Question does it worth it??

hi guys

i saw today a new modded 350z rodster i asked around for it and this is what i got:



engin True Dual Exhaust System , it adds 30hp's more

and



350Z TECHNOS ECU , it adds 15hp's more

and some other tiny modification are done that adds 25hp's
so the overall is 70hp

Stillen 350Z Rear Spoiler

NO!

I think you could buy a 2004 or a new 2005 when they comw out and build it up like this for less than $63k.

30HP from exhaust? not likely.
$63000 in what currency? too much if in US$, done in North America. But we don't know how expensive things are in saudi arabia.

xo4ox,
30 hp is WAY too optimistic for an exhaust. also, you cannot add the hp claims to each other to get a grand total gain. it doesnt work that way.

are you talking about US dollars? if so, even $57,000 seems expensive.

hmm...not quite understanding you....

can you convert some of the money figures to US dollars? or did u do that already....?

65k USD would be a lot in the US. You start getting into porsche carrerra price range...

but in terms of value, the Z is a great bang for the buck....

well the roadster with the leather interior runs roughly $37,000. about $1,500 for the ecu and exhaust.... $3,000 or so for rims and tires.... body kit (largest variable). stillen spoiler... guessing around $350. so without the body kit about $42,000? just say the body kit is $3,000. $45,000. so if you are talking about US currency, then yeah 65K is a lot. of course my numbers are just rough estimates, but you get the idea. not sure what "tiny" other mods you are talking about, but doubt they would add $1,000 to the total.
