I bought it with 22,000 or something last july. I'm parking her this summer in the garage. I hate how many miles I've put on it.
Why are u so worried about putting on miles? This isn't a classic or a Lambo. Go ahead and drive it all u want is a 7 yr old car

as for exhaust i wouldnt buy stillen or hks, they charge out the asssss for being name brand, im going with fast intentions most likely, or the x02 hks clone. i wont even buy stillen struts cause theyre more expensive for no reason. goin with the gt spec, cause in my travels and style of driving my G...it has too much body roll hahahaha that needs to be fixed, and look at spacers too everyone recommends 20mm front and 25mm rear. if nothing else measure with a ruler from the wheel to the fender wall edge, i could personally go with 0mm all around but im doing 20, 25
thats my .02$ haha sexy ride ps

Breathing mods:

For starters, do an intake, people have been bashing lately, but the jim wolf tech pop charger with z tube is a good intake, plus it makes a cool little whistle when shifting.

Then do a 5/16" plenum spacer from motordyne, this will give you some gains in the middle of the power band

I'm not going to recommend an mrev2, simply because it isn't worth it for nonrevup

Then, if you're looking into exhaust stuff, if your state does not do e-checks then get resonated test pipes, if they Do do e-checks then get some high-flow cats.

Catback exhaust systems are a plenty, find what you want and go for it! I chose to get a motordyne shockwave v2 catback, waiting for it to arrive (CANNOT WAIT lol)

Drivetrain:

1. ACT flywheel and clutch (Jim wolf is an alternative option)
2. Rogue Engineering Short Shifter
3. W/e shifter you like, I'm hunting for a nismo titanium ****

Other than that, forced induction is the next step, the ACT flywheel/clutch (from what I understand) can handle boost up to 500hp I think.

If you ever consider forced induction, you almost have to go with test pipes, from what I've read the pressure and heat can ruin high flow cats (which cost 500+)
