Seriously though I am looking into a custom single kit centered around a Turbonetics GT-K 850.
Yeah 400 to the wheels is weak sauce for a daily driver...but when you want to play with supras.....

No, sorry. But this thread is the reason why I cancelled my VB plans and decided not to touch my still stock drivetrain until Hinson officially launches this. I will buy you a bottle of your favourite aged spirit if I end up following your direction.

Nope. I have had Noah's car here with me ever since SEMA. It has not realy been driven except on and off the trailer and a few blocks here and there in Las Vegas at the convention center. Since I do not want to take any responsibility if something breaks or goes wrong, I am not about to drive it around just to get some video for you guys. Hahaha, LOL

Its ready when he is. Just needs to send the truck to come get it and ship it back to hinson, I guess. For now its just resting and hanging out with my Z, my G, my truck, our Time Attack Z, and a couple other random visitors.

U know oddly enough I have a sick Nitrous Set Up being installed as soon as the car gets back to 'BAMA. I will then see how much $ I can find in my sofa cushions and try to go FI from there. I will 100% be boosting this car....i just may need to start saving some $ first

Why would you want to ruin a Z by putting this engine in? Thats like taking a Porche and putting a corvette engine. Hmmm I guess if thats what you like but its a disgrace especially for the Z Forum.

This isn't a disgrace to a Z forum. The modding world is progressing and evolving into really new places. I am stoked to see guys like noah paving the way for future tuners

The disgrace is the price you have to pay for a forged VQ done right.

^^^ Exactly! Personally, I am waiting for pricing from Hinson and will decide from there (as I think most of us are).

If you're saying your Z is comparable to a Porsche, you have a lot to learn on this "disgraced" Z forum.
