Thanks for the welcoming words kellyefields. I guess you could say drive them Zs till they kill you OR once you go Z, you never come back

I think I would like to own more than one at a time, I am looking for an 83 280zx since it was my first love but I hear the rumor that the Z may get the AMG engine in the next model so I will need to be saving my pennies for that. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Yea cool find, but I dont see anything like that happening. I would hope Nissan learned there lesson with the 300ZX turbo and its 40-50K pricing and not kill another Z.

With the number of people that are going the FI route another putting another 10 grand into min. it seems like nissan would like to put that money in there pocket. Maybe they should offer the Nismo version with a TT setup only. Produce only a limited number to make it exclusive and call it a day. I would say there would be a waiting list if that were to happen. Who knows I will just settle building mine with a stroker kit to bring up the liters to a 4.5 and slap a TT on it. By the time i complete that I will have it to tear up the streets with and purchase the next model and be able to do it without having to worry about downtime since I already have a monster setting next to it.

Very nice kellyefields. I highly doubt that Nissan would risk placing a 500HP in a Z without the risk of killing its GTR niche... "Is that the new GTR ? no it is a 375Z and it is half the price of a GTR but the same power"
BTW, I love your profile pic ,simply awesome!!
