Been lurking for awhile, finally registered. I'm doing my research on a 'retirement toy' planning on supercharging/turboing a new 370 next year. I've go a lot of catching up and researching to do. Great site!

Welcome Jeff,

I'm planning on twin turbo kit too

Loving my 370Z for now, but I think it could use a little more torque under the 5k rpm mark, it really turns into a beast after that, but I'm more use to the type of torque a V8 makes at the lower RPM range.

Welcome Jeff! 370ZTTs will be beasts! Just make sure you upgrade the brakes and suspension to keep up with it

My goal is to have a full blown track/daily driver. I'm into hondas and ninjas, but the Z's have always had a place in my heart. My old girlfriends 280, my x-wifes boyfriends 280 LOL, and my partners mom had a new 300 back in the late 80's. I just loved that 300, but I'm planning on breaking my bank, selling my zx14, selling the 95 hatch, and the 96 accord....to build my dream car. I'm still one, maybe two years from the goaline, but I'm building my knowledge base first so I can do the majority of my own work. Luckily, I will be living a few hours from Dallas this time next year, so a tuner shouldn't be an issue.
Twin turbo is also an option...still checking the different setups, and want something semi-reliable as a daily ride.
Thanks for the welcome, gotta read...
