge battle when it completely whips its contenders by 2 seconds? Same videos show fixed battles when comparing to "non-JDM" cars?

Been a while since this thread was updated, but the MKIV is starting to look dated, a bit, to me. Great engine/chassis, but it has seen its day. It's like the old mustang 5.0 back before its time: Awesome car to modify, but there are now better options on the table.

Importconvert your quarter mile time is way off, there is a thread on here with fastests 1/4 miles with I know 1 maybe 2 stock Z's that did 12.9x now I am not saying that is normal but it was done.

I was behind a stock Supra Turbo the other day and they still look really good. It was cool that all the big Japanese companies had premium sports cars back in the 90's. My how things have changed.

Toyota Supra TT now LFA
Nissan 300zx TT now GTR
Mitsubishi 3000GT now nothing (Evo X isn't a premium sports car IMO)
Honda NSX now nothing
Mazda RX-7 now nothing

I have a 94 Supra. I put 200K on it and it still runs strong. I still like the body style better than anything in its price range and it still has the best *** end out there.
