alright, after reading to this, I will share my experiences now.
I've beaten any tC, modded or stock, that's came my way. Those things are dog slow. even tho they are rated almost identical hp/tq, they put out much less at the wheels.
I've beaten any Spec V, modded or stock, that's came my way. That may have to do with drivers cause I've only raced from a dig, but I've beaten them none the less.
I've even beaten a '05 type S and that was a very close race. We only went to the middle of 3rd gear but I was in front.
That's what I have to compare to.

yea I would assume that would have to be a BS call about beating all the cars that come your way, you win some you lose some, just learn from your experiences and beat them again.

Also, im gonna have to call BS on your friends 2005 RSX-s with I/E hanging or 'up there' with 350z's. Althought the 2005 Type-S is significantly faster and takes to mods better than 2002-2004, I/E is not gonna have you in 350z territory. Catback exhaust does nothing for the 2005, as the stock system is already freeflowing, very similiar to the DC5 Integra Type-R. If anything, CAI and DCRH and a catback will get you the added power, and they put you in 350z territory. I know for a fact I/H/E on a 2005 rsx-s can pull a 350z, because I watch my friend do it numerous time (I was holding the camera).

100% agree with you my brother has the 05 touring 350Z with injen cai and we killed a Black RSX-S his mods were I/H/E and we killed by at least 2.5 car lengths

ok, about the tibby GT my buddy has a 05 SE V6 6-speed.
from a roll i stay right next to him til top of 4th then he pulls slow until about 120mph then he stomps me into the ground.
from a dig he can win without a problem.
also, about corolla's being slow, i have another buddy who has a 98 corolla Le 5-speed and from a dig i destroy him from a roll i cant get by him until about 90 then i walk him.
my car full of people next to a TC with i/e on the freeway he couldnt lose me if his life depended on it, after 100mph our RA's pull like a SOB

I haven't raced a V6 Tibby yet, but alot of ppl tell me its kinda dissapointing. I raced a friends older tib fx (think a 99, maybe) with Intake and exhaust while i was still stock and i won no contest......what can you say, its a hyundai.
