The Rx7 weighs about 500lbs less and has about 15HP less than the Z and has about 9.6kg less torque than the Z. So of course these are the Japanese specs for the cars. I would say about even with the Z having a little bit of an edge on the Rx7 maybe.

There's a bigger difference in hp here in the States...the RX7 has 255 and thd 300ZX has 300. It's pretty darn even once weight is accounted for. As far as reliability, there's no contest.

Re: Stock Rx7 TT or Stock 300zx TT

actually im pretty sure a 5speed TT RX7 is faster than a 5speed 300TT both stock.....most numbers i have seen for the 300zx 0-60 is in the mid 5s.....the rx7 i have seen at 4.9 and low 5s....i mean they are pretty close but just since the rx7 is so damn light it has a way better advantage. but if i were you i would deffinetly get the 300zx....they're so much better than an rx7...dont get me wrong i like them too but, 300zx all the way man.

Buy the RX-7 if you don't mind replacing a motor every 70K to 80K miles. I owned an RX-7 and that was the main problem with the engines. Stick with an 300TT you will get more enjoyment out of it.

Re: Stock Rx7 TT or Stock 300zx TT

I agree with the general opinion here....
I was in the market for a 93+ Rx-7 or a 93+ 300zxTT. The Rx-7 is a better performer hands down IMO. Quicker times, better handling. But reliability is awful. Check any Rx-7 forum engines have to be replaced often. Can't up the boost safely, you'll blow the engine. The stock turbos get fried from the close-coupled pre-cat (have to immediatly replace with downpipes to prevent damage). The list goes on and on. The Rx-7 is a money pit.
