AMS MIKE: I will do my best to be there! I am not trying to compare your "Honda" with my G35. I also know that I spent alot money and I am not proud of. But, I have a nice car that it is very fast making over 800rwhp and I try to have fun. Hopefully we can meet on the 11th.

Dude.. you're reading your Dyno wrong. I think you sent it to someone over at the my350z forums and it looked to be lower than 800 hp

 

Can't say I would spend that much on fixing up a $35K car... but I won't sit here flaming on you either for doing something i can't do even if i wanted. You seem to be happy with your ride...it's all good. I can only imagine what it feels like to drive a car with that much power. You seem to have a pretty good attitude even when others are flaming on you. That's all good.

What ever happened to your supra? Still got it or sold?

Oh, and any advise on how to make enough money to spend $100K on fixing up my G? I'm always looking for an edge.

Best of luck selling your car... maybe the new GT-R will be much cheaper, easier, and better to mod to your HP hungry a$$. Or you could just use that $100K to get the limited ed. Nismo GT-R R34.

 

Down_Shift: My Dyno (at ebay shows 700+hp and 850+lbs. of torque). I set-up the car that way to be driveble in the streets. I can put the car to over 850HP, but I don't need that much power until I ugrade the fuel injectors to 1,500ccs and the HKS ignition system.

I sold my Supra to a kid in Chicago. His dad bought the car for him for $125k in September of 2001. Hopefully he still alive (lol).

I regret now, but then it was the best time to sell that car. It was right after the 1st Fast and Furious Movie. Built by the same company that built the 650hp car in The Fast and The Furious. I got over 100 calls in 2 days when I put the car in AutoTrader. It was cover page car in many magazines. I miss that car alot!

Good luck on the sale. Just kind of curious, will you be freezing the FMIC?

 

No. I am in California. SGP is a good shop, but lately they had some staff problems. In addition, they take more work then they can handle. My car was in their shop for a very long time. I like Sean and Mark, but they're overwhelmed with work and I don't think the quality of their work is there.

I live in Beverly Hills, but my car is currently at Violent Racing Shop in San Diego. Debating whether or not I am going to put the Titan V8 engine on my G.

 

Just put the Titan V8 on there and shut all these guys up man. I have no idea why they're not giving you props or anything. Damn people, can you just appreciate the fact that your G is not the fastest one out there? Or is it that you don't even own one and are mad that someone spent that amount of money on it? For real, stop being so disrespectful to this guy.

 

i've been tracking this car on ebay - this is the 3rd time the car has been listed, hasn't it...

you need to drop them ugly rims (sorry, bro, these suck) and get something better looking - and get the side sills on the car (without them the car looks... egh...).

 

^
Seriously, not trying to be rude, but those rims are awful.

 

That is what make other people wanting to race with me. They look at my 20 inches DeCorsa chrome rims and they think that will beat me in a race. The weight actually helps to keep my car in the ground. I have another set of Volks. I drive once in awhile with the other rims. The car has been in ebay for the 3rd and last time. I had offers up to $40,000 in the car. I won't take less than $50k. I invested way too much money in the car. I know that I will not get 1/3 as much as I spent. $20,000 over the value of my car is a very fair price in my eyes.

You should go and post over at my350z in the forced induction section. You'll have a blast talking to those guys.
