Assuming equal drivers and fair weather conditions the Evo 8 gets an easy win followed by a tossup between the S2K and 350Z (if it's a MT) with the slight edge to the Z mainly because it's easier to get consistent times with, then the RX-8.

Evo = Mid 13s
S2K = 14 flatish
350Z = 14 flatish
RX-8 = mid 14s

Trim levels will also change this a bit, such as the Evo RS and MR will be faster, 04+ S2K should be a little faster, and the Z and RX-8 will be slowed a bit with excess options.

Not too mention the 8 could have 4 people in it and be slowed up due to all the people wanting a closer look :) OK, its late, forgive me :(

I agree except I seriously doubt the non RS evo will EVER run 13.5

Wonderful comparison of 4 cars... none of which were designed to be drag racers. If you are concerned with 1/4 mile times, go buy a mustang.

i would say the Z would be less than 14's. probably mid-high to high 13's.
