Ive never owned a 350 so i dont know, but has anyone actually bothered to take 5 minutes to check ? I know a few people here actually HAVE both cars. Hell the whole cars pretty much the same. same transmission, same engine just bored slightly bigger? or is it stroke? not sure which they used to get the .2L and slap on some garbage phone in solution for gas mileage called VVEL "heads" make it a little wider and shorter, erase a few lights, add boomerangs........and your GTG.

I should work for nissan, Got an idea for the new Z. Just take the old Z give it a 4L that mysteriously doesnt make any more hp than the last model but weighs 43 tons and sits higher than the driver, change the rims, add something shiny "people like shiny" change the lights, and increase the price. boom the 400Z is born. thanks me later nissan, i have all your hard R&D covered.
So I guess your thing is just to talk out your @ss and see what sticks.

GTM Prototype. There still isn't a decent solution. Joe at ZSpeed was working on one for awhile. Not sure why a vendor hasn't stepped up here given that there are quite a few guys on their 3rd-5th CMC's. I'm soon to be on my 3rd

Should I fork over my money in hopes I'll get one?

Unless Phunk wants to expand his product offering?
