Default If you won the lottery...

...but you had to keep your Z or G, what is the ONE modification you would do to it?? I was just outside looking at my Z and thought the first thing id do is find an awesome custom body shop and somehow, someway turn my coupe into a Targa top. God that would be nice....anyhow what about you guys??

I'd keep the Z stock, buy a HUGE climate controlled garage and buy SEVERAL other vehicles to fill it.

For example...

You don't need the lottery to do that. Someplace does it already for like $3500. There was a thread about it.

He said one thing... But if you won the lottery you could pretty much do whatever you wanted, . I'd twin supercharge my Z and totally build the engine. Carbon fiber the whole car and make it the fastest Z ever. Then I'd buy an R34 and build it to about 1000 horsepower and use that as my weekend car. The Z would be my daily driver, .

Hard decision...

Perhaps an engine swap? RB26DETT vs. Supra 2JZ-GTE (either would be fully built for big numbers).

I dont know...just thinking creatively...

If I won the lottery I would:

1. Get the R-Tune/S-Tune stuff put on my Z just for the track days.
2. Then I'll buy a Nissan Titan (with a loud exhaust) just to tow my Z to the track.
3. Buy my dream house with a lift in the garage just for all the stuff I'll break on the track.
4. Buy a dog for the front yard.
5. Buy a 2008 Skyline GTR for my daily driver.
6. Invest the rest of the money so I don't have to work for the rest of my life.

Now if you excuse me, I have to go buy a lottery ticket now.

First thing I would do is pay off the freaking car!!! Then go completely crazy on it... doing all the things I wanted to do because I never had the time/money... get the Z to about 1000 hp... then tune Sil-80... then tune Supra... then tune R32... then tune R35... then roll luxury from then on...

i would do the $250,000 military paint job.... at speeds over 100MPH your car is literally invisible and when seen from above (no madder what speed) it is also invisible. lol i dont know the price on this but i do know its tech used by the US. (not LITERALLY invisible, but invisible to radar and it appears to be invisible)somewhat like the stealth bombers...
