Default you can say what you like but you can't beat 280 horses with no heat soak and no spool time

love the TT for what it is, just don't try it on with these puppies unless you're SIII. On paper I am guessing I have around 265-275 (X) so I'm still a little short and they have no lag.

Sure I have quattro but you know what I mean - flame suit on :P

Default Steve, if you look at the power band, the delivery is way up there

hence there is spool time.

Default Having driven the new 350Z, let me say...

The power comes on fast and is quite linear. When upshifting to 2nd or 3rd, let's say, the power is immediately there.

It doesn't have the surge that the TT has, and that surge can be kind of fun. However, the Z is quick. Having said that, I don't think it would bury a chipped and tuned 225 TTC. This contest would likely come down to driver skill.

ditto, a chipped TT would be a level playing field.

I'd agree if it was a 225 TTC. Not sure I'd agree if it was a TTR.
