Coulda just bought a second car. They only have 307? Seems low.

I guess the 240 killed your desire to get in there and beef em up

 

actually 306, haha.

the 240 didnt really kill anything, i wish i could have finished it.

but with the amount of money i had already put in and the amount i still had to put in to finish i realize i could just buy a near new car with the same HP and handling and it wouldnt be all rusty and have a gutted interior.

the Z slides amazing, has no problem breaking traction and is super predictable which makes it really easy to control.

 

Yea I have driven quite a few, not sure why but I liked the g35 better. The 370 is amazing, they made a huge leap. Make sure you get some deep deep dish rims on the back, that is so sexy, it's like driving Tori Black around town.

I know how you feel on the 240, after a trans swap, apr, and new turbo I'm going to end up spending more on my car than I wanted. I regret getting this car over the vette, but the price was right and I thought I could make it to 500 before spending too much.

 

I like the G35's too but after comparing the 2, the Z was a better choice financially. Used G35's are overpriced imo.

I want to mod the Z but i think im going to focus on paying it off first. I want to have it completely paid off in a year.

500HP in the tC? Meh. Im not into the whole high power FWD thing. All my buddies drive hondas and theyre all about drag racing. No thanks.

 

G35s are pretty cheap here.

Yea, don't mod a car you owe money on... That's just retarded. Rims however can always be taken off very quickly. Paying it off in a year is a lot nicer than an awesome set of rims however

500HP in anything is fun. I would rather have a RWD but I didn't know how bad it was because all I had before this were trucks. Never had that experience of driving a high hp fwd.

 

driving a low hp fwd car is bad enough for me.

 

wrong wheel drive

Next project is going to be a GTM. I already have a few parts ordered... Need 20k for the kit and I gotta find an 02-04 z06 that's wrecked, or just wait till it floods and there will be plenty.

 

yea working on cars is cool and all but when you work 50+ hours a week, family, friends, girlfriend, sticker business, errands, etc. There isnt much time to work on cars. And theres no way in hell you even have time to enjoy them. haha

 

Unemployeed... It's the life

 

haha, good luck!

 

Investments pay off very well, just have to know how to spend and save. Plus having no bills is pretty awesome. I have not had a steady job for a good two years now and I have enough money to mod my car and still have some fun money. I did however lose my house, my Tahoe, and my bike... Just gotta do one more year to finish off my degree then back to the working world; would be awesome if I could go back to work for BP but that wont happen. Without getting a job I could have 20k to spare in a year or two but I might get a job eventually.

Also no gf, the greatest way to keep money in your pocket known to man. You know it's true.

 

Haha no gf ftw! My girl and I just broke up...I can already feel the extra money rolling in ..seriously though she was pretty cool and we are still good friends..but it can be a drain money wise sometimes lol

 

YES!!! girlfriends do know how to drain specially when you live with them. i would have had ish turbo already well now its a ex. 5 months later and i got a new project that fell into my hands yesterday cant wait to start
