Can I ask you why you’re fighting this so intently? We’ve given you nothing but facts and you’ve given us nothing but heresay along with, “Jack hasn’t spoken about crack so I guess the crack is whack!” I haven’t posted links to the multiple videos about Drifting 300 because this is just a waste for me, but it really makes me wonder why you, with opening such a can of worms, haven’t gone out to do your research on Youtube. Everyone here seems to have seen a lot of Youtube videos of 300s drifting except you. And not Nimble??? Do I have to repost what Cal Said about their LACK in selection of the 240 and choice in Fairlady applications for these key races? RealityZ33 hasn’t had a hint of aggression in your post, yet you go at him with exactly that??? Talk about “TNC Drama” Whats your problem with the 350Z anyway? It’s not my full cup of tea, but it’s not too far off from the 300 for me. RE-READ his post. He didn’t say the younger crowd doesn’t like “Nice Cars” He said CLEARLY that Younger crowds generally can’t afford $30,000 cars for a drift project. Shit, you said it yourself. Seeing me on the track drifting is like seeing a Viper taking a stab at it. Everyone here can see that you were saying the sheer cost of the Viper is not what you commonly see on the drift track. You’ve ranked the 300 somewhere in line with the Viper. Whether it’s psychological I’m not sure, but you’ll probably read back and you can either 1: Admit to the speculation of others or 2: Continue to act in the same manner where we will just present more facts to you and continue to make you look stupid. Seriously man, before you tell someone to change his car out for an inferior car, I suggest you take a stab at driving both cars on the same terms. Driving a 350, you’d realize that it is a whole new ballgame from the 240. Even just sitting inside one is a big difference. I’m pretty sure RealityZ33 has had opportunities to drive both the 240 and the 300. RealityZ33 has owned a 300ZX TT at one point, which is part of the reason why he feels compelled to point these things out to you. P.S. Who cares about what happened between you and your General Manager? Absolutely no relevance to this conversation P.S.S Nimble is NOT key. Torque is the ruler of curvy tracks. Therefore TORQUE is key. ---

Ivan come on man. stop being so closed minded. Despite what i’ve said before, i still think the s13 is a great car. However, its really difficult to compare the two as they target completely different markets. An example of how narrow your thinking is when you bring up only touge and drift. If you look at circuits, where the history of motorsports lies, you’ll find that the Z is a much more common car than any S-chassis. And actually, the s13 is far from nimble. A stock s13 will roll with the worst of them. A stock 300 (which i’ve driven) feels alot tighter at both front and rear. I drive an almost stock s13 and i can say that my next upgrade will be to reduce the body roll because its just unbearable on the track. Why do you think so many s13 owners run aftermarket sways/endlinks? This is a rather general statement, but i’ve seen a couple 300s on the track they run stock sways and look pretty sturdy in the corners. Of course this is personal experience and not any fact, but you will find that sway bars are a common upgrade on s13s. ---

What you mentioned here I’d have to debate with you on another spectrum here. It is in no way related to “ENGINE TALK” Actually neither is this thread. A talk about two different cars had absolutely nothing to do with the VG30DETT and the KA24DE. I think it was just tossed in here for lack of a better section. ---

Being open-minded will teach you alot; and not just with cars. If i was so obsessed about the 240 i wouldve made friends with all the bitter old me and retarded 15 and 16 year olds of SON. But i’m not, which is why i’m here. Ivan, if you arent talking stock, then what are you comparing. there are no level of mods that can be comparable unless they were designed to be the same, by the same company to increase performance equally on both cars. Truth be told however, that if you spent x amount of money on a 240 and the same x amount of monye on a Z, you’d get more bang for buck on the 240 than the Z. That doesnt make the 240 better than the 300 though. Ivan, lay out how modified the two cars you’re comparing are supposed to be then we’ll talk. ---

Formula D level? Fine, i choose to compare it to the xanavi 300s that competed in JGTC 5 years ago. This is where there is problem with your logic. You have to be able to compare modified cars using a given standard. You cant just say Formula D spec s13 vs whatever i want spec Z. I could pick from a vast selection of Z’s to prove how the s13 would lose out. But that would just be unfair. What we need to lookfor is fair ground for the Z and S chassis to compete. This is why Pat says and i agree, take a Z and an S to a track and just settle it there with lap times. ---

What you mentioned here I’d have to debate with you on another spectrum here. It is in no way related to “ENGINE TALK” > Actually neither is this thread. A talk about two different cars had absolutely nothing to do with the VG30DETT and the KA24DE. I think it was just tossed in here for lack of a better section. ^ I know bro, we did get carried away with this thread moving on to things which have places on other threads to deal with and such. haha, oh & I can see lawyer skills can come quite handy in the real world…😉 there’s no doubt that the 300 is more superior than a 240, just that so much other ideas and topics were played out in here. Anyways, if we ever happen to meet up again out of these forums and we have the need to talk about stuff like this…I’m up for it face to face, lol 🙂 [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-to-nissan-have-some-questions/135278.md?page=3) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-to-nissan-have-some-questions/135278.md?page=5)
