They are lighter and much more of a pure sports car rather than a "boulevard (sp?) crusier" like a 280, or, horror of horrors, a 280zx.
 
Well I wouldn't say the king of "all Z's" because the Z32 has great styling and power, and I think most people would perfer it over a 240, but the 240 could be considered king of old school Z's
 
1991 300ZX 2+2
222 horsepower
190 torque(ugh!)
1990 Mustang 5.slow
229 horsepower
300 torque(???)

Some may ask...."How???" I tell you, it is all about the lauch, power to weight ratio, and driver. He didn't misshift or anything, but you could tell he wasn't too great at shifting. Still, I had him by about 2 car lengths by 60mph, and i didn't go past 70....it was already over.

I am not 100% shure about the stats on the stang btw.
 
Sign me up Supra :).

My old man has a '90 TT Z32 manual.

BTW does anyone know where I can get some reliable, sensible stats for the Z32?

Thanks 300 :) 👍
Although, still on there it gives 0-60 times for the 300ZX tt ranging from 7.0seconds to 5.5seconds. That's a big differance. :irked:
 
Koolies 👍. Yea I think my old mans one is a bit quicker than 5.5, he's had a sports exhaust fitted and the turbos fiddled with and some special boost thingy fitted to it.. I should really find out what, precisely. The boost gauge, goes past teh stock maximum pressure mark so...........
 
that is a very nice Z 👍 my Z is under-construction right now lol. I visited the body shop today to see how things were coming along and i about cryed. The car is 1/2 covered in primer and the whole back bumper is (was) off. oh well its going to look perfect in 2 days so its all good.
