Mine is doing the opposite. She's wanting me to get rid of the Z for a Porsche. I actually said no, I'm fine for at least another few years as I've put too much money into this car and still enjoy driving it every day I get into it.

I regret selling mine, I sold it to get a bigger car (g37). I still see the z every now and then and that's when I regret it the most.
I have been thinking of going back to a z, but now I'm leaning toward a (terminator) cobra or (gt) 500.

Them dang Rb 240s aint no joke, the power to weight ratio is what does it, i mean you throwing a bada$$ motor into a light a$$ car, i use to have a KA-T 240sx back in the day, was my 1st car. Kinda miss it. Im getting most of if not everything from motor to custom parts from RIPs Performance in NZ, Shooting for 800hp street car, would like to take it to the 1000hp street car level just so i can go down to the TX2K Supra meets and smoke some of them since they think they have it all, i would be a total sleeper until i put the pedal to the floor, would love to see there faces lol. I was thinking about buying a Supra when i was selling my Z but there is nothing in the world like hearing a 1000HP RB Screaming at 9k Rpms lol. I was in the market for a R33 GTR but the US is REALLY Craking down on Skylines, so a Rb30 Z will have to do lol

It would be nice to get with that guy again and do a re-match on a track, possibly get my soul returned back to me since he dominated my Z in his time-machine-like vehicle.
Power-to-weight, ah yes. One day, maybe soon, I will be doing a crate LS in an RX-7. I think that'll be my next project.
My wife is gonna be pissed.
