Sure did man, but I can't complain... it was truly a blessing in disguise. I ended up getting a better job, for a better company, for more money, and I get to play with more toys. Only six weeks in and I have an iPhone 4, iPad 2, and part of a very big project and the best part... plenty of Internet cords

Let me know if you're in GA, you'd only be a few states away from me. Oh, that means your *** better go to ZdayZ too because I plan on going next year.

TTYL, gotta go play in the Masters

But even with the trusty iron block 4G63, you won't get those sort of numbers on stock internals and drivetrain man. Which is what I meant by the playing field being level at a certain point. Yeah sure, it is relatively cheap to get EVO's to 12's/11's (like I stated earlier) and yeah you can make 400 AWHP rather easily, but after that, the Z and the EVO are even cost performance wise.


And you have to realize that you don't see many all-out performance oriented Z's out there, simply because our community is different from the EVO's. Most of our community are more concerned about being ''hellaflush''. It is NOT that the 350-370Z isn't capable.
No offense, but I don't think you have a clue when it comes to Evos. Also, the performance per dollar will ALWAYS be in favor of the Evo.

None taken. And I'm just stating facts.

I hate the way the new EVO looks, everything else about the car gets a thumbs up, but the looks...dear god.. I say keep the Z, of course, we are on the Z forum.

^It would be nice, if MR came with a proper 6speed manuel, instead of the paddle shifters. Same beef I have with the GTR. I know the 5speed is built tough though.
