The easiest route would probably be going with a tt front clip.

Just do that and buy the 99 parts(fascia, taillights, Xenon headlights, wing) IMO would be better than going through the hassle of importing.

ya importing would suck dude. Plus depending on what the item ways and what you payed for it you have to pay like a 3.5% duty at the wharf thats a pretty hefty charge. Yeah i would agree with everyone else just be ready to spend the money for the JSpec parts there not inexpensive. Xenon headlights alone 1500. JDM is very expensive but looks very good when done.

first of all if your gonna spend all that money to put on turbo's, you gotta get a hell of a lot of things that can add up far more than buying a front clip to convert it..
like intrercoolers, piping(engine bay and exhaust), the turbo's, tt ecu, ect., ect., ect. and after all that, your gonna be running 5-7 lbs. boost because the non-turbo z engines are high compression. their built to preform without turbos.
just got with a front clip bro.. then dress your car with what ever they sell to make it look like a 99. lots of shops out there like amz, zimotorsports, stillen, conseptz, ect. lots to choose from
and hell, you might score some parts off the clip like the jdm fenders and the bumper.
before you buy the 2+2, try looking for a tt z imo. all you need is 2 seats..one for you, and one for your honey.
good luck with your research

more weight on its *** means greater chances of skidding. you need a "wider" wheel base for traction at the turns which the 2+2 isnt

Welcome kenz.

I know zeorymer from 3zc is all.
i've been slacking some over there, i haven't really been browsing over there much if at all. Just seems kinda repetitive n boring for the most part.

What's the front/rear weight distribution on the 2+2 vs the 2+0? I believe the best handling/race cars run 50-54% rear weight.

a lot of people rather have a 2+2 for auto x because of it. but...

IMO... the 2+2 is about 9" longer, same wheel base. longer car will be a bit harder to handle, but who knows if 9" 's will make a differance so i guess it breaks down to weight distribution....

YOU WIN!

i typed piitb at 1990fairladyz's thread.. i guess too much horse play, cause were allways ragging on each other on the forum, but the administrator got tired of it i guess, so i was set as an example.
