That's why I never did it. Though IMO the Z looks much better then a GTR and with a used GTR power mods are not any cheaper so...
I ended up spending money on some small NA upgrades, a real sound system, appearance type stuff, and best of all track time. That track time showed me that ~300whp is plenty to learn on.

Oh and and the pricing was done with NYC labor rates ~100/hr
There are plenty of places to cut costs but that plan was for high reliability, easy drive ability, and things to save money later for future power.
