Stillen Supercharger, Kawasaki ZX-6R , or 08 G35 Coupe

I have reached a complete hault with my G... Not sure what to do. I have come to the realization the simple bolt on mods (ie. headers, exhaust) don't do much as far as power. I figured a supercharger will my best go if I wanna go performance. I have also been wanting a bike for a while and fell in love with the Kawasaki ZX-6R at a bike show. Lastly, I like the new G35 concept and it WILL DEFINITELY have more HP than the present coupe models. Whatever I do I need to decide now in order to start saving up money. I plan to make my decision by next summer. I am really not sure what to do, at this point.

Anyone else contemplating the same options?

BTW... I currently have a 05AT Coupe

same situation here...

though i already have the motorcycle...

the gains from the stillen would be close to the new coupe and reliablity would be less.

everything for me pointed towards 2008 coupe... or lotus elise... in the end the 2008 coupe won.

ppp

Potty Pants ~~~> If I was in your position I would just wait for the 2008 also. BUT I WANT THAT BIKE!!! LOL. You are def. right about the reliability also.

Silly Henry~~~> That is alot of savin up man. I dont even trust myself savin up that much money. Truthfully, if I can save up that much money I can get the 2008 G35 Coupe and get the bike. LOL

I was in your position last year, except I have an '05 6MT coupe. It's a lease, and I was really bored with it ( I love to modify my cars ).

I decided to buy a bike to have as my go-fast-toy. I loved it at first, but every damn time I go out, someone pulls out in front of me or cuts over into my lane without warning. I don't enjoy riding on the street. If I keep riding, I will be hit. If not, I will road rage on someone and end up in jail.

I have started to modify my G35, and enjoy that much more. My bike is up for sale. Want to buy it?

What are the numbers for the 08' coupe? I highly doubt it would be anywhere close to the Stillen Stage 3 given what the VQ35HR in the 07' sedan makes.


I would go for the 08'.
I have the Stage 4 and a 600RR. I hardly ever ride my bike because I always want to drive my car. The SC is a blast but so would be being one of the first with an 08'.

Are they using the same engine in the 2008 model or is it a new engine all together?

WTF... LOL.... This whole post. LOL First off there is a reason why not everyone rides a Ducati. THEYRE EXPENSIVE FOR NO REASON ! First off, I have never seen a 600cc Ducati. I believe they start at 749. Secondly, thats a extra 4K to get one as opposed to the Kawi ZX6R.

Secondly, a Piper Seneca. LOL. When I learn how to fly a AIRPLANE, maybe

However, you are right. If you pull up with a Piper Seneca on your block. That is PRETTY GANGSTA !!

although ducati's are nice bikes they have some of the worst reliability records on the planet. also, think about this... it takes a 30,000$ duc to keep up to a 10,000$ kawi.
