As for power usage... I'm at 440rwhp on my camaro and j have loads of fun on the streets as I did with my Z. I believe both Z and camaro have a lot more in common than people think. And one of those things is amazing gearing. Both cars have been geared for both low speed and high speed fun. I feel they both have a special duality to them despite having a lot of power for what they both are.

The 86 is ok. It's a good little romping car. But I dont think it deserves all the hoop lah its had for years. It's funny some ways but it's mostly a gutless car. I guess j like cars with power...
Wait until the Supra comes out... the boy racers are gonna get in line until they find out its a $60,000 slug.

Huh? A slug? I think the supra will be the car to beat. I'm almost sure of it.

$60,000 for 330 horse (taken at the crank) and 155 top end is a slug.

And I won’t even mention how ugly it is...

I guess you haven't seen the dyno tunes on the stock engine... it's under rated by 50hp on average. It beat the Z4 in a drag race pretty badly.

A slug beating a slower slug isn’t swaying me. My $30,000 Z will smoke both of them.

Hope you're modded cuz.... the fastest 60 time recorded on the supra is 3.8. The fastest 0-60 on a Z was 4.5seconds... the quarter for s Z is 13.1 seconds IF U DRIVE AUTO? 13.3 for manual. Its 12 seconds on a supra. I wouldn't be racing for pink's if I was you there buddy. Its great to love and prefer your car. Its another to have delusions of grandeur. Lol.

And lastly. Supra has the modding advantage. It's designed with the plumbing for easy turbo upgrades and such. The car was designed to be easily modded. In this generation of lackluster cars. The supra is a gift.

Your $30k Z would get stomped into the ground. Don't look at the horsepower. Look at the torque.

They dynoed 421lbs tq. That's nuts. I think a Z dynoed at around 258lbs on a stock motor. You need to put an 86 motor on top of the VQ to be in the same torque family as a supra

That true, didn’t look at the torque. Still not interested in a $60,000 rolling turd. How about if I put $30,000 into my $30,000 Z to make it a fair fight?
