alrighty, 92 z32 NA auto with 137 on the clock, black leather interior is almost perfect, two small dings in pass. door, motor runs awsome except for a small idle issue, has brand new hancook tires that stick like nothing else, just gotta track down a set of JDM fenders to make use of the blinkers lights in the fenders...

You got the car in those pics? Cuz that Z32 in the pics is a twin turbo... or at least has the front TT valance & rear TwinTurbo logo.

it was a TT before my freinds boost controller decided to start shorting out and ultimately sending boost levels to 28psi and ending the motors life, but she's got a clean motor from an old persons car..

I was about to say....I think that's real TT, not a copy. why would he swap in an NA motor? TT motors aren't THAT much more.

You might be a redneck if...


You swap a twin turbo motor for a stock N/A.


You replace a 5 speed with an automatic.


You put a CB radio in your Z car.

im propably going to make something outa the little tray behind the seats, the antenna is going to be a magnetic one so that i can pop the hatch and throw it in there, also the scanner is going where the headlight aimers used to be.

so wait....DD and nitrous. Are you just making this up or have no sense when modding? This car is a stock NA and the first mods you're doing are a CB radio and nitrous?

wow...please forget nitrous and change it back to TT. youll be sooooo much happier that way than with nitrous. cb radio can be done as long as it is invisible to the eye, but still kinda weird.

well, i guess nitrous could work, if you want to replace the n/a engine with a TT one as soon as it blows
