Oh yea definitely. Non-turbo 300ZXs aren't worth anything, show him the pretty exhaust pipes.

Don't mess with the 300ZX TT. He'll eat your lunch.

Well da 300z nonturbo is pretty damn slow... its like a toothless doberman.. mean look, mean growl.. no bite ...

Actually is a gr8 engine .. but its in a sled... very similar to what ours ours but more so the NSX..

3.0-liter DOHC 24-valve V-6 with Nissan(like NSX)
Valve Timing Control System(like VTEC)
Direct ignition system, distributorless with 6 ignition coils(Same as ours).
10.5 : 1 compression ratio (Same as ours).

222 Horsepower @ 6400 rpm (Meow Meow Meow)
198 Ib-ft of Torque @ 4800 rpm ( Moew Woof Meow Woof)

Performance:
Acceleration 0-30 mph: 2.4 seconds
Acceleration 0-60 mph: 6.3 seconds ( with Steve Millen Driving LOL )
Acceleration 0-100 mph: 16.3 seconds
1/4 mile: 15.0 seconds ( Very optimisticarent they)
Top Speed: 155mph ( 8 mile straight stretch of desert... we lose)

These #'s are brand new factory specs... i raced a few w/headers n intake and had them each by 1-3 cars to 80.....

BTW , dey make shit HP on the dyno even in stick (even tho they only got 222HP)
They make decent torque though (dohc) ...

So unless iz heavily modded and da guy knows how to beat on it... you should win... or be neck n neck...

Unless its turbo n your stock... you may get spanked by a driverz dat knows how to pump it:


Stock Dyno
