Lol... Hell no. I Look for simplicity. Not into all this reinventing the wheel BS. You're welcome to do whatever you want with your money. No hostility here. I just really wanted to understand your logic beyond the insurance aspect because we have different perspectives.
From my perspective, just buying a 350Z outright won't be as fast as what you're building with comparable mods, but I bet it sure as hell will be more reliable and last longer. That has certain value to me. The expense of pairing that motor with that chassis to gain a few tenths of a second more speed doesn't have much value to me since I'm not doing any timed races.
And the $11k for your swap? You didn't answer if that inculded boost or not. I hope so, because an N/A VQ swapped 240 will still get it's lunch ate by the typical SR with gt2871r for much less money. If you're in a state that crackes down on SR's, I can kinda see, but you're in TN. Are the cops really giving any fucks about some SR's out there?
Again, I'm just trying to understand. Because I would have mated the VQ35's trans to an SR and called it a day.
