Should i trade for a Z?

SuperMiguel

whats the highest whp/torque achieved with FI on stock block?

That is a broad question, have seen into the 600whp range but that will not last on a daily driven car. For a reliable everyday car with proper support mods, good install, tune you can be in the low 500 daily without much issue.

Your line of questioning leads me to think that you should move to a car that comes stock with a turbo. Unless you are simply bored of the appearance and handling characteristics of the genesis, the amount of money you will spend going FI (10k - 15k+) could be better spent on simply buying a fast FI sports car from the beginning.

Congrats on doing your research ahead of time and welcome to the forum.

That's true. You're close to M3 pricing at that point.

thanks all for your recommendation...

The reason i want to change, is because i want something more appropriate something that looks more serious, IMO the Z looks a bit more elegant than the Z

Now the other car i had on my list was the 335i, they have style, but the inside suckz, stock twin turbo than i believe can be easily pushed to the 500whp

Basically what im saying is, i want to get rid of my genesis, and get a GT-R but cant afford it, so looking for alternatives :P

The Z certainly has it beat in the looks department.

I think the 335i would be a better fit if you are chasing horses.

I was going to post the exact thing. Modding the Z for FI when coming from a pre-piped car will shock you. $15,000 in a 2.0gc coupe will round out your mods. $15,000 here will get you the parts, but not the work or suspension tunes etc... lol

I would strongly look at FI cars like the 135i and evo or look into a Z06 vette, unless you wanna drop $30,000 in a Z? lol

Let me add that 30k in a Z will build you a car that will be hard to defeat on a track, but it will cost you.

If they just fixed their transmission issues and swapped out iron suspension parts for QUALITY aluminum ones, we might be fvcked on a track??? The engine on the GC is underrated basedon shytty transmission build quality and overprotective tuning. Its a group of small things holding the GC back.
