Message Don't get me wrong, I love Z32s, they just ain't in the same class.

oh wait... maybe i'm interpreting that the wrong way... LOL!

but seriously though, let's just look at it really simply here and just look at weight:hp ratios. let's say that a typical modded Z makes 396hp (stage 3... most common modded Z out there) and weighs 3500lbs... that would be 8.8lbs per hp. now, in order for a stock Z28 to come close to that figure, it would have to weigh about 3000 lbs... i don't know the weight of a Z28, but i kinda doubt that it's 3000 lbs. keep in mind, this is to have the exact same weight:hp ratio. and then, in order for a stock Z28 to "hand even a modded 3500lb 300zxTT it's ass on a plate", it would have to be even lighter than 3000lbs. sounds kinda unlikely to me... :-)
