I've been lurking around the GTM site as well as reading about SC and TT kits by other manufacturers. While everyone claims some level of reliability, what has been your real world experience (those of you who have gone TT or SC)?

I love the idea of eventually getting my car to 500 rwhp which would be a blast on track days. But do these kits really behave reliably, or does making the conversion also buy yourself a future of leaks, problems, parts, and fixes? I'd rather dump $80k in a GT-R than spend $30k more to get my Z to 500 whp with appropriate accessory mods only to have it be a 'shop' car getting fixed rather than a track car being driven.

Thoughts?
