For Those Who Upgraded From a 350Z

SiXK

So very different its hard to compare specifics.

The 300ZXTT is faster and lower and wider, and that gives it a totally unique feel compared to other Z's I have owned (82,86,05,09). The turbos give it a different performance feel altogether, and my 300ZXTT is modded so the performance difference is substantial.

But thats not to rag on the 370Z at all. I love it. Far and away better than the 350Z.

The differences of the two cars (300ZXTT & 370Z) are what makes this the best combination of Z's I have owned. You won't feel like you are driving the same car when you switch to the other.

To me its a good setup to have the 300ZXTT as a weekend car and the 370Z as a daily driver that you never get tired of driving.

wait whut? I hope you're not comparing a modded ZX to a stock Z34, because thats the most wrong statement i've seen here in months.

It is wider than the 370z.
It weights less.
Shorter wheel base
A bit lower.

Basically the same HP/Torque numbers as the 370z, I believe HP is slightly less (10-15) which is made up in loss of weight. The 350z v. 300ZX (both stock) went to the 300ZX, the 370z is actually the probably a bit faster but still a tough race.

my comment was about the 300ZX being faster, no model of the ZX was faster from 0-60 or 1/4 mile, i think there was a thread about this awhile back.

They are very close to each other, again the tip of the hat goes to the 370z but not by much. I never said the 370z would lose, I was just providing facts that the 300ZX is a strong competitor even today, do not under estimate them.

From what i've read, and from a few co workers stories that own them, the engine pops at 400whp. And from what i've seen of the ones in my Z club, i'm not too worried

The poster asked how did the 370Z compare to the 300ZXTT. I assumed he was talking about the two cars I own, not an in-general comparison of the cars as they rolled off the assembly lines.

I didn't own my 370Z 12 years ago when my 300ZXTT was stock, so hell, I don't know how stock vs stock would go. I imagine it would be close but the 370Z would probably win.

My 300ZXTT (with no body kit and a properly installed Borla exhaust - I agree with chuckd05 on that stuff) is lower and faster and wider than my 370Z.

I went on to say that my 300ZXTT was modded so I figured most folks would take that into consideration when my post was read.

Bottom line to me is they are both fun cars (and the 370Z is a big improvement over the 350Z).

One other thing... the vg30dett is capable of more then 400whp.
