Cool 2005 Infinity G35 Coupe

Watsuuup....I just picked up my G35...only 24k on the dash...Very clean... I don't want to do too much to the exterior.. maybe a carbon fiber lip...i really like the rear diffuser look..I've got my eyes set on the HKS Hi power Titanium exhaust.. any suggestions would be awesome.. if you have pics with the suggestions that would be great too... V35 all day baby lol

Does the same recommendations hold true for the 2007 iForged wheels?

Welcome! Make sure when you get the HKS you replace the resonstor with a Magnaflow x pipe. Problems with the hks piping not aligned properly

I really want to go turbo eventually...i also want to stay as close to street legal as i can (i.e keep the cat/no test pipes) I've heard that the plenum spacers are basically the only mod besides forced induction that gives you real numbers.. i would also like to focus on exterior and suspension and wheels first before any big performance mods...i like Stance..would like to know what everyone thinks about these...

If you were to put the magnaflow x pipe in place of the resonators would that not sound bad (ricer)? I put an off brand x pipe on after the resonators and kept them, and it sounds great.

PART# 11386 for 2.5" or 11385 for 2.25" pipes http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...=main&id=10392
You'll want the tru-x perforated core. The vendor b2autodesigns sells them in the classifieds section.

No, it will sound awesome and get rid of any rasp that the HKS knockoffs tend to have. Plus Fast Intentions uses it and that's probably the best sounding exhaust around.

It replaces the HKS h-pipe and resonators.

I got tired of searching for a picture, but here it is on my FI exhaust...

Mrev2, Spacer, z tube, k&n drop in filter, hfc or test pipes, catback exhaust, then tune. Sway bars are also worth it.
