Message So! I wanted to leave some positive feedback, and to say thanks to Harry @ Ztuner.com who did all the work on my car, and to Greg @ Specialty Z for the parts. They both were very helpful during this upgrade. Harry is an amazing mechanic. He knows the Z like the back of his hand. He is the best mechanic I know in Florida especially around Tampa area. Greg is truly a great person to do business with, and he has never let me down in the 9 years I have done business with him. Just knowing that Harry completed the upgrade and Greg provided the parts is an awesome combination. It has put such great confidence in me by just knowing that.

What I upgraded:

JWT 530bb turbos (Stock boost @ 9.5 psi)
SZ Flywheel + Sports Clutch
SZ 3.0" Downpipes SS + O2 Sensors
SZ 3.0-2.5" Mid Pipes Resonated
Still stock cat-back.

When I got my car back last Monday, I decided to drive to Ft. Lauderdale to visit my Mother. Saturday, I hit 500 miles after upgrade, and everything is smooth, quiet, and just perfect. The car feels new again. The turbos sound absolutely amazing during spool up. It really does sound like a jet now. Being that I have a stock cat-back the car is still quiet which I love.

During my time in Lauderdale, I was helping my mom shop for a new crossover.. She still has her '95 300zx. She had an attitude of getting out of the low riding car. We tried the BMW and Cadillac. They both had terrible interiors... it looked cheap, and the BMW was to expensive for its worth. Then we decided to try out Nissan Murano. The price was good, the interior was perfect (The Japanese just have it down for interior).

However! We saw a Black Cherry 370z Roadster outside just staring at us and we both had to drive it! It was just beautiful! So we test drove the 370z and I let it out.... and boy is that baby is quick and beautiful inside. It was such a huge improvement from the 350z. My mom fell in love with it and it looks like shes going to be getting another Z instead of a crossover haha...

It actually made me a little jealous because I had to get in my car afterwards and I decided to do a second gear pull just to make sure I was faster lol... and i was =D... I was a bit anxious to boost my car anywas being I had to wait to break in the clutch.

ANYWAS! Thanks Harry! And Thank you Greg! I wouldn't have it any other way!!
