The 1990-1996 300ZX still looks like it could be sold as a new car in 2007. A car that was certainly ahead of it's time.

yeah thats what I thought about rear wheel drive, those are fun cars to drive too, and I also like the 300zx

but I LOVE my mustang!

You should be able to burn him without too much difficulty... even with the SR20-DET they have no torque.

With a 7psi SR, I really wouldn't worry. It's when you meet a 240 with an RB or a 2JZ.. Don't underestimate the weight difference. 2700 is a light car, and I've seen 240's pull off less with I6's under the hood.

They are definatly Rwd, they are supposed to be the best drift car ever made... lol
Ive seen some very fast 240's but im pretty positive the stang will prevail!

Good Luck, Let us know how it goes!
they are impressive cars... I'd consider one for a DD after I get outta college, but knowing me, I cant keep anything stock for long...

I joked with a buddy how if I bought a new VW rabbit, it would be modded within a month...

uhm me and this 240 were dead even. he also had thsoe same engine mods. he has the sr20det swap and it was a early model. All i had was full exhauast and a k/n filter. I see it as not bad because my vert does weigh like 2 tons! lol

A pretty much stock 240sx with SR20DET can do low 14s to high 13s, so it should be a good match, would be an interesting race, depending on the drivers
