I was only trying to point out that "wimpy" was not an accurate way of describing the 350Z.

Those 1/4 times for that Z33 are from the lower powered '03 model.
It's the snobby* 350Z drivers that deserve the title, not the car itself.
(It should be noted that this label does not apply to all Z33 drivers, but rather to the ones that have earned this title.)

And come on, rating Z's is like putting your kids in order of which you like most...it aint right

nobody called the S30 wimpy. Nobody called the S130 wimpy. And nobody called the Z31 wimpy. Now in actual performance where does the Z33 rank with those cars? That is my point. How does the second quickest factory Z of all time qualify as wimpy? Theres no arguing that the Z32 TT sits atop the performance totem pole in the Z world. It's a super car in a family of sport and GT cars. Of course as it sits, it wouldn't take much for an improved factory Z33 (or the next generation Z) to have the potential to knock the Z32 out of that spot in the future.

S130, S30, Z31, Z32, Z33, there is list of best to last.(my taste)
Or...280zx, 240-280z, 300zx, 300zx z32, 350z
And the problem with the 350z's, is not just the owners, but the fact they look like other cars on the road. Like the Infiniti, almost the same, it is just more luxurious. I have seen both the 350z, and the Infiniti, up close. Almost the same in body style. And the track times, still don't mean squat to me. I know the 280zx, is not the fastest car out there. But it is more than what you can beat. The looks blow most cars away, and there is just something about the 280zx. That I love, and always have, and it is hard to put in words.

Performance wise I'll rate my top 5:
1. Z32 TT
2. Z33
3. Z32 (non-turbo)
4. Z31 turbo
5. S130 turbo
Looks wise I'll rate them as so:
79-81 S130 slicktop 2 seater
70-74 S30
Z32 (first the later models, then the earlier models. inc. 2+2)
S130 (the rest of the 2 seaters)
late Z31 (2 seater)
early Z31 (2 seater)
75+ S30 (2 seater)
All remaining 2+2's.
All the above is based on factory stock vehicles.

I am really partial to my baby. But I do love the lines on the oldy but goodies.
And are we talking wheels or flywheel hp up there? Flywheel would make emo correct with 415 TOPS. (But that would still beat a Z33 anyday of the week)
<----Stage 8 or something

As you can read in my thread above...I'm talking flywheel....at the wheels, a stg III is going to be WAY under 415hp! That's where power transfer differs so much. A 450hp+ StgIII TT would be amazing! I wish I could spend $2K and have a 450+rwhp TT! That would be amazing! I have upgraded fuel, turbos, etc etc and I don't think I'm at 450rwhp!
