Nice, should be a fun car. Doing a 600hp evo, and then a 600hp Z also, the term "more money than brains" comes to mind. lol

well when you go to shows and track days some extra power is needed. Also a change in the look of both cars. i was going to go mild with both but i have gotten Crazy deals ill post price list once its all said and done and you will see some stuff was just to good to pass up pricewise. Put it like this i have had NO core exchanges period and been under cost on everything. you do the math
