Nice. I'm 100% positive it can be beat for a daily driven car, it's just a matter of no one has done it yet. Looking forward to it.

No. The driveshaft is good for over...1000whp I believe. The half-axle shafts is what breaks. Driveshaft Shop has a stage 2 and stage 5 half-axle upgrade. The stock is good to 617rwhp so far, SGP Racing's customer car has that much hp and hasn't done anything to the half shaft. I imagine you'd want it though if you are going to take it to the track and launch it hard.

I'm having SGP racing build the motor.. they are one of the only places I know that uses a torque plate when boring out the cylinders.. CJ motorsports does as well. This is something I believe is almost necessary as it will allow them to bore out the cylinder under torque load.. if they dont do this there could be minor warping.. not a good thing runnin near 7k rpms...
Kyle from SGP has been extremely helpful.. i've asked him so many questions already and he has answered all of them, from experience I'd reccommend SGP but many people will recommend CJ motorsports as well. Either or
Im having Altered Atmosphere tune my engine... not only are they closer... MD vs. TX or IL... but they have already developed things for the z as well, so they have some good knowledge of the car... Haven't heard of anyone building an engine from there yet... but i know they can... speak with Dave Shiroma... he's currently helping me out now.
One more thing.. MRC motorsports is in NJ too... go to www.racemrc.com... i dont really have any experience with them but they did daking350z car a long time ago when the FI systems first came out
