If you could build one with off the shelf parts that are availble today what would be your perfect Z? Plus, if you did finally build your perfect Z what would it take to get you out of it? The next Supra? A kickass next generation Skyline? This is assuming you were going to stay reasonably "around" the same price range. I know a lot of people tend to move up when it comes to their next car. Just curious.

 

Touring model with optional BBK / drilled rotors.

Factory F/I at a reasonable price.

I think that's all I would change.

I would probably sell my Z if I could afford the next gen NSX... but short of that, not much would get me out of it.

 

Z with brembos

Greddy twin turbo kit, with upgraded internals and greddy evo 2 tt exhaust, fuel management

some good 19 inch hypersilver rims on a Silverstone Z, some widebody kit, full suspension upgrade, cams pulleys wutever
No cats, just turbo back

a warranty for all of this would be good too
not a lot of cars in the price range of the Z would i pick...i would probably stay with the Z's lineup

 

No way would I give up my Z for a 'skyline'. A skyline GTR maybe. But a basic skyline verses a GTR is like a lancer verses a lancer EVO.

 

FULL NISMO FACTORY EDITION with Twin turbos or SuperCharger with graphics
Sparco Milano Prestige Leather seats with multi-point clips
Alpine Entertainment system with Focal / Morel speakers
Adjustable bi-Xenon lights
HIGH-QUALITY PAINT!!
Yokohama Ultra High-Performance tires

It would look close to this NISMO beauty:

+1

 

Turbos
Tougher/better paint
Better speakers
Nav that plays dvds as well

 

I'd make it look, sound and perform just like a Ferrari Enzo....

Just kidding..I'm already driving my ideal Z.....

 

my ideal Z is...everything I have right now, plus forged internals, turbo, and lambo doors.

What would get me out of it? A Lamborghini.

 

same as now but with an oem turbo and the infinity 4 year warranty, or yeah and stock 18x9.5 forged rims please

 

The way I have my z now... would be nice...
...with an RB26.. and a great LSD.

Elizebeth Hurley and Jesseca Simpson and I... in 3 way.. that would get me out of my Z .. otherwise.. I'll keep it

 

That's Mike....Always using his...oh nevermind...

 

4.3l low compression stroker kit with twin GT35R turbos and straight back custom 3" exhaust with a rebuilt transmission with shotpeened gears and stronger bearings. Kaaz limited slip with Hoosier quick time pros. Stage 5 axles, Zex 150 nitrous shot, stripped interior, carbon fiber hatch with plexan window. I might skip the rebuilt trans and go for a drag racing dogbox so i can compete with the performance motorsports 350z.

although i would take a Mercedes McClaren SLR over anything anyday.

 

RB26 swap tuned to 1000 horsepower and the Amuze CF kit for the whole car (doors, hatch, hood, fenders, bumpers, ). That would be bad ***...

 

How about a Z that weights lighter along the lines of 2600-2700 lbs, with a twin turbo V6 that's about as rev happy as an S2000 and a redline of 10,000 rpm and mated to a Supra TT transmission!!!!! No tire feathering issues, gear grinding, cheap paint chips, oil consumption, or all of that stuff.

And what would take me to get out of it??? The next generation Mazda RX-7 if it's worthy...either that or I'd take a fully built up '95 3rd gen RX-7 pushing 500+ reliable whp for everyday driving, but then again you can't have "reliable daily driver" and "RX-7" in the same sentence so I'll just stick to my imaginary Z

 

ideal: factory NISMO z-tune (the same one from GT4)
ideal w/ US spec car and parts: mine plus HKS exhaust, HKS Rotrex SC, powdercoated black 18" LMGT4s, Nismo clutch and Flywheel, Track Brembo brakes w/ Brembo slotted rotors

 

what i'd do is just drop my Z off at a very respectable tuning company such as Stillen, Amuse, Greddy, HKS, and ect.. and let them have their way with it with a note saying no expense is too great. I'm sure their expertise will go beyond my imagination.

 

Endless / Zeal with ARC bits here and there ? :P

I love my Z as it currently sits. Wouldn't mind a bit more umph.. but that goes with just about anything.

I may try a HKS Rotrex SC. w/ 3.9 gears and ORC drivetrain.
