Sorry if this is the wrong forum, or if I shouldn't have done this in the first place, but it couldn't hurt to ask.

I am a Northern Virginia 3000gt owner that came VERY close to buying an s2000 in december when i totalled my talon tsi awd. I even created this user account here and did alot of research. Instead, I ended up buying a new engine for my crippled 3000gt.

I am very curious to see how I compare to an s2000 in stock or near-stock form. This is not a VR4 by the way, just a base. Anybody interested in a friendly run??

 

not to be evil.......... you have no chance....... weighs more. like 32xx has less power traveling through a 5spd fwd... if your from the area and have seen a black on sprayed black wheels sl... ask him ive slayed him a few times.. i never see any vr4's around here, and the one i have seen was a redneckish woman who looked like she really wanted a camaro.... j/k

 

I stuck pretty close to the back bumper of my buddy's Stealth R/T...I don't think it's worth your time in a base model.

 

i beg to differ about not having a chance.

i trapped 97 at MIR in march, before i put on my full exhaust. I put 210hp to the wheels in stock form after having my remanufactured engine put in. The highest output from ANY NA 3000gt/stealth before that was 195 with every bolt-on. The JDM engine i got was a freak engine that was probably bored/god knows what (I'm no engine expert).

basically, im not your average fwd 3000gt. I know cars well enough to know when I will have no chance, and you would not see me on this board asking this question if I couldn't contend.

dont count me out.

 

ok.. 210 to the wheels..... 200 to the wheels minus a few hundred pouns plus a short ratio 6spd

 

I will give you a run, as long as there are some corners involved

My car is mostly stock

 

 

LOL thats just what i need to be whipping around corners in my bright red car.

I have too many tickets already and am only 18. NO THANKS.

I was more looking for a roll race from around 40 - 120. I will be the first to admit Ill lose badly from a dig.

 

Seeing how the base model 3kgt (ragtop never stated which NA model he has) has the same motor as the R/T, the outcome wouldn't be much different.
