And if I ever am unsatisfied with the turbo power, then there are full kits of V8 engine swaps like the LS3 which would give it a massive amount of power, with great reliability as it comes with a new drivetrain, axles, and front subframe.
Also, side note, I seriously cannot find a 240/280Z for under $8,000. Anything under that is plagued with a massive amount of rust.

But whatever amount of money and love you put into the Z will intrinsically stay in the vehicle. It's will just get more desirable.
