In any type of rational situation, (you find 4-5 miles of clear highway and run up to 200 and back down) you will probably need around 450-500 rwhp (going off a Z car addled mind here). To get a Z up to 200 you will have to rev to about 8K though as it has a 5 spd in place of the R34s or Supras 6spd. And let us not forget that getting up there and staying up there long enough to get to 200 is
very hard on your car. As in we don't want to blow anything at 190 going on 200.
And...Skylines and Supras and Zs and all other high performance cars are pretty aero dynamic. I know the Skyline looks like a box but looks are decieving when it comes to air flow (as shown in the fact that most modern sport bikes have around the same drag co-efficent as semis, due to the utterly open back of the otherwise highly aerodynamic front).
Anyway...

Didn't mean to sound like a dick, sorry if I came off like that.
Come on..
you think Nissan is going to let the great and famous Z car family turn into an overweight leather recliner?
HEHE! NOT FKING LIKELY! They are a hell of alot of fun to drive (I
highly recommend it) and very quick on their feet

240 has near perfect weight ratio, and a pretty good susp. setup from the factory

I'm sorry to say that the 240 is a little ass heavy, just enough to influence high speed cornering negatively but it does handly extremely well for a stock ride. Absolutely no arguing that.
And one more thing
