Come on guy's.More people must have some opinions.So many people complain that their are not enough products and which ones there are, are too expensive.This is a good chance to see some new products at a good price.If there is no intrest,no one will invest the money to develop these new products.Again the main intrests are in coilovers,strut bar,poss camber kits,engine dress up and a wide body kit.

3-point front strut tower brace or a one piece front strut bar that doesn't need modifications to anything to fit (Oval designs)
Or even a JDM/350Z strut bar adapter
Rear strut bars (for the sedan too, oval designs)...
Better yet, a rear cross brace in the trunk
Fender braces
Lower cross brace (front and rear)
Floor support bars (like Do-Luck's)
C-pillar bar
Metal shifter cable bushings front and rear like these
Beefier sway bar endlinks
Solid motor mounts
Solid tie rods
Cold air mod for stock intake box
And since this is a wish list anyways... a b-pillar harness bar
And how about an upper plenum like the Tall Boy that looks stock?
Intelligent key system for those of us without it

What I would like...

Widebody fenders for the sedan
CF hood and trunk for the sedan
CF spoilers, CF roof spoiler (clean, subtle designs)
CF grille

That sounds good...very good. For a set of coilovers that is only 900 is less than half price of what most aftermarket coilovers are costing now.

As for new ideas...i'll get back to you but i like the idea of a CF roof for those G35s who already have CF hood and trunk.

I know you didn't mention it, but I really like the exhaust+rear bumper put on the prototype GTR (in the earlier spyshot)... But I think if the exhaust bundles the full bodykit (I assume it would be really silly to just sell the rear bumper that is so aggressive w/ stock side and front bumper) in the end not that many people want to spend that kind of money...However, maybe a front lips + side skirt + full rear bumper + quad pipe exhaust may be more affordable?

Just my 2 cents.

some after-market headlights would be nice but i doubt they can make those cheap... and if they do i dont think they would be good qaulity, but there is a good demand for them

as for what i'd like to see are affordable suspension upgrades...


CAsklyine i met u more then a year ago at a car meet infront of super autobacs, i was looking at the things u had done... u were one of the first people to get an authentic kenstyle body kit in southern cali right?

but some affordable GOOD coil-overs would be nice... i'd pay up to $1000 if they were EDFC compatible... i can get great deals for Tein coil overs with the EDFC but its still alot... and out of my budget... some good and cheap camber kits would be awesome too especially for people that go for more then 1" rear drop... and also some affordable urethane bushings for our suspensions... the Nismo bushings are far too expensive... in fact if someone could offer some of those good and cheap i'd buy them right now.

coilovers
maybe a better looking cf hood
assorted strut brace's (front, rear, etc...)
how about a nice looking rear bumper?

you guys have to be realistic...price always seems to be the most important aspect. quality is important BUT it has to have an affordable price tag...it is also hard to get anyone to spend $1K plus on ANYTHING period. keep in mind that these mods have to appeal to the G community as a whole and not to just a few people.
