Im still debating on getting an 04 0r 05-06. I think if i get the 05-06 i want autox but 03-04 im thinking manual. Is there a big differences in power. I know numbers are different as far as Hp and tq but can you really tell the difference. And also interior room? To me it seems like the 03-04 is a lil smaller than the 05-06.

 

Read the faqs on the stickies. Not many differences other than cosmetics and a little more power and torque, not noticeable tho.

 

Get an 04 manual... it'll be more fun.
The 05/06 looks better stock, but the 03/04 looks better with the Nismo kit

 

03-04

 

If you can afford it...get a low mileage 06.

 

05-06 has all the little aesthetic things you will end up wanting and will have to pay for if you get the previous years. Slight increase in power too. Aside from that no big diff.

IMO the 05-06 bumper looks great after a drop, i have no need for a nismo or an aftermarket bumper.

 

I think the 05 also deletes the tape player and adds MP3 capability.... I don't see why the interior room would be different between an 04 to 05 and 06'. The dimensions of the car are exactly the same.

 

Not on the inside foo....................

 

^LOL. Yeah, you're right.

 

I have an 04 and sat in a few 05-06, to me its not worth the money to upgrade.

the biggest change on the interior was the clock and AC display....eh

I also dont like the chrome interior door handles on the 05+

the gauges are bit different...

I would buy an 05-06....cuz I bought mine in 04....but if you are wanting to upgrade i dont think its worth it

 

I go with an 05-06 6MT. Better brakes, than the 03-04. Revup engine is stronger and has variable exhaust timing. The interior is upgraded and the gauges especially. Plus, the hood and headlights look better IMO.
