Message 1. A stock NA Z will run mid 15's if running to stock specs. High 6's 0-60.
A TT will around 14 if running right. Low 5's 0-60.

2. An NA is governed at around 140, a TT is governed at 155. Without a limiter an NA could probably hit around 150+, not sure about a TT. I would guess around 170ish?

3. 2 Words: Pure Evil. He's like 7 feet tall and fits in his Z just fine. You won't have any problems.

4. Biggest problem? I don't think there really is one big common problem, as they are for the most part very reliable cars, but things go wrong just like all other cars. Auto trannys seem to go at around 100,000 miles.

If you're really looking for a car to modify and make really fast, don't get an NA Z. It does not take to mods very well, and the mods are expensive. Spend $1k (say, exhaust, intake, UD pulley) and you probably will still be running low 15's or high 14's, and under 200rwhp. Get an Eclipse if you're gonna want to run faster than that for cheap, as turbocharged cars mod much better than na ones do. Or get a TTZ, and have one badass car that is already faster than that. Spend 1k on a TT, and you'll be in the 12's. An NA is an awesome car though, and it is fast, but just not insanely fast like a TT. It's a great car for a 16 year old.
