Default Sold Twin Turbo Rx-7 To Buy My 350z

HEY EVERYONE. I JUST SOLD A TWIN TURBO RX-7 (TERRIBLE CAR) AND PICKED UP MY 2003 TOURING 350. BEST CHOICE I COULD HAVE MADE. WITH THE RX-7 I HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS.

Thanks,
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I might start with adding to the car. I plan on changing the brake rotors to slotted. Do these cars take to a supercharger or turbo add on well? Thanks

I am finding that changing the oil on this car is a PIA. 12 bolts to get to the oil filter. Its all worth it.LOL

Congrats!!! I had a 93 RX-7 with an upgraded single turbo as well. It also gave me nothing but problems. I was afraid to go on long trips for the fear it would break down LOL. The 350Z is definitely more reliable. Enjoy it and welcome!!!

I feel you traded my twin turbo s4 for the 350z and never looked back. Nothing but headaches.
