6 grand only if you’re retarded enough to pay that for the greddy kit. Those with a desire for speed and power and mechanical abilities won’t be paying 6 grand for better results.

shame on him then…the only silver 350z’s I’ve seen round here were like 60 somethings…OH wait…did it have smoked out tails, and tint all around, aftermarket exhaust? One guy that works around me IS a total tool read: hammerhead, if he was a cartoon he’d have a hammer protruding from his skull…:dunno:

On the TT 350z…yes it will cost you like over $6G’s…even if you have mechanical abilities and know your way round the engine bay…the bottom end is just not built enough to stand the boost…the VQ35DE has got to be modified to the HILT to stand it…I have researched it and read up and bantered back and forth…bottom line IMHO…it’s not worth the $ IMO to do this…I mean, even the fuel rails have got to be replaced whether you are FI or not, above 300 hp, they are not designed for it. (on the non-anniversary editions w/ 287 hp…) There are many many guys _and gals_ that have gone ahead and gone FI w/ the 350z and gone craZy, tuned, untuned, and kaboom, assuming you are not being a kitty cat w/ the boost 😃 To rebuild, figure in the cost of the FI to begin with, rebuilding is costing them upwards and above $15K? Worth it? NO!

That being said, I love my Z…boost or no boost, she’s mine and a keeper! 😃 Only ~2000 of them in my color…

i am partial to the mustang

what dealer are you ordering thru?

did you look into the insurance difference between the 2? because i saw in a previous post about the 350 z being a 2 seater and that typically means sports car and more $$

My insurance is pretty cheap on the mustang, Im sure the z wouldnt be too much more.

My ins isn’t that bad, but one thing to consider IS that it is a 2 seater. There is a ton of room in the hatch, you can fit 2 sets of golfclubs and a weekender bag and a cooler in there, but not much else. I can fit all my crap from shopping at Wal\*Mart back there…but there is no back seat to put anything in…something to consider if you usually have to carry a lot of stuff around.
