i personally, given the financial opportunity which you apparently have, would say fuk z's and fuk rx7's if i have the means to get an alpha kit for a '12 gtr. my mouth waters when i see a gtr with an alpha 12 kit. the power, launch, grip is insane. a 600whp gtr vs a 600whp z is a landslide win for the gtr (even on a roll) because of the aggressive gear ratios. the z just cannot compete, unless you are big on the raw sports car feel which i have to say is quite numb in the gtr. i don't own one but i did spend some time flying around in a friend's gtr and it is to me like some reviewers say is quite numb and disconnected from the road, like you're in a videogame. the only issue is that you lose the rwd, which would be an issue for me since i love getting slideways. but then again, i could probably afford a drift-tuned s14 on the side if i have the means for a modded gtr. my 2 cents
