Yea, need to add that as well...eventually...when money comes more available

 

My Overlays would be a nice touch .

B@t

 

yeah ur overlays are pretty dead sexy :P

 

Ya blue, I was looking at your stuff earlier today, but it was hard to see through my phone, I was kind of interested in the roof overlay, would have to get the windows tinted darker first maybe, I love the look of Patman's car...

so much stuff, so little moneys

also, going to debadge it this weekend, all except the fugi maybe

 

keep the fuji its awesome

 

Check the classifieds for 5/16 MD Spacers. Tend to go a bit cheaper. I'm taking mine off this Sunday if Shane's willing, probably going to have LightsOut's HR Y-Pipe (from 06 350z - one of the originals in the thread years ago) on sale too.

 

Just got the lip in tonight, will take it to go get painted tomorrow, hopefully have it back by Tuesday, cant imagine it will take long to paint

 

^^ some places take their sweet *** time

^^ anytime buddy... anytime

 

forget the intake. save for HFC/TP's. they'll give you a nice power gain and amplify the sound of the exhaust. It'll sound sick

 

Nismo .

Noob or not it's great to have some organized goals and you're off to a great start.

In my opinion for short term, I'd do a K&N drop in with the ztube (or maybe the stillen airbox), otherwise try the rev-up airbox, and a 5/16 spacer, or even their ISO copp 5/16 spacer, I recommend the HR y pipe it has a little better flow and also gives a nice deeper tone than our stock Y pipe, along with HFC's or RTPs, after that search hard and if you can listen in person to various exhausts on our coupes and find one that you like. IF that's as far as you want to go for engine mods- -give it an Osiris tune.

Then for long term,
Wheels/tires that is all on your own since it's personal taste, many on here will recommend Volks, Works, Weds, D2Fordged, HRE, etc- but if you don't want to drop serious money on some decent wheels, you can still find a set used in the Marketplace as people here switch our wheels more often than underwear.
For projector headlights I highly recommend just going with 06 projectors, so far the new aftermarket ones with the little leds and such to me really just take away from the cleanliness in the front end. But again as with many mods- to each their own, right?


Just my input on your list so far, good luck!

PS: I didn't offer front lip advice since I'm not sure if you have sport bumper like me or the non-sport bumper. Either way I'd hit up StrafeAutomotive since they have some great deals going on right now for both.

 

Thanks for the input.

My ztube and stillen box comes in Friday...lip should be done today or tomorrow.

I've been researching wheels like crazy and I know I don't want to drop tons of money into them. Ill just keep searching the market for a good deal. Its my everyday car so they don't have to be flashy.
If I go from 17s to 19s will I need anything special done to the springs etc? Lowered?

I will go with the 06 lights just cause of cost.
Glad I don't have a wife anymore to nag at me about buying this stuff...

 

one of the first things id do is springs or coilovers whichever one u can afford. esp if ur gonna get wheels ur gonna need to drop it so it doesnt look all goofy.
