Secondly... In the drag racing world, a couple tenths is huge.

Am not trivializing 2 tenths in the drag world, I was off by a couple of tenths in my statement, I couldnt remember EXACTLY. Close enough...like I said b4 no big deal

.... you cant compare and AWD inline-6 twin turbo car to a rwd N/A 4cyl, thats apples to oranges. if anything you can compare the NSX to the skyline

and again i now the Z is the better car now, but look at this way it only took nissan what... a good 8 to 9yrs to catch up to honda's engineering because thats how i see it.

Uh......the only reason why it could barely hang with us is because you would have to rev the crap out of that econobox piece of junk. 
Since your such a Honda fan, please go buy an S2000 and tell us how it drives. But wait, aren't you buying a Z anyways?
LOL......

Nissan has consistently BEEN building performance cars better and longer then honda. Your looking at the big pic...Nissan performance> Honda Performance, always has, and prob always will. I'd like 2 c honda even dream of an answer 2 the new skyline, let alone the spec V in 2010

Like I said, they need to come out with some RWD cars and more power.
Acura might have some AWD cars, but still the power isn't there.

LOL......<3 how everyone makes comments about power when both cars are designed to HANDLE. There is a reason neither cars have power increases compared to their respective base versions.

yes, i will say nissan has stepped up big time with the new GTR because that thing is sexy and fast as hell there's no doubt about it. so we'll just have to see what the new NSX has to offer, i hear its coming with a AWD v10 550hp but like i said we'll just have to see.
