FI or ???

OK so I'm trying to decide which is thr way to go:

Option 1: FI (TT) and exhaust (used)

Option 2: Wheels and complete kit/painted and installed.


What do you think??

im in ur same boat and i decided to go w/ option #2 because i realized that having FI is completely unnecessary. I feel the car is fast enough to go fast if i wanted to, and I don't race either. Sure it would be cool to have a TT especially when people ask, but the amount spent is not really worth it for me. I rather stand out from the crowd w/ the looks than to beat cars on the road. But that's me.

i did looks first and it was worth it.. everyone jocked my car and girls are like dayum.. but as soon as i stepped in my car for the first time with the twins.. it was alot of pleasure also.. its kinda hard to decide.. if i had to choose one over the other.. i dont really know.. probably kit and wheels cause if you go FI you better have more money for other **** cause it will never end.. you will have a boost craving... body kit and wheels is a done deal after the first time.. unless you are nut like me and some others who have to change up wheels and kits .. its your call

im in a simular situation buhh if u do like rims and a kit ur gona wanna do I.C.E (in car entetainment) so its ur call, driving fast.....there is no rush like it!! dangerous....yes....expensive (performance parts, tires, breaks, tickets, insurance) never ending money pit and stuff breaks *** if u drive slow u could pick up all the gurls that the speeders sped past....hahaha
with #2 you keep your warentee that means u break something u call infiniti and they fix you car, and in the mean time u get a loaner to abuse!!! If u kno how to drive ur car, its fast enough! im prolly going to go with audio and rims maybe a lip... how cool is it going playing video games in a car!!!

no questioned asked. #2

All SHOW no go.
In today's world power is whatever, you can buy a Dodge Charger SRT-8, 6.1L OHV V-8, 425 hp, 420 lb-ft with 0-60 of 5.0secs and a top speed of 165mph for a little cheaper then a G35. But you sacrifice the looks, cause the Charger looks like @ss, but its fast. So go with the wheels + bkit. FI on a N/A car would cause your problems. money spent to correct those problems could be used on other cosmetics =).

Yep, #2 for me as well. I've been amassing a huge stockpile of goodies (ICE), eyeing rims, etc. If I wan't speed, then I would go out and get a used S2000, Supra, etc. and mod the hell out of it and get the power our G's can never get with those aforementioned cars. Our engines just wasn't made to take on FI (Maybe a SC) realibly.

Did option #1: '97 Mitsubishi GSX, 350HP, $7000 in performance mods (lowering springs were the only cosmetic change) with completely OEM body and wheels/tires. The combo was ungodly quick from a standstill, would break traction at all corners at the top of 1st and gained me local notoriety as the street car to beat. I had to trounce a lot of competition to gain that reputation, because the car looked like a stock little import to most. It's nice having such a sleeper, but you have to prove that it's just that.

With the G, it's been #2 first. I get way more looks in it than I did my '97 GSX or my big block '55 Bel Air street rod, and it only has the NISMO front, diffuser and Gialla grill. I'm still on OEM 19's!! I'm going change the wheels/tires and do some modest performance mods to give an edge over the stock set-up, but that's it for anytime soon.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
'05 Coupe 6MT IP/Stone - NISMO front bumper, NISMO rear diffuser, Gialla grill. Items ready to install: NISMO headers & Y-pipe, MREV Plus, G-tube/filter, NISMO sway bars, Bat's GTR2 front overlays.

I am in the same boat and I think I am going to start with #2. Rims + Kit, the car already has a decent amount of power, so I guess for me starting with more unique look than stock is more important to me that is. all Just IMO!
