So your trying to say a 'Track Tuned Suspension' is going to be better than the 'Stock' Z Suspension... Isn't that kind of a duh?

And even still are you trying to say the Coupe would 'own' the Z in that race, or would you consider it being a 'Close' race? Cause if it would be a close race, then saying the coupe has a track tuned suspension wouldn't be that big of a deal?

i am saying the $31,500 3.8 Track Gen Coupe with all the luxarys (leather and all that crap) has better brakes and suspension then the $40,000 370z Touring with SPORT package.

What is the size of the rotors for the Brembo's?

And why would you be racing with the Touring edition, leather and all that fancy crap is useless if your making it a Track car? I mean, at least IMHO.

we are comparing car to car. the gen coupe 3.8 track model comes with leather and all that. so the apples to apples comparison is the 370z touring sport. same equipped car.

as for your first question.

from the site:

* 19-inch Euroflange gunmetal finish alloy wheels with staggered high-performance summer-compound Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tires (P225/40YR19 front, P245/40YR19 rear)
* Unique Brembo braking system with 13.4-inch ventilated front rotors, 42mm four-piston fixed front calipers (red), 13.0-inch ventilated rear rotors, 32mm+28mm four-piston fixed rear calipers (red)
* Unique track-tuned suspension, higher-rate coil springs, higher-control shock absorbers, 25mm front stabilizer bar, 22mm rear stabilizer bar, strut brace
* Torsen-type limited-slip differential

Based on...? Source...? Because they named it "track edition"?

Let's name our Z's "super track edition" from now on.

But wait, OP will come up with "super duper track edition".

It's never going to end.....
