Re: After Market Products Must Have !

exhaust and pulleys are not MUST HAVE imho...
exhaust only makes more sound, and pulleys are too much for the hp gains... not very noticeable. imho.

i would say: z-tube / drop-in k&n - rims - sways - $$FAI$$

04 / BO / G / aero / splash / prem / perf / cc / 22%tint
z-tube / k&n drop-in / Eclipse AVN

Clear corners......50
New fog, clearance and side lights......depends, but about 100
Injen exhaust.......800
Injen CAI......800
Front Lip......don't know price but lets say 500 painted
Eibach Pro Kit.......400
Hotchkis Sways.....300
Tint.....depends where you go but 150

Total is $3100.00 and you get everything. Looks and power. This is definately the way to go in my opinion.

Heeeeellllllloooooooooo people.......

Re: After Market Products Must Have !

pulleys not very noticable?

i respect your opinion but accorrding to my HO's.. haha.. it is probably one of the best mods I have... I don't care about the hp increase but the quicker revs and smoothness that came with it was worth every penny =)

Re: After Market Products Must Have !

1st thing on the list should be wheels & tires. You can't drive around on stock wheels! What are you crazy?

False...you can drive on rainy days w/ a CAI. I wouldn't suggest driving thru deep puddles without a bypass valve though.

LMAO! Perfect reply unless you would have said "use the search function".

<font color=blue>The above statements are only my take on the issue. If you disagree with anything I typed then you are 100% right!</font color=blue>

Re: After Market Products Must Have !

there IS also controversy that underdrive pulleys severely lower the lifespan of the car... i wont wanna take that risk on my G35c, although i put them on my 98 Accord V6 coupe and the car feels a bit lighter (revs quicker), but not very worth it compared to the price of parts and labor... if it was worth it, Infiniti would have put them on the car to begin with!

Re: After Market Products Must Have !

Clear Bra: $400 (can't believe no one mentioned this)
Clearance Lamps, Fog lamps, other license plate lamps: $50
Retrofit 2003 6MT Center Console: $300
Aluminum Pedal Set: $70 (can't believe no one mentioned this either)
Huper Optic Tint: $250
Hotchkis Sway Bars: $250
Lowjack: $600
Front Lip + Splash Guard: $450
V-1 Radar Detector: $350
10" Subwoofer: $300 (Basslink)

That's $3000

Spend the rest of your money on Safety Driving Schools, AutoX schools, Track Schools. After that, then you can decide what type of performance mods you need. My guess is dedicated track wheels/tires, perhaps coil overs. As far as power output is concerned, I think the G35C is plenty fast. I might add lightweight flywheel and clutch, but that's about it.
