iv seen many 350z on late model gt's ('00+) on the track the stang will win, but because the highway is all about high speeds, the 350z will toast the stang
not to sound like a ricer, but it is true, sometimes it is not just power that wins you the race
for example, 2 nights ago me any my buddy who has had a stock celica went decided to put our cars to the test. of cource, me having the stang puts the celica to shame with almost double the power and more than double the engine size.
on the small scale races from stop lights and rolls, i toasted his ass and served it with jam but when we hit highway, that was all his turf, from 60, i blast off to the hundreds in a couple seconds, leaving him a bit behind, but a couple seconds later he zips right by me at ~230mph while i am left in the mid to low end 100's

lol yes they do hit those speeds, you guys probably havent been properly introduced to the import world yet i will post a vid from streetfire later of my freind's turboed celica gts...it will knock your socks off
and those 350z's have the coolest exhaust note that a v6 has ever had, imo. all the nissans with the 3.5L sound really cool. sound like **** with the fartcan, though.

He said the celica is turbo, which means it probably had a bit of work done to it. Its perfectly feasible for a car to be faster than any [production car once modifications begin.

we've been more than introduced. 2000si is our local import guru.
wait a minute.. aren't you the same person that beats LS1 and 99+ GTs in your 06 v6? which is pretty much stock?
nevermind, that was a turbo AWD WRX.

Yea, but 230mph?? In a Celica??? NOT!
Any car doing 180MPH + (let alone 230MPH)) better have some seriously sick aerodynamics to keep it from flipping. Even A Porchse GTR (or whatever the $1/4 mil car they have is) hits a brick wall around 215. Cooeficient of drag keeps the car from going any faster... A celica going that fast... Here, I just bought a Ford Fusion and it does 220 MPH (NASCAR version) Sorry, it's not a Fusion any longer.

You must have been stoned out of your mind. There is no way in hell that a STOCK celica is going to go 230mph, let alone a modded one. Though modded one may be able to (still doubt it though) a stock one sure as hell won't unless it comes falling out of an airplane. Believe me, you definately don't sound like a ricer.

A newer celica will NEVER hit 230mph. I would be willing to put money on that if anyone is interested.
Now, MAYBE the "supra" bodystyled one with a 2jz swap and a HUGE turbo....
I have not notice any difference between the 287 and the 300 horsepower models.
are you talking about racing them or driving them? i'm pretty sure the 300hp models are only good for two things 1)marketing ploy (people like 300hp better than 287hp despite the tq loss) and 2)track use. the extra hp changes the powerband a bit and lets you wind it out just a bit more.
