Man, Chevy is doing something right. Its blasphemy, but i bet the "lowly" V6 will spank a NISMO around a track.

It'll be an interesting shootout. Both have the same acceleration times. A Nismo has about 1.01g of lateral acceleration. The v6 without the setup gets about .94g. That's a base Nismo.
They both weigh about the same, sadly enough. I think it'll be a drivers race for sure... The Z even though older and lagging in tech... I'm pretty sure will still be the superior drivers car, even if it loses on the road course?

My money is on the V6 1LE vs. a NISMO. Having owned a NISMO and a 5gen 1LE v8, I have faith chevy did it right.

Now you done gone & made me laugh; no other N/A v6 will compete with the VQ37VHR,,,I love chevy's too/ but you been smoking some bad weed.
Not sure if you're talking roadcourse racing,drag or what ever: not gonna happen.
If you gonna buy one: better get the V8 8sp.
& when you run across the right modded Z, you gonna get your feelings hurt.
That be a Fact!

I'm going to bet on the V6 1LE too. Considering they said its faster than the previous gen SS. I think it will be close, but I'd bet on it winning.

I'm not sure if you meant modded Z vs the V6 or V8. If you meant a modded Z will beat the 6th gen V8 1LE, you're absolutely bat **** insane. No Z short of a super/turbo charged Z will even get close to the V8 1LE.

If you're talking a modded Z vs the V6 1LE, I guess yea it would win. But that is a silly comparison in my opinion.

I love the Z too, but I'm willing to understand that its a 7-8 year old car. Its incredibly dated. The Alpha platform Camaros are no joke, especially the V8.

N/A 370Z vs 2016 V8 Camaro....look up Hennessy 2016 0-170 camaro,
gets to 158 in 30sec./ while my bone stock 11' A/T Base Touring gets there in 34sec.
i got video & i got a few bolt on mods otw....I Like the Chevy's Too-but the 370 will compete with the V-8 in N/A form.....adding TT & Camaro can sit down.
