I daly drive and track my z. I did not like the stock clutch at all. (It's kinda vague floating in the middle of a huge dead range.

I put in a tunable clutch pedal and now LOVE my clutch (300 bucks or so)

The car is loud on OEM tires (and others too) it's a butch to fix but dynamat can help a lot.

The powerband on our motor is great on the track. Harsh? I don't know. Awesome? Definately.

If you really drive your car hard ( like I do on the track) the z is a no brainer for the money. If you just cruise around town? Who cares really... To me, it's a real sports car that needs just a little push (mods) to go from a pretty little cruiser to a real beast.

Here is a list if great upgrades
Clutch
Flywheel
Brake pads and fluid
Oil cooler (some years)
Upgraded (not VLSD) diff

Do that and you'll be looking at a lot of Porsches an beemers in your rear view ( at the track of course)

I think of mine as a very streetable track car.
