If ur 300zx was stock the rsx would win...but not by much, since u've done mods its prob even now.

Hey gradyman as for you racing the acura rsx I can tell you about my experience with one in my stock 93 z28. I got behind one that is all riced out with a license plate that says "wantsome". Well I had heard about the car from my friend because of the license plate. Well I happened to get behind him going to my grandmothers house for dinner. We were behind a slow poke but eventually the slow poke had to stop and wait on oncoming traffic to turn left. Once the oncoming traffic passed and the slow poke turned left I pulled out from behind a brand new riced out acura rsx type r type s who cares as soon as i changed lanes he nailed it well i pulled right by him what a joke. Then after a little straight away theirs a wierd banked turn and then my grandmothers road turns really sharp back the other way. Well I came in there in my camaro fast because it handles "really well" HAhahahaha then I look in the mirror to see if he follows me and I see him slide all the way across the road and into a ditch, then slams into a bank and cocks it up on two wheels. I guess he "gotsome". Since your N/A 300zx is so much better than my camaro you should have zero problems with the acura rsx.

plus the maximum amount of letters that are on a license plate are 7, therefore making it impossible for his to say "wantsome" just thought i would point that out

well in northcarolina you can have 8 characters on a personalized plate thats just the way it is. Im not talking trash just want you to accept the fact that any stock car with 200 to 300 horsepower no matter what it is, is fair game in handling ability. Driver skill plays the biggest part. If your judging handling ability by how fast the car will go without gettting loose thats wrong. If your not sliding your not driving as fast as the car can go. Im saying that even though my camaro slides I can make it handle and go around the track as fast as a 300zx or a 350z. I am not 16 I am 22 and have a lot of experience builiding engines and tuning cars. Just look at my ftp site ftp://filesrus.sytes.net to see pictures of the car I just built with a direct port nitrous setup. You can log in with a user name of gradyman and a password of gradyman. I think you will see im much more inteligent than you think. I'm also a computer whiz and have a college education. Evidently the 300zx must not be any better than a z28 because they run in the same scca solo 2 category F stock but the 350z is better because it is in B stock with bmw M roadsters and m3's and 928 and 944 porsches and turbo 90+ 300zx but I keep up. Just wait till I go back again this was my first try. The N/A 300zx's are in my group so maybe there will be some at the next event I'll let you know how they measure up.

what makes u guys so sure that an 4 cylinder 200 hp i-vtec will win against a 1990 na 5 speed with one of nissan's most reliable and powerful(for it's time) the VG series?? that is putting out at least 225 hp...
correct me if i am wrong but the 300 would whup the shit out of the rsx...but i could be wrong...so no flaming just trying to learn here.

the z weighs more the the rsx and the non turbo version only has 222hp to be exact, not atleast 225. i do agree that the z's base engine is strong and has great potential if modifed,but when it comes to handling i go for the rsx, when it comes to straight away maybe the z if they are lucky cause if u think about its almost even. the z has 22 more horses but the rsx weighs less. with the twin turbo version that makes 300hp thats another story, but come on now its twin turbo. imo though thats pathetic, 2 turbo's both making 77hp? but on that topic of a camaro having better handling, please. that is the dumbest thing i've heard, domestics has the advantage on straight road , but when it comes to turns imports rule. the only explanation if this really happened is the driver of the rsx can't drive, what a disopointment.

went to do some research just to confirm what i wrote was true, and it was. the rsx type-s is actually faster the the z by .2 secs
(rsx-s 1/4 mile=15.2, z's 1/4 mile=15.4)
weight of rsx=2775lbs
w of z=3221lbs
w of camaro= 3510lbs, this thing weighs freakin 900+ lbs more!
