Im currently in the process of speaking with Sam on getting the nismo some new "accesories"

I gave up on the pursuit of just building a NA car. to be honest, theres not enough people making the needed parts "heads, crank, cams, pistons, sleeves, lifters, rods, intake.... blah blah" and if u pieced them all together it would cost just as much to just buy a 30k+ built competition engine from GTM.

that being said heres the plan at the moment, within the next 6 months i will be buying one part at a time of the following.

GTM Motorsports*::*PERFORMANCE UPGRADES*::*GTM TWIN TURBO ULTIMATE PACKAGE

GTM Motorsports*::*PERFORMANCE ENGINES*::*Long Block Packages*::*GTM Stage 1 HR / VHR Longblock

GTM Motorsports*::*CLUTCH - FLYWHEEL*::*HD CENTRIC METAL SLAVE CYLINDER UPGRADE FOR OS GIKEN CLUTCH

GTM Motorsports*::*ELECTRONICS*::*Gauges*::*GTM 52 MM 3 GAUGES PAKAGE-BOOST,FUELL PRESS AND AFR-

GTM Motorsports*::*CLUTCH - FLYWHEEL*::*Twin Disk Kits*::*GTM® Spec Exedy® Twin-Disk clutch assembly For HR 350Z/G35/370Z/G37

this is silly to mention, but the car is still up for sale as well. but i got my new job fixing lasers so i dont care if i sell it or not lol. im going to get trading it in at the end of this year for a brand new nismo that i will be puting these parts on.

reason for this is, my interest rate on this car is 18.9%. and even an increase of total amount initially owed "example, old nis 30k, new nis 38k" if i get a normal interest rate like 6% even if the price owed goes up to 38k i will still owe LESS on the car over the span of a 5 year payment plan.

so this 09 nis is in a unique position right now. its in showroom condition and now has 18k miles on it, washed and waxed every weekend, nismo oil cooler installed, nismo floormats, nismo trunk mat, illuminated kick panels, and nismo car cover K&N air and oil filters, royal purple oil since new. 14 day pay off is what im asking. but this will NOT be the car that gets all this new gear lol.

Anyone have any suggestions for something that i may have overlooked? perhaps some equipment i might need that i missed?

final goal is a street drivable 550-600 WHP car. not for hard racing, just random weekend fun.

I want to keep the car at much as i can with the OEM look. i wouldnt even have the boost guages if it wasnt kinda needed for a car with so many ponies running around under the hood. need to keep track of where they are running :P

Its also going to get a big break kit once i find a nice 6 piston kit thats not decked out with stupid looking colored super car calipers with a rotor that looks like a saw blade. its cool sometimes, but like i said i wanna keep the car looking oem as much as possible. so the only non oem things you can see without opening the hood will be the exhaust tips, the seats "getting them made of leather because thats how nismo should be!" and those stupid guages.
