the next big 350z mod....

But modding isn't about what makes sense. We need more pople that are willing to try things like this in order to forward our cars into the future of the modding community. Everyone loves to "poo poo" these ideas but then they are the first posting the thread with the link to the 350z with the "NEW GTR ENGINE"...
i have found a low milage gtr engine and awd tranny from japan for 3600 it comes with the twin turbos ll the wireing and the ecu. i have a fabricater helping me and will hopefully own one of the first awd 2007 380 ztt. im doing it just becouse it dont make sence. i believe that if i just go get the twin turbo kits i will be like everyone else modding is about being different going places no one else would dream of or dare going.

i dont see that either look at how much money they are asking for the 350 and 370z and then look at the GT-R that would be crazy if that was the case then if would make people just swap the car for the power and not the car. The key to selling a car is to make money off of the product that is why they give cars kicker sound systems and aftermarket turbo kits to keep people from messing with the car from the factory.....
