Starting with the base 300zx twin turbo.. is there much room for upgrades?

I have been reading they are not practical engines to invest much money into. Just wondering if they are worth the time?

If not what would be a good option?

The VG30 has great potential. A tuned version of this engine was in Nissan's dominant IMSA GTP cars from the '80's. There are plenty of parts available. Check out the forum.

Either one of them will fit.
