I'd stay away from megan racing(poor quality), no underdrive pulleys(lightweight flywheel has bigger gains and is safer), no cai(z1 ztube and K&N will yield same gains), get a true dual exhaust(won't need a ypipe), motordyne ART pipes, don't get headers unless you do cams too(ppe long tube headers show huge gains with cams), and I believe the cobb AP only works for the 03-04 ecus but I could be wrong. Pretty much everyone here will tell you to go with Uprev for tuning... and sway bars will help a ton more than strut bars for handling. Sways are probably the #1 mod for the price with these cars. It's night and day difference

Hey yall im new here. I just ordered some new rims and tires. Dont have a car yet but im buying another G when i get back to the states. I had a sedan when i was 17. Just a quick list of starter mods, also i wana get a coupe, any imputs on what i can change out with other brands and stuff let me know. Opinions welcome...
Megan racing coilovers (BC Racing has been good to me- not the best... not the worst)
Megan racing catback exhaust (Stillen was probably the best sounding I've heard)
Megan racing headers (delete unless cammed like mentioned)
Y pipe (reccomended brand?) (delete)
Test pipes (recomended brand?) (BERK Ceramic coated)
Injen CAI with bypass filter (hmmm?)
Unorthadox underdrive pulley kit (already addressed)
Cobb tunning accessport (out of the G35 / 350 game now... no / little support. Osiris instead)
Front/rear lip & side skirts (recomended brand?) (authentic, whatever it is)
Short throw shifter (recomended brand)
Strut bars (recomended brand?) (hmmm)
Sway bars (recomended brand?) (Motordyne)
Motordyne 5/16 spacer
Motordyne Mrev2 (might not be needed depending on the year... minimal gains non rev)
Just throwing out some ideas to see what people think, and other ideas? Just doing some N/A work see where i can get.

Megan racing coilovers - what spring rate and version
Megan racing catback exhaust - why?
Megan racing headers - why again?
Y pipe (reccomended brand?) - Motordyne Duh
Test pipes (recomended brand?) - If you don't want to pass emissions (unless you have secret squirrel tricks) but I would go ART
Injen CAI with bypass filter - yeah...no
Unorthadox underdrive pulley kit -Dude...no.lightweight pulleys not under drive
Cobb tunning accessport - might be cool
Front/rear lip & side skirts (recomended brand?) - keep it a G
Short throw shifter (recomended brand) -TWM - because I need a guinea pig
Strut bars (recomended brand?) - Relentless front - no idea back.. you got subs bro?
Sway bars (recomended brand?) - Hotchkis
Motordyne 5/16 spacer - Duh
Motordyne Mrev2 - Well ok sure why not Mr bank roll. you would free up more power elsewhere for less money..no fronting tho i would get it
