What size are the tires and wheels? They look off somehow, like not enough offset on the wheels or tires too short.

I have the HKS muffler and it doesn't sound ricey at all (the same muffler on a 1.8 L 4-cyl Honda definitely would though). Super easy to install as well.

<--- Was thinking about the coupe HKS exhaust. I haven't heard the rear section on a sedan, so I'd trust the opinions of those who have one. I fail .

You're probably right that the coupe exhaust sounds different than the sedan... a lot of that probably has to do with the coupe's midpipe though. The sedan HKS rear section with the rest of the stock exhaust system sounds very nice on my car without being raspy or farty at all.

I agree, and no that never came stock.


If you want to be different, try carbon fiber or return to stock.






look into a full nismo aero kit.

agreed

that is a big no-no, unless you are a grandma or non-enthusiast.

03Sg35 said it right about the tint not covering the 3rd brake light. I get a little peeved every time I see a nice tinted car w/ no tint on the 3rd light

I see that you're from Tampa. It's nice to see more modded sedans around FL. There is a meet planned in St. Petersburg on the 16th, and another one in Jacksonville on the 23rd (which I'll be going to). Check the Florida G35 Club forum for more details. Hope to see you around at a future meet

Yeah I expected more of a drop too. Not sure if later on I will get a diff kit or just bigger tires.

The braklight bugs me too, i wonder If I could just go to walmart and buy some tint, cut out a square and put it there.

I'll check the meets, not the ones coming up becuase my car is nowhere near done. Maybe in a month or so

Yeah I put them on when I bought the car before I modded anything. Then when I got the rims I took them off but in the process I scratched up the OEM pillars so I put the chrome back on. And Im not too crazy about them but the CF were too expensive and just seemed to have a different black than the rest of the car.

The areo kit is $$ and not really my thing. Too fast and the furious for my taste.
