Its not just that I found the torque underwhelming, its the fact that its extremely high up in the power. I found myself always have to reach for it, frustrating. The Z is great for what it is but considering that we are the "evolution" of the 350z and HR motors are showing great torque gains after F.I. whereas we are not (damn you VVEL), I guess in hindsight I wanted a little more. 350whp sounds much nicer than 33x.xx whp. My CF pieces weighed less than my stockers, not saying the OEM pieces aren't already stupid light but CF was still lighter, add a braille batter and I don't think I could have shaved anymore without going full racecar.
