APS TT your car. Don't know how much you can get for your Z, but it might be similar in cost. My friend Brian's Z just put down 460rwhp. It ran 11.7@120 at his previous power level of 430rwhp. I was definetly impressed at the OEM feel of the APS kit.

58,xxx miles with 4xxx miles on the engine and turbo kit for $31,500?


FUCK THAT!

Dont you wonder why he wants to sell it with only having 4k miles on the turbo kit.

Keep your babied 350z, I rather buy that off you than this G35.

That Z is sweet and Crazy_Sellout does have a point but that G is HOT! You gotta go with your gut on this one. This isn't a daily driver is it?

Kinda, but it wouldnt see snow... I use my civic almost exclusively in the winter...Jesal does have a point.... almost 60k miles vs. my 17k....and I do like the bodystyle of my Z better, and I also have some goodies like navigation, leather, etc... the only thing I'm missing is the turbo...and I dont even mind going ST instead of TT... 400WHP is good enough for me!

ALSO.. this pic doesn't make me want the car anymore:

^ Once tuned right, you can safely go up to 450 or so on stock internals with the APS TT. Tuan has has Z dynoed at 500hp on STOCK INTERNALS, Stock flywheel/cluthc, etc!! When I said "400 is good enough for me" I meant that I can get the ST from APS, tuned to around 400 hp....

nice car you got there. personally, i think you should keep it. in the end of the day, YOU know what YOU did to YOUR car. Turbocharging an NA engine and selling it after only 4,000 miles is juust a little fishy. just my opinion.

nice avatar, btw. John The Revelator > *

Keep the Z man. Most likely the owner of the G is looking to dump a car that will blow up in the near future. Save your money...you're wife is going to need it

Whats with the benz style wheels on the Z? I havent see that before, it looks good. I wouldnt buy that G unless i knew the TT kit was done right and that motor doesnt have massive amounts of abuse on it.
