Re: what should he do?
well but how much miles are we talking about with a twin turbo for $9,000..... I would say about 100K turbos would loose power by then and you never know how last owner drove it....
well I persanoly bought a new Z ingine from http://www.stillen.com/ for $4.500 it's a turbo then when I got it I droped high-tech parts in it, and a new "Sport 600' turbos. The whole ingine with parts and turbos went for about $10,000 well he might keep the stock turbos (-$4000) so what I thought is to buy a car with about 200K(about $3000-4000) and get an ingine and high-tech parts(for NOS or for less problems and longer lasting life) that's about $6000 so therefore he will need an extra $1000-2000 and he will have a new ingine and saved up cash....but if he gets a car with a100K then he might save the money for new parts cuz the old ones are goind to break soon.

who what? stillen who?
first off, why did you buy an engine from stillen? how many miles on this engine?
my friend has 150k on his original stock turbo's and he runs 12's all day long....and he beats the heck out of them too. the Z's are good for very high milege....dont worry about milege..
many guys in my area have 130+k miles on their TT's and they are still kicking it hard.
