Oh boy. Hey aaron, im looking at turning the boost up. From what I understand the breaking point on stock block is 420 tq plus or minus? I should be around 360tq and 410hp or so on 11 pounds and should be fine on the street all day, im just wondering about the track. Its a whole nother world out there and you beat the hell out of your car. You think I would still be ok or is my money better spent somewhere else?

wow that's a good deal, wait a minute.... WTF it says its a MR in the Paragraph below but in the description for manual it says 5sp all MRs are 6sp, but I'm also pretty sure that you could only get the color red in the MR edition

Aaron, haha if course thats not what I meant, lol, I see what u did there! Truthbof the matter is, for any "nismo" youve paid so much for aesthetics, and minimal perf, it seems odd to me to be debating the TT Z on bragging rights...lol
Prob does get to log more miles per year tho! Jk, lmfao

the tq numbers should be fine. keep them under 380 or so and you should be good. If you are going to the track, I would look into keeping oil temps down. I don't know your full setup, but I would look into increased capacity oil pan and an oil cooler.
I wouldn't build the block unless you have to. and yes greg, if you do, do it, go twin turbo

either way, if by chance the car is clean title and in good mechanical condition, that is easily 4-5 grand less than what I would expect a car with that mileage to go for. Given it is likely salvage, I wouldn't pay more than 14k for it
I know what you were up too! You gotta get some day laborers out there man, OUTSOURCE BROTHER, come rip with us, if not for yourself, do it for your BABY.

just got the news on my evo's KW coilovers.... they have to order new tubes.... of course from Germany, so we are looking at 10 days optimistically. I really miss driving something fun. my evo has been down already for over a week and the weather isn't going to turn any time soon to get the Z out
