Message	ok, but look at our forums!! i keep reading about blown motors everyday!! i'd love to say that our Z's are more reliable.. but seeing our forums is not very encouraging!! then again, i realize that cars with 600hp and above ought to be real trailer queens and my measly 400hp will beat them in a real street run (turns, handling, low end torque... something well rounded) and that those are tremendous HP numbers by any standars! i guess its a bit of internet HP envy, but i just feel like with a supra and 5K worth of mods, you're hiting at least 500hp!! who'd have guessed i'd end up driving my dream car?!??!
