They got some nice mods (Agency Power) that EVO X at the moment and it seems to be really enjoying the mods when it comes to making power.

The only problem I see if you can't afford to force induct your car a new EVO or STI is going to cost you so much more money in the long run you could easily build your Z. Personally, I understand what a lot of the FI people talk about with building it completely to turbo it, but there are also so many Z's out there that make good reliable power with just connecting rods, pistons, ect. and the turbo kit with like a fuel return and some other chit. I personally think you can spend like 10-12k and have a pretty reliable turbo Z.

Idk, I've been contemplating getting rid of the Z for another factory turbo'd car or AWD and turbo'd, but I know I can't afford it in the long run. The GSR Evo's are finally coming down in price and I've been looking at them as well as Turbo MR2's, GT-4 Celica's, Swapped 240's, WRX 2.5 RS with STi conversions, 300ZX ect. I just don't know how I'd feel about going from an 03 Z back down to like an early/mid 90's car, though the stock 300ZX beats up on the stock 350Z.

New Subi is fulgy imo, if I were going to change, it would definitely be the Evo.

Man keep the Z, IMO it looks better. Just save up and go FI later.

Or hell, you can juice it safely with a true 75hp shot for under 1k.

I don't think the dealers carry the EVO X on the lot. I think you have to order one to actually see it on the lot. At least that's what they did for the EVO 8's and 9's.

Soleil, I'm not trying to be rude, but you need to make up your mind. Lol. Trade in the Z or keep it. Out of those three vehicles the Z is the best looking IMO. I think the new EVO and STI are both hideous. If I were to get an EVO it would be the EVO 8.
