limits of standard engine?
just wondering how far i can push the limits with my standard engine, im sure i read somewhere around 400bhp is as far as you can go without sacrificing reliability, i was wanting to upgrade to 555's but i already have upgraded tubs and intercoolers, chip, exhaust and induction kit so i musn't be far off that mark, i want more power but dont want an expensive repair bill!! :(

God Damn Nerve Pain GRRRR
i still get pains in my shoulders and hips after hitting a wall sideways at around 80mph in my first Z, sometimes so bad i cant lift my arm or i struggle to walk, had to stop goin to the gym because of it, feels like me joints are going to explode, just glad am still here, only survived because i wouldnt wear my seatbelt with it being on the door, car hit a signpost and burst into flames after it had hit the wall "luckily" i was buried under the rubble of the wall after being thrown out :rolleyes:
