What I heard is that Z32's aren't as popular with regards to building the motor as other FI'd Japanese cars of its time (R32 Skylines, Supra MKIVs, etc.) because the engine bay is very tight (V6 vs. inline 6). I heard that's the reason why the Z32TT doesn't have a strong aftermarket support as say, an R32 Gt-r or Supra TT.

I also heard they have problems laying down all that power e.g. wheel hop, losing traction, etc. even if you can pump out some serious hp. In other words, it's hard to get them to go faster than 12 sec 1/4's although the hp and torque mathematically sets it up for 11 sec or faster.

This is just what I heard.
