Good job. I bet that felt really good.

Given the huge hp advantage, I would expect it to start creeping up and passing you at high speeds.

The 350Z vert weighs 3,600 lbs dry! Nissan must be using cast iron body panels.

Well having owned both I can tell you that these cars are very similar but if they were the same weight then the 350z would win all day long.

I like having more torque now and if I can recall correctly my 350z can get to 155mph faster than my S2000 ever did. So if it was a race upto top speed then the 350z is faster. Quartermile they are similar, depending on driver and conditions. In the twisties, well thats also up for debate. Funny thing is my 350z still feels faster than my NSX. So what does that tell you?

I like to look at the dyno numbers too..

199hp 131tq (4 cylinder)
Weight 2813 lbs

Integra Type R

175hp 125tq

350z

240hp 220tq (6)

Weight 3180 lbs- 3300lbs

NSX

240hp 210tq (6) NA1

255hp 214tq (6) NA2

Weight 3200 lbs
