I bet and they are smog legal! If I got caught with my car in CA, I would go to prison for a long time...LOL Green peace would have a field day with me.
Basically if you drove behind me for a prolong period, your babies would come out all jacked up!
Actually its really not my fault, its Sharif he tunned it.

Well you know MoTeC has the best traction control on the market, he could always upgrade the VPro to a M800, with the accompanying options needed

Luie, no problem........we'll go for spin (check that) -> we'll go for a drive.
It will certainly not have the brutal power of your Z but it sure is a blast to drive.

You will miss the car, but will never look back. Selling my car and taking the hit was ok after I saw my money pit driving away with a new owner.
I have no problem telling people how much I spend on my car. I will never mod another car unless I hit the lotto.

Honestly though. Sell it. You will miss it for about a year then you realize you have much more money.
DO IT!

I said the same thing about a year and a half ago after my Turbo Stratus project, dump 30K into that thing then sold it like 3 months laters. LMAO I do still regret it but the money earned without worry about it was alot. I did pretty good for the most part not buying another car. Thennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn in Feb 08, I decided to get a Z and lets just say my checking account has seen better days.
But I am done now.......Maybe.....Yeah I'm done.Sell It!!!! Your account with thank you in the end. Especially when you get to Japan. What part you trying to go to I was stationed in Okinawa from 02-04. I loved every minute of it, definately a single mans dream. Fast cars and asian woman everywhere ready to get down.

Back to Okinawa! I was there from 01 to mid 05, and if you rode bikes you know who I am (IF you rode up to Hedo point on the weekends). Yep! Oki is a blast!
Stay safe! Hows the weather over there be back over there in July!
I wanted to spice things up and say...
Luie upon reconsideration you should sell now. Once I get my car back and you get beat again, you will surely want to sell it. Save yourself the stress!!
