Thanks buddy

Could you elaborate on the "risky" bit please, are we talking, too much stress on engine, driveline components etc Not so much to much stress but MORE of course. If it`s not tuned properly it`s not likely to last 5 minutes. You also need to factor in other upgrades such as suspension, tyres, brakes. Making a stock 350z pushout 400+ hp is ok but if you actually want to drive it all the previously mentioned parts are a MUST, I have done 5 Rx7's buddy, so know the pitfalls and extras that are never considered over and above the engine work. A curious question but any thoughts and views on whether the auto box would be able to withstand the same 400bhp ish mark. It may seem odd but i have my reasons, its not set it stone that i want an auto however

Sorry, this is what i meant

Hi guys, first post outside of the welcome page, thanks for a warm welcome What would or should i expect to pay for a fi'd z? Coming from Rx7's, i know the price can vary massively for single turbo conversion (i guess an equivalent mod on them. cost etc), so what sort of prices are we looking too and from

They are def not a daily driver, lol, although some guys use them I definitely couldn't but it'd be a very nice weekend toy! Its a good time to buy one, but that seems the general theme with most cars. I suppose they are holding up well for a 20 year old car, but the general feeling is they will at some point become an appreciating classic (of sorts). Most nice or fettled examples are going down the breaking route and shells being given away or scrapped. i am sure one day if i do get out of them i will think, wish i never sold it, look at how much they are worth now

That one self destructed, running a single turbo at a shade over 400bhp, i broke it for spares. I then had a pretty much standard one as a stand in and now onto my next one which is an ongoing project and not worthy of photos yet, lol. I am just having a health check on it before it goes or doesnt go to paint pending on the health check. It has an HKS Ta45 turbo, 505 hp at 1.1bar.

I then had a Fc cab, but no photos, featured in Japanese performance November 06. This was my third.

My first one from mid 2000's

Your probably not wrong, but maybe to cause some early controversy (in a polite way), it will have a lot to live up too, the Rx7 is an awesome car, hence why i have had 5. Before i bought this one my options included the 350z amongst others, but at the time i couldnt justify the price, but they have come down significantly since then

Dorset is the home of "The Bitch" FI, NOS, Water Meth etc etc - Hopefully he will stumble on this thread then, or maybe its a she

Thanks for the warm welcome I am sure i will have some questions, but trying to find the answers i am sure have been asked before via the search button. If there are any fi owners in the Dorset/Hampshire area it would be great to have a chat

A quick hello from a possible newbie to the Z world. Considering my options to get out of Rx7's, i have had 5 and perhaps looking for a change Lots of info on here which is great so will be scanning around for the next few weeks.
