Nice. Have you decided on what you are going to do with the car? Build the motor, sell it, etc?

To be honest I really don't know. This is my 2nd boosted z and I love the car but finding decent shops and parts seem poor and I now worry about further problems down the road. I am considering a m3, Porsche, or even a gtr. The bottom line is, it is so much easier to make a fast car faster.. Most company's who do make aftermarket parts for the z are just in it for the quick buck and lack customer service when needed after.

You don't need to upgrade one though. That's the advantage

Yes its expensive but you can get a lot out of it and there are a few companies that put out quality parts at a decent price. Mid pipe, tune, and some E85 and you are making BIG power

the only thing that kept me away from the GTR was the size, I really dislike how massive the vehicle is.
