Message	If you want a TT, just buy one to start with. I've seen some nice cars being sold lately that would make me jump if I wern't already spoken for. The dealership is going to fuck you on labor, fuck you on parts and find plenty of other shit to tack on before you leave the door. Unless you have $6-14K to blow on something COMPLETELY unnecessary, I'd just be happy with what you've got. Also, buying an imported used engine may work for any particular person, but its still a RISK. Its used and may break. Engine pull is what $1100-1200 minimum from a shop? These are not cheap cars to maintain and the more complicated you make it, the more of a pain in the ass it can be. The 300zx is still a beautiful car with or without turbos. Enjoy it.
