You have to educate yourself first and do your own research to avoid getting scammed as a NOOB. Scott Bush at Relentless Autosports preys on NOOBS just like you. We've seen it all before.

Like I said before, if the GT40 was an easy fitment, you would see a bunch of threads in the FI section about it. A simple search through the FI section before making this thread would have answered your own question and saved you from the NOOB hazing.

One of the biggest irritations on here is NOOBS who expect to be spoon fed answers and who fail to search through the wealth of info in the FI forum before starting a thread.

Lesson learned for you I hope. Chill out, grow a thicker skin, and move on.
Ok, granted I may not know as much about my 350 as most of you on guys on here, but, I'm not a moron. I know enough knowledge about cars in general to know when someone is totally bsing me. The guy was 100% straight up. Now im not gonna sit here and tell you the whole conversation I had with the guy. But I can definitely tell you he was genuine. So you can sit there and tell me I know nothing all you want. If I knew everything...I wouldn't have asked....

And if you are saying I didn't search, you are wrong, there are no threads on a GT40, which is why I threw the question out there to you guys.

There is no lesson to be learned....

^ Which should be a clue genius. Again, if it was an easy drop-in fitment or commonplace in our community, you would see a bunch of threads about it. And if the guy that you spoke to at that shop was truly knowledgable in the Z/G platform, he would have advised you what we have told you about the use of a GT40 for your stated power goals.

^^ Riiiiiiight... No lesson to be learned.... Stubborn NOOBS....


r0mey should just lock your thread.

LMAO!!

I think Eric has pretty much said everything that can be said.

The words arrogant, disrespectful, and ignorant come to mind when reading this thread - is this the next generation of Z/G owner?

God damn the poor resale value on these cars

So who votes on a thread lock?

Thnx.

+1 about the dropping values of the Z33 & G35 leading to a new generation of Z/G owners that leave much to be desired and who are dumbing down the collective IQ of the community.

You got the story wrong...the guy who wanted to sell me the GT40, is not the guy from the shop. The guy with the GT40 is a friend of a friends...the guy from the shop actually said stay away from the GT40 and go with an APS TT or Greddy TT

BashaZ, you're in a no win here (in case you haven't noticed), F/I regulars are like the Borg..... resistence is futile.

Step 1:




If not, then proceed to Step 2:



Or, you can just make it all go away, hit the delete thread button and.....
