Message but still, it ain't stock, and it still takes an engine pull to do what I did, a lot of time, and a lot of $$.

While the mods I did do make the car a LOT faster, after driving the 997 for a year+, no matter what I do to the Z, it's never going to come close to the handling or power of my 997 (or any modern higher end sports car). And I realized, that's not why I own the Z. I know I am getting older, but there is something to be said for nostalgia and pure awesomeness of a stock 90's JDM car (and the market agrees with me there)

I will never mod a car again, if I want more power or better handling, I'll just buy a nicer/better car (for now, the 997 Turbo scratches all the itches). That's the beauty of getting older, you have more disposable income than when you're in your early 20's. lol
