I think a stock 240 has a better suspension. But a 300 has a bigge block size, so they cant be compaired speed wize. I mean, if you have never seen either car and you had to chose one which would you choose?

Dude, no contest, the Z32 with the VG30DETT. Can't beat 300hp and 250 ft-lbs of torque. Raw power. That car is still a beauty today, and very tunable. Hard to work on, but the parts exist. I wanna get one later on. Get a 2+2 and convert it to twin turbo. It's been done before. It's gonna be an awesome track car.
BTW, looks-wise, it's a beautiful car. Awesome curves, low to the ground, wide, and it's a full blown sports car. That car was made for the track. The 240Sx is just it's baby brother.

Yeah, it's like comparing Mazda's Miata to the RX-7s, almsot no contest. The 240SX is just the sporty coupe, not full blown sports car like the 300ZX.

You take which person? Lol, but's it's true. The 240SX is the baby brother of the 300ZX like the Miata is the baby bro of the FC/FD.
