I've installed a couple of kits. I used to have the turbonetics kit on mine too. I dont go to Topeka often and if I do its just right off the highway where the mall and all the stores are at. The car on the front page of my site is my Z.

What set up are you thinking about going with?

Sounds good. I have to get my new bumper painted first. I went off the track on my last track day and tore up the one I had on.

I had the turbonetics and switched it out to go with a twin turbo. I did a lot of autocrossing at the time too and I didnt like the lag. It comes with a pretty big turbo. I was thinking about the STS kit though cus a few guys that autocross said it doesnt lag to bad. Nothing wrong with the turbonetics though. That was just my personal feelings on it.

damn sorry to hear about that bro, but you run hard there is always a chance somthing is going to happen, you going to be interested in selling the turbo kit? and if you ever need any help down at the shop let me know i am a certified auto mechanic and im really good with doing pretty much anything, always looking to work on cars, love doing it. and just let me know and ill make a trip down always looking to meet other tuners.

there was a black turboed 350z in town today, pretty nice from what i saw, burning the back tires off down topeka blvd is not my style tho but i guess if that what you want to do then thats what you want to do lol.

I might be going to import faceoff. Not sure though. I thought I posted up about my turbo kit but I guess not. I dont have it anymore. I sold it about two years ago. I'm not going to stay open for much longer since I'm about to go back to Iraq around January. I'm going to keep the store open online though while I'm gone if you ever need anything.
