    ok, having owned both a 300ZX twin turbo and a 4th gen w/ B16, i have to say, although the B16 is nice and quick, it is NO WHERE NEAR as fast as a 300zx twin turbo. probably faster than a late 80s turbo 300zx, but trust me on this one, you will not be as fast as a 300zx, a late model supra, or a late model RX-7. a b16 hatch might be able to hang w/ a N/A 300zx..i dunno. but i would also say that a b16 hatch is almost up there w/ a teg type R.

    Like Ben said its not going to touch a Turbo Z, the NA Z's only ran high 15's "I have seen a few at the drag strip run 16's that are NA

    I have a good friend that has a N/A 300zx and a turbo 300zx (both late 80's models). I have no doubt that a b16a will take the N/A 300zx.....these cars are dogs getting off the line, and unless you're racing one on an open highway I'd say you'd take him 9 out of 10 times. NOW, a 300zx turbo will smoke you because of two reasons: 1.) Of course it is turbo and 2.) Very few people leave their old turbo 300zx's stock. Little mods to that engine (strong 3L V6) mean high power gains. My friend's just increased the boost on his car, added a larger fuel pump and put a 3" exhaust and he's running 13.6 on street tires, full interior and the car will knock you to your seat when the turbo spools up. I forgot to mention that is with the stock turbine still there....be careful when you want to race one, they can be complete sleepers like my friend's.

    I say it's all about the driver of the car too, i have raced a 300zx early 90's model both turbo and n/a and i have beaten both of them at the track the turbo might have been an auto though, but i say it depends how good of the driver in the z is.

    What about if you have turbo kit on a b16a engine will that one beat 300zx...

    And one more question what's is the time of those two cars(0-60mp/h):

    1.) swap in b16a2 with turbo kit
    2.)swap 1.8 integra type-R engine 190HP

    *Bouth engine swap in 4th gen HB civic

    Do anyone here knows how fast are those cars with that mods, cause all I wannt to do is swap in my car engine from integra type-R (1.8 190 HP),my dream...hope some day come true... smile

    Thanx for all your info wink
