This is a very interesting comparison.
Especially when you consider the turbo models. Having driving both and owning a mk3 1JZ Supra I would say it would be purely personal preference which would dictate which car you choose. As they are both VERY evenly matched on a stock platform.
However, when the modding begins, in my opinion the supra takes the lead in leaps and bounds. Have you ever seen the engine bay of a 300 with a VG30DETT squeezed in there ? More to the point, how many substantially modified ones are there ? A few maybe, but if you take both cars, mod them to the nth degree - which one is cheaper. The supra has a cheaper updgrade path, arguably a stronger engine, and quite possibly is a tad quicker than the Zed.
On the flip side however, if you start comparing a 7M-GE, or GTE, well ... apples and oranges guys, they are a totally different fruit. While the 7M-GTE might come close it will never truly compete on an even playing field with the VG30DETT - it's just a step down in terms of power output and engine endurance (?).
In terms of N/A performance, I couldn't rightly say. Test drive a few and find out which car does it for you!
