Stating the obvious here, both ZR-1 and Z06 are special models above and beyond a regular Corvette, the Z06 probably benefits from a few years of engineering, the older ZR1 can't be faulted for that. The ZR-1 was however a much greater leap in performance both among the C4 and supercars at the time. They still seem very close in acceleration which says a lot about how advanced it was, and it still stacks up pretty good. It will always be a lot more unique, whether that translates into higher values is up to the buyers.
