I don't recall any races in Starfire that appeared to act like 'Preds',
but
I think some of the art work for First Contact made the machine race
look a
little like them. However, there were more than a few home brew races
that
were being passed around, similar though not as many as SFB, so anything
is
possible.

However, was there ever any argument over the Khanate being Kzin
inspired?

Um... no, the "Predators" aren't a Starfire race AFAIK - not the
Starfire
I think of, at least. The few Predator novels I've seen seem to couple
them together with the "Aliens" (of Sigourney Weaver fame :-), but I'm
not sure if it is those Predators you're thinking of?
