Message "Calm the hell down and think about this for a second. There is still a lot of R&D to be done."
I know, the point of the post was to show enthuziasm and hopefully spurr some R&D.
showing enthusiasm and sounding like an unknowledgable newb are two different things. And the latter does not help anyone.
exactly how am I an unkowledgeable newbe? I dont recall any technical statements in my post. I only state what I know for fact, or what I hope to see come true, and I differentiate between the two.

"You say that TT guys "looking down" on you doesn't bother you. All that you have proven here is that you have a major inferiority complex for no damn reason."
:No, I just have a need for speed bro, just like you! Rembember, Im ZenthuZiast. Grab a dictionary if you need to (dont forget to take off the first Z).
:Then why did you buy an NA?
Tons of reasons. Availability, it was clean, S-L-I-C-K T-O-P, and some more below...

"You act like all of a sudden you can go out and buy the kit off the shelf at Pep Boys and install it in one day."
No, hopefully Z1 will sell me one in a year or two though. And then I will take a weekend or two and put it on. Who knows, maybe I will just drive over their and we can use my Z for R&D! Awesome!
:In a year or two. And you're spooging over this now? Install it in a weekend? Do some research, unless you are a very skilled mechanic (which you may be) it will take longer than a weekend. This is not your normal "bolt-on" mod.
Granted, it may take some time. I am spooging at the idea, to the reality. I want to see this happen. If it takes longer then so be it. I like working on my Z.


"And trust me, TT guys don't care. We have the power you long for already. And if you can keep up, great. But don't expect to."
If you didnt care, why such a long post? And why did you even get involved it a thread titled "Calling All N/A's"?
And why wouldn't we keep up? I guess you didn't see Z1's post bro.
:Because I wanted to read the thread. I saw Z1's post 'bro', and I am very interested in the goings on there, it's good stuff. But I am a realist and don't get unnecessarily excited over things. You may be able to keep up, and thats great. You would no longer be NA.
Isnt that the point? My car will still be cool to me, and I will beat you off the line assuming we have the same HP/TQ specs. I love getting excited, it reminds me why I love my Z.

:"Because after all the cash you drop into this project, you'll have spent WAY more than we have."
:Eh, so what?
:I'm glad you have tons of disposable cash to spend where you please. I for one like to get the most out of my dollar. That meant buying a TT in the first place. It saved me the headaches, downtime, and money that you will have to deal with.

HAhahahaha, no downtime? no headaches? Um can you say HICAS? Can you say turbo rebuild? can you say if you took the money most of these guys dump into their Z's and got a supra you could probably get better performance? go to [ www.mvpmotorsports.com ] and check out that Supra. Want good value for your $$$? LOL. Its being an import enthuziast all about wasting your money on you car? you sure as hell aren't winning any events in it.


:"Don't mean to burst your uphoric bubble here, but shut your yapper until things get sorted out to a greater degree. You are riling up a bunch of people who don't know what's involved in this and creating a lot of phantom excitement."
:YES! I am euphoric, but I wont shut up. I hopefully lit a fire under someones ass and we will get this project rolling so that someday I can buy a kit. The more excitement, the more fun man!
:Why don't you get euphoric with the right people then? Stirring up this pot will give people who can't think for themselves, ie newbie, teenage NA owners, the idea that they can just slap some turbos on and go. Then we all have to deal with the "I blew my engine up" posts. I'm glad your excited, but if you want to show your support, do so to the people who know what they are doing, Z1 and Ash.
What, and miss out on the fun? If the "newbies" are as stupid as you claim, so what? I dont care. Its for the rest of us.

Any more clarifications I can make???
:Nope, you've clarified everything I needed to know.
I still dont think you get it man. Maybe if you owned an N/A you would have as much fun as I do. A great psychologist once said that attaining our desires is usually very dissapointing, especially in comparison to the desire itself.

Don't you wish your car was as cool as mine?
wait...it is?
Go to hell then!
