I put 22,000 trouble free miles on it with an ATI Procharger.
Then put in the JWT TT and have 6,000 on that set up. Drive it now about two or three times a week to work, in LA traffic, no problems. That is with an ATS lightweight flywheel (10 lbs) and three disc carbon clutch. Very happy car.

I drive mine everyday that it doesn't rain/snow. The car has near factory driveability with the JWT clutch and I've sat in traffic in 105 degree heat with ZERO overheating issues on the stock cooling system. Stock longblock for 13K boosted miles....

Mileage has nothing to do with a 350Z blowing up a motor on boost.

Everyday....except snow....ATS Twin Carbon Clutch....drive it to pick up dinner or take the girl on weekend trips....

I once spoke with an owner of this sick 1999 Lambo Diablo Momo roadster...car was missing the front badge, wheels covered in brake dust, rock chips, etc...he said it the best..."if I wanted to waste money just looking at it..I would have put on a suit and taken a cab to the dealership everyday...you don't buy a ticket for the concorde to watch it take off from the airport"
