Why are people saying it's too expensive for the Z if no one has done yet ( I'm not just talking about the GTR engine either). Why are they singling out the Z like it's got a completely different set up than any other car out there?
Because he wants to transplant an engine from a $35k wrecked GTR into his $35k 370Z. That's $70k in the hole without even having done the work or troubleshooted the multitude of problems that are ahead of him.

When he's done, he'll look back and wish he just bought a GTR. Unless it's done right. Then he'll look back and wonder why he paid more than a GTR costs.
