Its funny watching you paying at falcons when you say your car is shit.
from what ive been told (not first hand experience) ive heard that the 300ZX is pretty slow compared to some of the other imports around, and that they handle shit house

yep me too, They are ****en heavy too. They are not light like your average 180sx or something, they would be on par with weight with the majority of falcons of the same age.

/me thinks a 300zx is the only fastish car this kid has been in.


It has twin turbos! It must me fast :

obviously that drag 300ZX is quick...but you cant base an opinion on an entire model on a car that is built for racing....

if you wanna do that, we'll get a nizpro equipped "piece of shit" falcon XR6 and see how that goes.....i know for a fact geea runs 11's on full street gear....and he isnt at the peak of the nizpro tree ;)

Pfft i dont give a crap bout wat other ppl think. my car is NA just must b everythn is all good in it-(never had any engine probs). might have mods im unaware of. just a ****load lighter than these V6s and shit and i can obviously drive better than them. i dont deny it. but its still funny when a $4k car takes a $40k no troubles.

Pfft just get my mates bros 300ZX own every1.
I think you are racing the people that half accelerate from the lights, because stock figures of a tx5 and a commo or Ford the tx5 doesnt really compare.. oh and on the 300zx that cant be beat! you have just made my day, let me guess its not stock, because stock the 300zx was not a very fast car for twin turbo...

yeah of course its not stock. neither r these V8s ppl r talkn bout (they often got more work done to them). its got boost controller, pod, and exhausts. no turbo or intercooler upgrade either. basically wat it all boils down to is personal opinion. i know from my experiences turbos kick ***. and yes there r sum fast commys falcons which i admire. and as for beatin other cars in my TX5. yes i have done it and yes i have been beaten aswell. whether they tried or whether its the driving or not, i dont know, u cant really tell. all i do know was this guy came flying up to me and was givn me hell at the lights, revn the **** outta his car.

i beat an R33 Skyline in my mums stock EF fairmont on my L's once....he didnt go for it at all...but i beat him :eclipsee_

mitch, you're entitled to your opinion, but to voice it in the way you have on this forum, maybe not the best way to start out here....this is a ford forum, so its dominated by 6's and 8's....i also own a tx5, and cop some stick for it from some people...but i still love the falcons.

and if we wanna get technical, watch 2fast 2 furious.....when tyrese revs his little spyder, and the charger almost blows him off the road with a rev of the engine....that says it all. lol

Prime examples of why I don't line em up at traffic lights. All it needs is a low performance driver in a high performance car and he's heading into your lane to take you out.

the point is that at the end of the day, i think the muscle will always beat the blower if they are both fully specced.

my post was VIP Dez. :P

oh, What happened to your awesome discussion with the dude who loves 300zx and thinks that Commodores and Falcons arn't sports cars I was enjoying that Discussion...

Madmanz: Somethings just don't need to be discussed, especially in an off topic manor. Start a new thread about fast and the furious and N/A TX5's..

Oh and incase you didn't notice.

there may... just MAY have been a touch of sarcasm in my posts.

if you would like to discuss this matter further and since you are doing a really good job about taking this discussion off topic yourself, next time how about a PM.

Hmmm. the incar where the stang rolls over and the tuner thingy is dangling from its cable infront of the camera happened because of a Broken axle, it was a thread on Mustangsandmore.com, some of the guys know the guy ISTR.

I'd say most of those prangs where the car sudenly turns hard right or hard left are axles letting go in cars with a spooled diff.... Although the one where the green camaro hits the black and red barge looks like one of the suspension links let go (or collapses wholesale) and causes a blowout (tyre smoke followed by car suddenly turning)

Oh yeah, haven't found a 300zx I cant beat :P
see sig
