:350+ RWHP and 500 pounds lighter. The 350Z weighs about 3250 lbs, and the Z32TT weighs 3475 lbs. That's about 225 lbs more. Yes, a supercharged Z33 running enough boost will surely give the Z32 a run for its money. :Even a Z33 with intake and exhaust can hang with a Stage 3 Z32 up to about 100mph. I disagree here. Starting off at 287 hp, intake and exhaust will bump them up to around 300. With 339 hp at my rear wheels, I have more than 400 at the crank. And my torque is much higher, 389 at my rear wheels. I'll pull away quite easily. :Everyone hates on the Z33 (not saying you are, just commenting in general), but the reality is that the cars are awesome, and stock for stock, faster then our Z32s - period. I don't hate the Z33. I happen to like the way they look, the look grew on me. But they're not faster than the Z32TT stock (just look at Genic's vid posted earlier). Tests have shown they're either slightly slower, or just about even, depending on the location and driver. But definitely not faster. Right now, one of the supercharged 350Z's could probably give me more than I can handle. But in stock form or slightly modded, they're not going to have much of a chance. And in all probability, the chances of seeing a SC'ed 350Z are about the same as seeing a highly modded TTZ. The vast majority are owned by people who like driving them, but don't mod them.
