Very nice indeed, good job Sharif

N/A power is so nice, if you could get that thing to pump out 350rwhp, that would be SICK!

I hope it is going to be a gutted-out track car

don't remember exactly anymore...think it was around $10,000. Way cheaper than than going FI with a built motor....going FI without a built motor to me is a waste of money since you will have to rebuild the motor alot sooner than later.
Adding the cost of a motor build on top of a turbo setup with all the accesories andtuning makes building NA motor is alot cheaper. You just don't get the ungodly hp numbers with NA but you do get reliability.

Not at this time...I'm done with the Z....got everything I could get out of it and still have it streetable. Only thing left to do is a 13:1 compression build and crazy wild cams but its not worth it to me. Thinking about buying either a Porsche GT3 or a Z06 Vette and build those up.

I kno I'm going to get flamed for this but after driving a GTR I'm not fond of it at all....in my opinion its overrated. Its too heavy and you definitely can feel the its weight around a corner...if it wasn't for all wheel drive that car wouldn't turn. Plus the weight makes the tires go away really quick. To me the GT3 is a better car.

I could not agree more now that I've had the opportunity to experience driving the GTR on the track first hand. That is one bad a$$ car!!!
