Question 3000gt vs supra non turbo and mustang v6

I have a 97 3000gt (base) with K&N FIPK

How would this go against:

94 supra (non-turbo) w/ custom exhaust (automatic)

2000 Mustang Convertible v6 w/ custom exhaust

I am not real sure about the Supra, But I know the Mustang would not stand a chance. I have a 92 Stealth RT and my friend has a 2000 Mustang V6. His car is smooth but its not fast at all.

You'll have to let me what happends with the Supra cause you dont see many of those around.

Same with the new V6 Eclipse those are dissapointing as well.

actually, the 92 stealth r/t has 222 hp, where the 97 base has the SOHC engine , with only 161 HP... the supra will prolly take you, and the you and the mustang should be about even...

The Supra Auto puts to the ground about the same h.p. you have at the crank.But you never know, there are s.o.h.c. guys who beat our d.o.h.c. cars all the time.I have a feeling if you get a good jump on the start you will stay there until higher speeds 90 m.p.h. and above.Just have fun. Mike

I would have to guess that you don't stand a chance against the supra. The best run I've done in my SOHC stealth was a 16.9, whereas the na supras are running mid to high 15's stock. They've got the same hp as the NA 3s's, but I think that they might do a little bit better with it. What kinda times are stock RT's and SL's running?

My 95 RT auto gteched best of 15.64.This week I got a high stall converter and a shift kit and my new best is15.01@101.xx not all SLs RTs run the same time and that has to be the same with the s.o.h.c. Mike

15.01 @101 ?? with an auto? interesting... the guys with the manual vr-4s are running 13.5's with around the same trap speed...
