jnaut ran a 12.2 N/A ...... think about that!! lol...

and i will be 12.4-5 by the fall... but Jeff's car is an 11.2 or better car and is nasty fast. searching youtube i saw the m6 jeff raced beating a lambo ... I cant imagine rolling up next to a gallardo and beating it in my Z , that would be VERY fun...

all it comes down to is money... do you have 12,000 for the initial build and do you have 10,000 if your motor blows? You should have 20k of money that wouldnt hurt you to spend if you go the F/I route on your 370z...

What I may do is buy my brothers 350z for 7k (03 Grand Touring) (just take over his payments, that what he owes) and start a build on that car while enjoying my N/A 370... You can pick up turbo kits or SCers for cheap on the 350 boards.... IMO the 370z is too new and a good NA car and I wouldnt want to risk needing a 10k motor if it blows... vq35DE's can be had for 800 and I can build it and drop the motor in , than buy a turbo kit and build a 350 for a fraction of the cost.. Still making really good power...
