Pair of turbos on a Z - $ 1400 - sport 500's (bsic upgrade)
Pair of turbos on a 3K - $1050 - 15C's

Got to pull the motor on a Z to put the turbos in $800 R & R. No need to do that on the 3000GT. ($500)

Z injector replacement - got to pull the manifold - $500 labor) Injector cost $1200.

3000GT inj replacement ( fronts take 20 min - rear take 2 hrs) $ 250. Injector cost $ 650

Turbo back exhaust (full stainless) for a Z = $ 1500 to $ 1800.

Turbo back for a 3000 GT full stainless = $ 1200 MAX

See where i'm going here ? The 3000 GT is cheaper to modify AND maintain. Its a easier car for a novice or a semi decent driver. Don't get me wrong the Z is a great car and personally i'd rather have a Z than a 3000 GT. But most of the reasons mentioned here are plain WRONG.

This entire post sucks because it reminds me of the Supra guys who think their car is the greatest thing god invented. Well its not and neither is the Z or any other car for that matter. Please do not mislead a person unless you have facts and figures to back up what you are saying.

thank you
