  1. i personally would go with the brakes and suspension upgrade. i still have the stock motor in my car, but after the brakes/suspension upgrade....it was like it was revived. handles like no other and stops on a dime. remember that straight line acceleration isnt everything (at least to me it isnt, id rather autocross anyday). Of course I spent closer to 2 grand on upgrading both :(

  2. Havent seen too many 280ZX's with NPR/other comparable intercoolers installed on them. I'm looking into turbocharging my ZX and was wondering what problems, if any, people have with their piping/intercooler fitting. I'll also be keeping my A/C, how much more of a problem have any of you had? All and any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys :)

  3. I sent my P90 head out and had it back in a couple of weeks. Give yourself enough time. If the machine shop quotes you 1 week, expect it in 2-3. For $250US my head got a performance valve job, a complete cleaning, new valve seals, all threads chased and a .010" surface plane. I was quite impressed with the work done to it.

     

    But that doesnt include the cost of valves does it? :( I'm thinking of doing complete rebuild on my N/A engine (but im rebuilding to support boost cuz I do want to turbocharge it). What do you suggest as far as valves?
