I saw a guy(yes, in person) run 12.97 with NOTHING done to his '99 Z. How's that for paper information? And I do believe they quit making turbo 3000gt's in '97 or '98 can't remember which. In any case, anything can happen on the street, we all know this for a fact. Even at the track for that matter. So go find one, race it with a good driver, and find out...

SL motor...
3.0L SOHC with 160HP
GT motor...
3.0L DOHC with 222HP
VR-4 motor...
3.0L DOHC twin-turbo with up to 320HP in later models (300HP in early models)
The VR-4 does weigh a lot more, mainly because of the AWD/AWS options. Your 305TBI will get raped by a VR-4, and will have trouble with a standard GT. Might have a chance against the SL though. SL = SLOW
I was looking at buying one of these last year because I think they look awesome. The VR-4s had some cool stuff like a speed-sensitive adjustable spoiler and the AWS. Twin-turbo is cool too of course. Then again, all of this stuff comes at a pretty hefty price, and very expensive repairs...not to mention another 400lbs of weight. Nevertheless, they are very quick cars for weighing 3800lbs and only having 300HP.
