Hey guys, been spending the past few days reading through the thread. So I have an 04 G35 6mt.

This is NOT a REVUP engine, correct?
So I would better off getting a 5/16 iso-thermal plenum spacer and I don't need the MREV2?
What else could I do to make the look/stance nastier then it already is?

Current Mods:
20% light metallic tints
JDM Clear Corners
Type N Rear Diffuser
R-F Splash Guards
Z-tube + PC
GTR Taillight overlays
Tein S-Tech springs (dropped about 1.5 in)
4300k OEM's w/ Bi-Xenon projector beam with LED mod headlights
JWT clutch and flywheel
Stock exhaust, for now








I really like how it sits, I was wondering what else other bolt-ons besides the MotorDyne spacer I should look into to increase performance at low-mid RPM's given I drive in a city/suburban location.

Any recommendations for mods or exhausts?

The sport bumper, OEM 05+ rays and the pinstripe are also mods for that car.

P.s. rid your life of those overlays.

I bought the car with them on, personally I think the headlights and taillight overlays compliment the car very nicely.

How about the 5/16 spacers? I wouldn't need MREV2 right?

yeah those headlights dont compliment any car.
stock 06-07 projectors are the best for a reason.

hfc and a good exhaust of your choice (its refreshing seeing someone new not mentioning a muffler delete)- then go get tuned.

I was planning on plasti-dipping and glossing the grille black soon as well.

Considering the stock 06-07 headlights run at around $550 I think I'll just stick with these projectors for now.

Also a muffler delete is ridiculous, raspy, and illegal, I'd prefer to make my car sound deep with little to no raspy noise.

As for tuning, is there a specific kit I need to look for or how does tuning work?

I'll most likely look into some Berks HFC's sooner or later to make the stock exhaust sound a little nicer.
