Why do you change your timing belt so frequently? If the belt fails on turbos, the valves will not contact cylinders as on standard model.
Not true.

The 370Z is a newer car and without the turbos it is indefinetly going to be more reliable then a 20 year old twin-turbo sports car. Not to say the 300ZX wasnt reliable, it was, but its not going to be more reliable then a brand new car.

And ALL 300ZXs had interference engines, so if the timing belt broke the odds of your valves bending was very high.
