As an owner of a 1990 Black 300ZX (STAGE III+ NA 2+2)with under 45k orig. miles, and a newer owner of a 1998 Silver Toyota Supra Twin-Turbo, with under 6,000k orig. miles on it "thats right"! I visit both forums often. Now is it me, or are these Supra guys cocky, and claim they beat everything under the sun, thats not a Supra!! They seem never to lose a street light race!!and they seem to always put down Z'ers...WTF...Especially NA's..Calling them useless!! What bullsh*t!! Lets remember Supra and Z owners-- they are both great cars, and both are challengers to the dark side: (Cameros, Mustangs, Firebirds, and Vettes)and we all know whats in the minds of these rare car drivers minds!!! Another fact that most people have forgot throughout the years is that the 1990 300zx set the standard for all other sports cars of its time: (including, yes even the Supra!!!)and remember ZTT'ers the NA came before the ZTT, and its still a Z, so give some respect(which I don't see alot here anymore) And all this bulls*it about NA's being Slooow.. Well lets think about what was out on the streets in 1990...A Camero Z28 with 210hp!! or even a Supra Turbo with 230hp, and heavy as hell, with a body style thats been around since 1986!!NA Z's were beating them at the time, and certainly turning more heads (they stiil do--11 years later).And (ZTT's were killing everything out there til' 1993) Now this is where the Supra TT comes in, as a owner I have great respect for this car, I think of it as an exotic almost. Radical looks, Awesome performance and handling. On some points, its taken the Z and excelled upon it. As far as looks are concerned, between the two its a debate in itself!! Its a Awesome Sports car, its come a long way from the 86.5 to 92 generation!! My wife says the Supra is ugly, and perfers the looks of the Z. I tell her not to judge, and respect its charateristics in itself, its a different beast I tell her, but she still keeps the same narrow minded ideals!! No matter what!!Like us sometimes!! Supra owners (which includes me too)say are cars are faster and better, well lets see, the Z was on the streets in Japan in 1989, before it came to the states in 1990. With that being said, ofcourse they should be a bit better, Toyota had to improve upon what Nissan already had out on the market--Once again the Z set the standard back then!! The point I'm trying to make guys, is that I'm tired of hearing Supra and Z owners putting each other down, and showing no respect for each others cars, no matter if its a TT or a NA, were all on the same side. In owning both cars I feel stuck in the middle, I love both of my cars, for differnt reasons, and have respect for both.
So lets quit this Sh*t, and think about these aspects I mentioned before we put down each others rides, its about respect!! And in my book the one with the most class and sportsmanship always wins!!! And just think we all could be driving 6 cylinder Mustangs!!!! "oh thank God for Z's and Supras, and others of the like"!!!! Sorry,Thanks for letting me vent!!!!!!
