I know, its only a 6 month deployment but seems to be dragging by slowly. I'll be back around the end of March.

Did you ever do the full wrap on your car?

I already have an AEM intake on my 06 at coupe, have bout $300 to spend.

Looking for a little more noise, but obviously performance too. I was looking plenum spacer? Suggestions?

^HFC's/test pipes will give you a louder exhaust and will be better for performance. The MD 5/16 spacer is a great mod too, but do you have an auto or manual?

I would replace the cats first, then get the spacer later.

New Owner to a 2003 caribbean blue g35 coupe.
Hi guys,

I bought this G from a friend as my first car and it is basically stock.

I don't know what to do first.

Any ideas and tips will help. Thanks! :]

So I plan on getting a JWT pop charger /w z-tube, motordyne 5/16th spacer and their MREV2 these will be my first mods to the g. I remember reading some where on here that you don't need to tune after adding these mods just reset the ECU. I know you will get the most out of your mods with a tune but the car will be just fine and safe without it right? I just wanted to double check cause I'm coming from a subaru STI and it was like any time you add mods you have to tune for them for the car to run safe.

Thanks guys

The car will be fine without a tune as long as its not running too rich or too lean, I doudbt it will be a problem. These cars are N/A so bolt-ons don't have that drastic of a change like an STI.

I suggest you open up the exhaust with test pipes or HFC's, then get a tune afterwards.


ANDY - mid March now
