Who would win out of these cars ON THE TRACK equal drivers

I'm curious what you guys think.

Equal drivers. On the track...any track.

ALL CARS STOCK.

1990s Supra Turbo

1990s RX7 Turbo

1990s Twin Turbo 300ZX

1990s 3000GT VR4

and of course

06 Evolution MR

...now, same question but with all of these cars maxed out mod wise.

Why you comparing 1990's outdated cars to an 06 evo? How about all 90's cars?

maxed out on what?...stock engine, stock drive train,stock turbo...you know moding is limited to your budget essentially. Any of these cars could be made to be a racers dream. Maxed out is a very loose term.


I would think the IX would win the stock comparison though.

Evo followed by the RX7 then the 300ZX. The Supra and 3000 are fat pigs on a road course.

You should have posted this in the other car forum But all the cars you mention have their good and bad qualities. It depends on the type of track or road course. A road course with tighter turns awould favor the EVO and RX-7, a road course with long straights would favor the Supra. The 300ZX and VR4 are just ok in my opinion. Don't me wrong I think the VR4 was a very nice car and I owned two of them, but I realize weight would hold it back in comparison to these cars on a proper road course. As far as the 300ZX TT, never really been impressed with 300ZX sorry.

+1

The 3000GT, Supra, and 300ZX are like over 3500lbs cars. I used to own an 89 Turbo Supra and the driver seat weighs like 200lbs. I'm not kidding you. The seat are fully motorized with the sides being able to move in or out to give you comfort. Maybe I'm exagerating the weight a little bit, but I swear that seat was atlease 150lbs.

Evo doesn't belong in this comparison. I'd give it to the RX7 actually. Fully modded, probably RX7 or Supra.

Depends on the track. If the track contained lots of low speed turns, the Evo's AWD grip would devastate. If the track has lots of long winding sweepers, the RX-7 could possibly win, since it is less prone to understeer.

straight line (from dig + roll) maxed out = supra twin -> single turbo on wide tires

handing maxed out = tossup between rx7, evo GSR or SE.... the 6spd gearbox on a MR are iffy to me.

Wasn't there some sort of best motoring challenge with all these cars.. i could of sworn And the skyline demolished everyone around the track, if I recall correctly...

once you replace the 90s rx7 with a 2002 rx7 then it would be a better comparison..

in that case i would say it would be close but the rx7 should win.
