Really?? Well let me see...It's right here in my pocket (que Tommy boy scene)

The 16k so far has been the turbo....hood...body kit,etc etc etc...

Beach front property sounds really nice right now, Washington is a little cloudy and wet.

IMHO I would say an almost endless amount of money , patient's and a little stupidity/crazy . 10k to go fast for a very limited time is well not worth it for most people .The car has its own faults already (over heating , icemode ,fuel starvation, VVEL ) for track use thats why no one tracks a FI 370z . but if you want her to drag or just limited spirited driving then go for it . Other wise there are better platforms out there . big V8 , evo, sti etc .

I wouldn't count VVEL as a fault at all. As far as the other issues that people are seeing with serious track use, they have documented workarounds and some can be mitigated/eliminated.

For the OP:

Whatever you decide to do, take a moment to plan it out AND plan for failure. That way you can get back to normal without much downtime.

Well i really meant vvel isn't (cracked ) but i wouldn't count vvel as a bonus either ,It does cause the motor to run HOT ( yes ,oil cooler ) and for FI I would suggest a new radiator . i just wanted to say for someone who wished to mod their car and do some parttime track time I would not tell them to buy a 370z IMHO . IF you want a street rod with minor track use then its fine or more track time means no FI .Thats pretty clear from most peoples experiences not all but most . I think when you read about the Z and see all the TT/SC out there you make think that there are a lot of TT/sc ' Z's tracking and racing with little or no issues (and that is not true ) its alot more black and white than alot of other platforms

True. If I ever let my NISMO go (and that will probably be never), I am looking to get my hands on a Ferarri F360 Challenge or 458 Italia (not a fan of the F430). I hope to be reassigned to Italy, so I'm looking to get either a R34 GT-T/GT-R or F360 Challenge (Twin SCs make that car a beast)
