Thats thirty years difference, plus the SA has 6 lens elements and the Nikkor has 8. I would expect a much closer outcome whith the Nikkor vs. the present Schneider successor, the SA Classic f/6.8, which is a comparatively new 8-element construction.
Still it was an interesting comparison, thanks for sharing!
