Yeah, with a downpipe, tune and a good driver an STi can be in the 12s all day long. Should be an interesting race anyway!

A stockSTI running high 12's is'nt gonna happen, They run low to mid 13's, and I would think a new edge with a 75 shot and gears has a chance. It won't be an asswhippin' either way. The 300ZX twin turbo is a light two seater and ifthe Z isputting 350 to the ground that Z should be a low to mid 12 second runner consistantly and yes the GT will get owned.
300ZX weights like 3600 pounds. They are extremely heavy for their size.
There were two types made. The 300Zx twin turbo was a shorter car compared to the standard 4 seater 300ZX. I don't know what the exact curb weight is but are you referring to the 4 seater when you stated 3600lbs?
Curb Weight: 3474 lbs.

My bad that is the weight according to Edmunds. Still over 200 pounds more than a New Edge. Not a big difference but it helps[8D]

Curb weight is 3287 lbs......
Um...maybe Edmunds is wrong. Oh well I've always heard they were heavy. Don't really care though[8D]

I'm not an expert on the Mitsu/Subie rally racers, but if the cars are running low 13's stock I would think with minimal mods they would see high 12's.. We all know they can launch great with that AWD, but in a roll race you lose alot of ponies through the AWD drivetrain and they tend to run out of steam in the triple digits.....I had an encounter with a new Evo 8 a few months back on the freeway and it got ugly for him.....yeah I'm sure he was stock , but on a high speed roll they need quite a bit more mods than they would for some short dig runs....IMO
i have heard similar things of the evo at high speed. i met a guy at the track who had an evo 9 with an MBC, turbo back exhaust, and good tires, who was running 12.20s...

One of my friends had a non-turbo 300zx and it weighed 3540(cant remember exact, but mid 3500's) That was with gas, without driver.
