Try Titan Motorsports..www.titanmotorsports.com

I'm too poor to get into the F/I rhealm and haven't bought any performance parts in almost 2 years. However, I have seen ars done by Titan and have watched their shop car (supra) at the track in Bradenton and on various internet movies. They have a good reputation among Toyota people. But you can call and ask for references regarding Nissans.

Titan is a good shop for the turbo kit install. As for buying the turbo kit and rims, I would check with Vendors on this site for the best price. You should be able to install the rims yourself.

Racing Zone is good for rims and tires but I would let them do any installs. They try to get you "in and out" as fast as possible. They dont take the time as if the car was theirs and for that I would never take my car to them. Try Secret Services in Largo, Fl. They do a lot of 240/Silvia swaps but they also know about the 300Z's and the 350Z.

Zfever and XATracing in tampa are two very good performance shops, there is also Running Great Automotive which isnt a performance shop but they do quality work and will install anything you have.

Located in Orlando, but worth the drive. They've worked on even Hulk Hogans Supra! Word. They have experience with FI Z's.
