Message	or would cost a small fortune to make quick with factory drivetrain. Or even on a car that is traditionally unreliable with it's increased power (FD RX7 comes to mind). On the Z32 it's just a stunt to be different. Just like every fad there's a proper place but then people start to apply it to everything... IMHO. Avoid Z1 Motorsports - Hacked TT.net deleting years of proof about service nightmares, employee misconduct and lies about parts. Use trusted vendors instead! Avoid AMS Products - Killing Z32 product innovation, one quickly copied, questionable Chinese part at a time. SoCalZCrew.com - On a more positive note, come find out how we do it in the West!
