I would trade you too and I am closer!!

Really wanted a GT-R but just can not afford it. I do plan on trying to buy one in a few years when it comes down in the 50's.

The 370Z is a BLAST to drive though. I love it. Also have a 1990 300ZX TT and it never gets driven now. )

its nice to see that deep down, the Z still has some qualities that the GT-R just doesn't.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

The paint job is horrible. Since my car is black I can see how crappy the paint is. If I had known how crappy the paint was gonna be I would have went white again.

Other then that the car is great.

I remember you, Nitrouz, from the 350 forums. You had the craziest 350(in a good way). Stroked TT if I remember correctly putting down insane numbers.

I had a 'basic' APS turbo setup and I gotta say I miss it also. I'm rolling around in an S4 DCT nowadays. Might have to add another Z turbo to the stable again also.

Only complaint I have "coming from a 400+whp evo" Is with a 500hp RWD I can't just put the gas to the floor and go... at least not until 4th gear. I guess thats part of the fun, feathering the gas , keeping the back end in line ect. I'll be going with some 12in wide rims out back this spring with some sticky tires.. that should help

That's my point. My GTR goes 0-60 in 3 flat on a bad day with no launch control. But it's not fun. It's just mash and go. I need that borderline killing myself feeling...with my old Z, I just mash the throttle at 80mph in 3rd gear and I'm going sideways with a cloud of smoke going 100mph down a highway looking at the median. That's fun.

wow... your 350 was incredible. nice job why did you get rid of it??

2004YZFR1 · 11-30-2010, 11:45 PM

Wow that was one bad *** 350!

mick · 11-30-2010, 11:47 PM

i afraid you'll be bored of the z once you have it (since it happened with the GTR)

Juno · 11-30-2010, 11:51 PM

We did the same thing a couple of months ago, and haven't regretted it yet. I don't think I will regret it until the first time I take the Z to the track. But driving the GT-R around town every day was boring, and I don't get to the track nearly as often as I'd like. Enjoy the new Z!

ThoriumHotdog · 11-30-2010, 11:52 PM

Get the 370z! I'd like to see what you do to it after seeing your 350.

Probably not too much...500ish rwhp will suffice this time. I just ordered a 458 Italia as well for those weekends I feel "exotic".....just hope it doesn't burn with me in it
