Hey guys. I dont own a G or a Z for that matter. I have a Mazdaspeed3 but my roommate bought a 05(?) 35 sedan not to long ago, and already has an intake and exhaust and im looking for a gift for christmas. Around $200 was my thinking. He is going turbo'ed but I dont want to get him something for that. He has some kit all picked out. I wanted to get him something he can use now and after the snail is dropped in. I was thinking a short throw shifter or something like that. What should I be looking at? If a short throw is the way to go which one? I dont want to buy him a crap piece and i dont know crap about the Gs. Thats where you knowledgeable types come in. Little help?

 

get his headlights or grille painted

 

He did that already. Did himself looks good too.

 

buy him rays lugs or springs

 

Ya shift ****, rays lugs, or Kics NeoChro lugs are good for about $200.

 

If your gonna go with a short throw shifter, go Rouge.

 

Yeah he has springs already. You guys got the links to any of this stuff? Any other thoughts?

 

Get him a Motordyne 5/16 Plenum spacer if he doesn't already has it.
That should fall under the 200 range and he can still use it when
he drops in the turbo's

 

Cool do you have a link? Also i cant find rogue shifters for this car only BWMs.

 

Get him a turbo timer or a boost controller.

You can possibly find it cheaper from one of the vendors

I would suggest against boost controller or turbo timer depending on which turbo system he is planning on going with.

Possibly boost gauge/oil pressure gauge/wideband(AEM Uego)
Would be something more appropriate if its boost related

 

He found this thread the ***.

 

Hahahahaha.

First step, don't post on a forum that you're "roommate" is already an active member of.

Hahahahaha.

I guess I know what I'm getting for Christmas, now...

 

LOL since you already found this.. just make a wishlist here so he's job will be easy

 

haha busted!
