Picking up an 04 6MT on thursday
#46
some sort of drop, i was bidding on 06 z springs but i lost so either oem z or something else mild
HR Y-pipe
maybe a catback, don't want anything that drones
brembos or akebonos when my brakes need replacing
some sort of wheels, I have a set of kosei k1-ts 17x8 +35 from my rsx but i think they will probably look sort of small, but they weigh 15.4 lbs so I will be saving like 10lbs a wheel over stock 17s, I may just use them for winter though
possibly some test pipes although it will probably end up being too loud on the highway, my rsx was catless with a greddy sp2 catback and the exhaust wasn't loud at all unless u really got on it, it would be nice to replicate that setup but idk
tune maybe
deck lid lip spoiler
headlight blackout(internal not external..lol)
probably gonna be a slow process because money is tight atm, maybe turbo eventually..lol

probably gonna do a MD plenum spacer not sure if i should do 5/16 or 1/2: I would think 5/16 is the better deal (11HP-13HP) 1/2 (12HP-14HP) and its 66 bucks more.
some sort of drop, i was bidding on 06 z springs but i lost so either oem z or something else mild: Check the marketplace here and 350z. i wouldn't pay more than $60 for the springs only.
HR Y-pipe
maybe a catback, don't want anything that drones: Hr y pipe + cpe midpipe + hks = WINbrembos or akebonos when my brakes need replacing

possibly some test pipes although it will probably end up being too loud on the highway, my rsx was catless with a greddy sp2 catback and the exhaust wasn't loud at all unless u really got on it, it would be nice to replicate that setup but idk
tune maybe: Prob not needed with the mods you mentioned
deck lid lip spoiler: i like!

i like the coupe 18s, but it since the VQ seems reluctant to gain from bolt ons, dropping 40lbs of rotating mass would probably make a decent difference in accleration
tune can make a difference even on a stock car, but i probably won't bother. i had kpro on my rsx and it made a big difference but u have to stay on top of it to make sure u aren't knocking or something...to much work, maybe ill get safc-2 or something, idk
oh and i wanna get cams, lol but i doubt that will ever happen
oh i also wanna get that ipod adapter
and yeah i guess the 1/2" is more money and also some people say you could lose some low end, idk
here is a pic of what the koseis would look like(its on page one also..lol), they would stick out a bit further being 35 offset and 8" wide
they might look ok with a drop
and for good measure my rsx in trade in mode
poorly painted 02-04 wheels with snow tires
alpine media center/ipod HU replaced with a $50 dual from walmart

i know cams will be a bitch...maybe if i get a winter beater and I have a week or so to just take my time..lol
as for the wheels, that is a chop so they are sitting where the OEM 17x7 +40s are. the kosei's are and inch wider and will stick out 5mm further so overall they will be 5mm plus half an inch further out
^you dick! LOL I feel bad for who buys your RSX with a $50 Dual headunit hahahaha
Heres my exhaust. HR Y-pipe, Cpe Midpipe, and HKS Axleback

idk seems like people just don't try to get NA performance out of these cars
i would imagine with long tube headers(unfortunatly only megan, obx and some super expensive company make those), cams, exhaust, spacer, dyno tune and a little weight redux, you could get some fairly respectable na times out of it

i know cams will be a bitch...maybe if i get a winter beater and I have a week or so to just take my time..lol

sounds nice...241 is pretty good for an auto right?

So my car with an auto and less mods doing 240ish made me happy. It is enough.
When i dynoed my car for the first time with a dirty air filter i made 217whp, so like 30whp is pretty good lol

Yea id say 241 is pretty good. A non tuned coupe 6mt with full exhaust, HFCs, CAI, etc etc bolt-ons made like 260 something.

i put some lense clarifier on them last night, worked pretty good, they were sorta yellowish and I picked up a set of wheels wide enough for the set of blizzacks my bro is giving me https://g35driver.com/forums/17-inch...nter-rims.html ftw
