Re: TA vs RX7

Is it a Twin Turbo RX-7? I would say it'd be close, but the LS1 would edge it out.

Re: TA vs RX7

I know that Trans AM LS1 cars are low 13 to mid 13 second cars from the factory.

I searched a database for stock car times and came up with

1995 Mazda RX-7 R2 0-60 5.3 1/4 14.1

the same site said this

1998 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 5.1 13.4

So judging by the information assuming both cars were stock I would say the Trans AM would win.

Its very easy to research on the internet. However this is just a guess, there are many other factors to consider when attempting to determine real world performance.

Re: TA vs RX7

T/A will win, but it will be fairly even up until 70mph

Re: TA vs RX7

if the rx7 has full exhaust and an air filter....it will win....if it has stock exhaust and air filter....the t/a will win....and i would say from a dig the rx7 will have less of a chance....i own a 93 rx7 with a fair amount of mods...and my friend owns a 98 trans am....so weve been through this one mod at a time...lol.....
