Lol yeah Those words came up when our GT-R was at the dealership for a "secret" recall action. and tom was all "well since the Engine is out of the car. we can swap the intercooler but while we're at it we should also do the blowoff valves, intake and upgraded turbos"

happened with the Z too. "since the engine will have to go out for the painting.. you know while we're at it we should install a TT kit"

I want a Z · 02-28-2011, 03:11 PM

drifting back towards a 5.0
I think it may end up being a better DD then the Z

Dont regret my decision one bit, especially when I hear that thunderous roar coming from the pipes when I floor it. In some aspects I miss my Z, in particular, its ridiculous good looks, but it had no torque whatsoever. My 5.0 liquifies tires at part throttle. Do it.

Vegitto-kun · 02-28-2011, 03:23 PM

I actually wonder....what kind of traffic do you guys have to justify a V8 torque monster?

The Z itself feels like overdoing it here.

a nice DD from my experience is a megane coupé

loved that car. nice room inside, nice trunk, nice MPG and a pretty good looking car.

but then again I would probably pick the megane coupe RS instead of the normal one.

Well guys, add me to the list of those that defected from the Z to the 5.0. Just picked up my black 5.0 with premium package today. It was tough letting the Z go, but this thing is just a beast in every way. I'll try and get some pics up later.

Congrats man! I know what that feels like. Hope you stick around, there are plenty of us here.

saw a older model mustang today with an aftermarket exhaust

jizz in my pants.

then later a RAM SRT10 with also an aftermarket exhaust + intake

I shot through my roof.
