Help me choose
Well, I know this doesn't belong in street and strip, but it's the only place on this forum that I've ever posted so I feel more comfortable with it. Anyhow, to make a long story short, here's my situation. My integra motor got messed up so I bought another car, a 350z. I always liked the 350, at least from the looks. I have gotton complemented on the car on many occasions, something that's new to me, because even with all the work done to my integra, it was all under the hood, and lets face it, it's just an integra. Even when I had my camero, nobody every really said hey, that's a nice car.
Anyhow, I was in a crunch and ended up buying the Z. Unfortunatly, though, my payments are pretty high, and so is insurance and I don't really feel like I'm getting band for buck. Also, Mods are very expensive and the gain from them is minimal. I knew that before going in, but I said screw it, I'll throw some rims on it and call it a day, and if I want to go F.I I will build my own kit. Well that went out the window. Turbos and superchargers are way to expensive and from what the guys on the forum say, its the only way to go, and piecing together your own kit won't really be any cheaper, and it will be more of a pain in the ***, plus the VQ motor is really wishy washy about holding boost. Some do it just fine, others don't. I can't afford to blow this motor since I'm still making payments. I thought of adding a 100 shot, but I don't wanna rely on a bottle to be fast.
Now I'm thinking of trading it in and getting something a little less expensive, and mod friendly. I am considering a Mustang and, dare I say, an SRT-4. This is the reason I didn't give the mustang a better look the first time around. Although I think mustangs are sexy, I didn't like the fact that for a mucsle car, it only had a 4.6. Especially with the new Camero comming out, I thought the engine needed to be bigger. It's like they nuetered it so much form the GT500. I can understand that that's there high price stang, but they still could have put in the 5.4 and just left the SC and 6 speed tranny to the 500. What do you guys think about the mustang with the new camero comming out. Do you think it will hang? Does ford have any intention of putting a bigger motor in the GT? Give me some pros on buying a mustang. Sorry for the long post, but it would have been even longer if I wasn't at work! LOL.
