OFFICIAL "What Mods Should I Buy for my Coupe?" Thread
New Parts Help!
05 with 55,000 miles
So, heres my list of to do's
1. Y-Pipe
2. Rear Shocks
3. Sway Bars
4. Rotors
5. Brake Lines
6. Spacers
Y-Pipe probably motordynes xyz... resonated or straight?
Best deal on OEM rear shocks?
Sway Bars... no idea
Rotors... drilled/slotted suggestions?
Steel braid brake lines... ideas?
Spacers- I'm going with the bolt on ones so that the threads are not shortened.. best deal?
I'll be going down to S&R Performance in tampa to get re-tuned after the y-pipe...
i dont know which would sound better straight or resonated. currently i have a little rasp around 2800-3500 rpms under throttle.
Keep in mind currently I have motordyne 5/16 spacer iso thermal kit and lower plenum, as well as the art pipes and a z tube
Thanks guys while im on break from school im trying to get everything done!

Work over your suspension. lots of weak points here that will make a world of difference in the overall enjoyment of driving your new car. Replace LCA bushings with poly, replace the compression rod bushings with something other than stock, poly differential bushing, get some springs and shocks/struts (or better yet coilovers), eccentric toe bolts and camber kit for the rear, adjustable upper control arms up front, wheel spacers, etc. And if you have any money left, get some sways with poly bushings. don't cheap out on parts either. 

The 350z springs are good for a half inch I believe. Very mild, but could be what you're lookin for. I personally like the eibach pro kit. Still very mild at about an inch, but the spring rate is much better. It really closes that gap nicely.
So I posted this in the sedan random question thread....sorry. So sorry. Lol
Anyways
For my revup 05
Who here would condone or at least agree with me buying a used non revup lower plenum and pairing with a MD spacer...this all of course opposed to buying a mrev2 and md spacer.
Gracias

I was talking to a guy who had one and he said the quality and fit is really good..
I got one for s**** and giggles. Not the greatest fit and you'll need extra screws and what not. I didn't trust the hardware they gave me.
2007 g35 coupe, whats next
recently bought a 07 g35 coupe, got a good deal on it so i had to pull the trigger
i bought a r2c air intake, 5/16 spacer, mrev2, jdm clear corners, and had a resonator delete.
Was wondering if I should just buy art pipes for the time being until i save up for the shockwave tdx2? Read a couple threads on the stock exhaust+art pipes, looks like a good buy plus i would get better sound too right?
and after art pipes and exhaust are finished, are there any other important mods to do performance wise? i know ill prob get a tune in the future, but i just wanna get all the bolt ons done before so. prob look at doing exterior work when im done all the performance bolt ons.
