hahahaha

wanted to relax, got a new job that I need to travel to, getting married and my fiance wanted to be able to drive this one... these typicaly run as much as .5-.7 quicker in the 1/4 when modded...

My 120mph trap in my 135 at 12.0 woulda been an 11.4-5 in auto... its a nice tranny with paddles just like our Zs and it has been proven to take a TON of abuse with hardly any known failures..

BUT I think im going to be buying my brothers 03 350z with just under 100k as soon as he wants to get a new car, hes been offered very low amounts and if he cant get anymore I will just buy it at his trade in offer and build that up as a toy with a TwinTurbo kit... not a definite but certainly a good possibility, and that will satisfy my stickless car issue, lol...

But so far 10 days in , I dont regret it a bit... its a joy to drive and the DS mode in paddle mode is very impressive.
