(Noob... to TT.Net..)
Some Z16A (3000GT/Stealth) info...
It was never produced. The Jackie Chan drove the HSX concept car in City Hunter. Plus, the car was heavy enough without the necessary chassis reinforcement. The Spyder is almost 400 lbs heavier, and the curb weight on my door sticker is 3910LBS. (That's without a driver, BTW). The Spyder was only produced for two years (1995,1996). There were more Spyder's produced than 99 3000GT's, and even fewer yet, were the 96 Dodge Stealth's production numbers, at a whopping 57.
In Japan, the mid 90's offered a trim level that we never saw here. The MR, had shorter gearing (Center/front/rear differential ratio), which made it snag a 12.6 @ 107mph, right out of the box (we trap far lower than you RWD folk).

Production stopped for a good reason though... it was an attempt at a sports car by a company that regularly competes in Rally competitions. Plus the MSRP on the 99's was 67,000USD. Not a bad drive, but it's far from what I would call a sports car. - That's why I'm here now.
Anyone selling a nearly stock Twin Turbo Z32? :D

Wishing I drove a Nissan....
