The only reason to get any of those three cars is to do something with it. I voted the supra because the only thing that you could do to a zx is maybe some engine work which you can also do with a supra, and with the Rx-7 I just don't like the fact that it has no pistons. Also that they are horrible engines. I also would prefer the supra because of the specs
These are all Turboed just in case. Exspecially the 95' Rx-7 Performance (supra) Acceleration (0-60 mph): 4.9 sec. Braking Distance: 109 ft. Road Holding Index: 0.98 g Base Number of Cylinders: 6 Base Engine Size: 3 liters Base Engine Type: Inline 6 -1 Horsepower: 320 hp Max Horsepower: 5600 rpm Torque: 315 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 4000 rpm Drive Type: RWD Turning Circle: 35.8 ft. Performance (300zx) Base Number of Cylinders: 6 Base Engine Size: 3 liters Base Engine Type: V6 -1 Horsepower: 300 hp Max Horsepower: 6400 rpm Torque: 283 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 3600 rpm Drive Type: RWD Turning Circle: 34.1 ft. Performance (Rx-7) Base Number of Cylinders: 2 Base Engine Size: 1.3 liters Base Engine Type: Rotary -1 Horsepower: 255 hp Max Horsepower: 6500 rpm Torque: 217 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 5000 rpm Drive Type: RWD Specs are great aren't they. Go for the Supra if you know whats best for you. Got all specs from edmunds.com by the way the 0-60's if you noticed aren't on the last two cause thye didn't have it logged. So if you want to know what it is Pm me and I will help you do the math.

The Supra Baby! Inline 6, RWD, Twin Turbo(optional) Raw power! Sure beats a V-6 nissan, or wankel mazda. But I do like all three.Ah the days of the mid 90's are gone, they were all discontinued. But Nissan is comin back, So is Mazda. Everyone pray for the Supras Return to the U.S.

I vote for the 300zx TT (Im am a bit biased though
 )They are a great bang for buck and have good modding potential, although the labour costs get quite expensive. The '91 ZXs run a 13.7 qm stock, not bad for a 12 yo car! |

oh yea. I think the 300Z probably has the biggest potential out of a LOT of cars, not only these three. I mean, everything's got potential but the Z one is more than capable of getting pretty nicely up there

How can you say that the Z has the biggest power potential out of the three of these cars? First off, through very simple modifications(BPU) the Supra pushes well over 400 rwhp. Secondly, I have seen consistant horsepower numbers that range in the quad-digits with Supras. Please, find me a Z pushing 1000+hp numbers. And third, the number of 600 plus horsepower Supras is far greater than the number of Z's on the road pushing those kinds of numbers. Not only that, a lot of those 600 plus cars are daily driven.
Side note: I thought the RX-7 had 320 bhp stock

i was thinking on the same wavelength.
keep in mind how difficult it is to mod a z, b/c the engine and trans have to practically be taken out to get work done. not easy. engine bay is super cramped if you put bigger turbos on it. gotta drop cross member to swap clutch. verrrrrrrrry hot underhood b/c of under tray that is good for aero, not for cool-o. engines have a cooling problem due to casting flash in back (rear cyl's) read up on the build up that scc did on their white ride... nice car, but alot to drop temps...

The car that has the best bottom end to jack up the horsepower to 800+ is the Supra. However, all three (as well as my favorite VR4s) can get to the 400hp range with inexpensive mods.

RX-7 all the way. The styling far exceeds the Supra or 300ZX, and the handling absolutely destroys both of those cars on the track. Even if the car is a headache to work on mechanically speaking, how is that much different then working on a piston engine? Taking good care of that engine drastically reduces the amount of problems that develop. However I would rather kill myself then keep the stock TT setup on the rex, a single turbo is infinitely better for reliability, and power.

By the way, i did not mention how much i love the 2JZ-GTE engine. It is without a doubt the most over specced engine to ever leave the production table, most supra owners you meet running over 600HP still are using many of the stock internals.
Also Cynoptics, perhaps you should list the weight of each car, as it is the reason why the rex can still keep up regaurdless of lower hp figures, and 9000rpm redline hihi.

Teh 300zx can do anything the supra can. the main reason why you'll see less Zs with 1000hp than 1000hp Supras is because only a few people with 300ZXs would go over 500hp. the JUN/BLITZ 300zx makes 1000hp. Overall the rx-7 is the best car out of all three cars but I voted for teh Z cuz im biased and its the oldest of teh three.

My vote goes to the supra....oh yeaaah. I LOVE the looks and the style of it and the engine has so much potential, Even though you said stock I would still take it stock and then start on the mods later
