School me on turning FI car?

A safe assumption is you'll spend very nearly as much on supporting mods, install and tuning as the kit cost. Budget that much, and if you come in under so much the better. You don't want to get caught short and have to cut corners somewhere. It's such a slippery slope once you get into something like this. You'll spend a fortune on things that you might as well swap out "while you're in there".

I kinda resent that statement since I'm the G BP install guinea pig

Going to be some good FI builds in Houston with the 370z platform.

Dude come on by. We'll likely be at it for three straight weekends getting everything correct.

Truer words never spoken. Just think of the kit purchase as half your entry price. Now with the BP kit you get a little relief cause it comes with complete oil cooler setup. Not to mention Sasha gives you everything you need to install except your common tools.

Well the kit is solid on the 370z and honestly the fitment should not be that much different for the G. Well wedding is not until April 4 but every weekend is mostly full of meetings and final planning items. We were both talking that we should have just ran off and got married in Vegas, party, gamble, have fun, and be done with it quickly. Plus save all the cash...

I'm all for saving the money on the big blow out wedding and putting it toward something you will ues.

As for timing your good, we aren't starting the tear down until mid-April
