20k plus daily driver or go home.

I am either boosting in early 2016 or waiting until 2017. It looks like I won't quite have enough funds to do it in 2016. Will be on a tight budget, more than likely I will wait. All I have is a FI exhaust and 34row oil cooler. Clutch, upgraded CSC, and lightweight flywheel are safe to spend on. Suspension parts are in the garage. Front sway and SPL parts still need to be bought. 13K is not enough. You will need 20K to be in the safe zone. Another 10K for a built motor. It sucks to be so close and be about 4K short.

Yes, it is not cheap. But I learned long ago, the hard way of coarse, to just wait. |
By the way, I have had the money a couple of times already. Something has come up and dwindled the funds down. It may happen again. I hope not.

Needed mod when going FI and can be done ahead of time to save some expense when you do the turbo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
so question is really about what l's the true cost for FI a Z.
Let's tally up: FI parts Support mods Shop time Reserve for broken parts A reliable daily car How much is that? $20k? $25k? FI is like a major surgery. There's no guaranteed results. Something can go wrong either at the surgery table or afterward. You gotta have strong $ reserve to deal with potential consequences. Make sure you can take a hit if/when it happens. |
$15+, enough in the bank for a new motor and a second vehicle is a pretty good rule of thumb.
