So I'm bored, surfing the370z site when I end up looking at GTM's MHI TT Group Buy. Ah man, now I'm torn. Prior to the Z I had a damn near fully customized big turbo SRT4. Car was very fast...in a straight line. Sold it...loved the Z ever since.

I've been autocrossing the Z in near stock form for the past 4 years and now I have the mod bug. What's holding me back is that I like the Z almost the way it is. Another 100-150 whp would be great but I don't want to upset the balance of how well the car performs. Plus, boost is addictive and knowing my past I would probably end up buying more and more stuff...damn I suck!

What would happen with your autocrossing if you added a turbo? I remember you saying there were very few things you could modify and stay in the class you're in.

I would jump into the SM (Modded Class). There's some serious built beast in there. I want to enjoy the Z both competitively and on the streets. Hope that makes sense.

Anyone want to have a meet. I just moved back to Charleston and am looking for like minded people to hang with.

I think our little group fell apart. I talked to a G35 owner yesterday. He's going to give me a call when they meet next. I'll let you know.
