I'm lucky to have a girl that would rather have a turbo upgrade than diamonds. :roflpuke2: |
I'm going to leave it NA. I did a little digging and there's a TON of work that needs to be done to convert a NA car to turbo and do it right.

throw enough money at any car and it can be "nasty"

Or just throw mud at it for a more cost effective alternative :rofl2:

They have a nice kit that can actually get you a nice (for an S2000) torque curve.
|

Does the R-35 at least come stock with paddle shifters? The one I sat in didn't seem to have them.
|
Yeah I'm pretty sure they all have paddles.
|
Yeah they all have paddle shifters. The paddle shifters are exactly the same ones as in the Z :tup:

I can drive a manual, just waiting for the right time to sell my car and buy a new one. Ask Steve how many times I was thinking about selling my car. Decided it would be best to wait until the new 5.0 and C7 come out.
|
It was actually Rob who taught me after a Columbia meet one day in his Z :tup:

Fun story about me and manual transmissions: I learned to drive on a MT but didn't drive one at all after that. Went through years of driving only AT cars. Friends and my ex-fiance made me drive stick now and then because they thought it was funny. Lots of stalls etc.
Cut to 2009 and I decide to buy a Z and basically said "yeah no, not doing AT, we're going to learn MT right here and now". Took delivery of the car and the sales guy hopped in to take it to the gas station with me to fill it up. The gas station was about 2 blocks from the dealership. I start to get in the passenger's seat and the guy goes "no wait, what? This is your car, you drive"... Sooooo after the 3rd time I stalled it on the way to the station, the sales guy does a really slooooow turn from the passenger seat to stare at me at which point I go "GOD I'M SORRY" and he goes "uh, no buddy. It's your car. You don't need to apologize". For a while I would avoid roads which involved stopping on steep inclines at lights because I was afraid I would roll backwards into someone. I vividly remember waving people around me once or twice. Then I got the hang of it and everything was fine ... ... .. ... That is until I melted the entire clutch assembly into slag by 9k miles http://www.the370z.com/members/dmhen...7-gf-frank.gif Nissan replaced it free of charge (clutch, flywheel, everything) because there was "just no way that could have been due to abuse at only 9k miles" |
That's funny. When we went to buy my 2003 Mustang GT I couldn't drive stick. We bought the car and the salesman dropped me off in an empty parking lot. My dad followed so he could take the salesman back.
About 20 minutes later my dad gets back and the first thing I said to him was "I can get to 70 in the parking lot!" He facepalmed and followed me home. |
