I don't ever want to go turbo, I just have this feeling that if an engine can easily blow up from user error, then I'd manage to destroy it before the first tank of gas is empty. Plus the added cost of turbo components.

If you don't want to go turbo with either car, I'd say the Maxima has the more power potential than the 7 unless of course you do a bridgeport or something nutty like that. SGP Performance should be able to hook you up. The VG30DE can put out about 300hp n/a. However the RX-7 would always out-handle it. As far as modding the bike, isn't it a bit small?

thanks for the info.



I'm happy with the size of the bike. I drove my dad's sabre 1100, and it fit my body better, but it was actually slower (we've raced). Unless you're talking about top speed, but I don't want to be driving a cruiser at 120+ mph.

The maxima has a lot of potential, being the same block as the 300ZX. I agree with DJ Rotor on all counts.

I have that bike, just an 03'. Its slow.. My old n/a setup would rape it..
