New Mods to Install - With Pics

Hey guys. Finally got my GT Spec STB installed along with the NR>G Carbon Fiber Engine Cover. But I still have a bunch of other mods to install. Like a K&N Typhoon Intake, GT Spec Front Subframe Tie Braces, Betty's Garage 4AWG Grounding Wires, and the KP Tech Traction, Nav, & Mirror Tilt Modules.

I plan to put the front subframe braces on tonight, and I'm hoping to get the car dyno'd this weekend, then the intake and grounding wires will go on. Not sure when I'll have the time to do the KP Tech modules... The mods are coming faster than I can install them.

5AT or 6MT? I'm interested to see if the grounding wires do any difference for you.

I rolled my eyes when I first saw that cover become available but now that I see it installed, I have to admit.... I like it!

Looks good.

2B honest with ya.. I only feels that mine Radio is totally louder than before at the same level set up.
The Shifting when using paddle is alilttle faster..Hardly Notice but who's care.. Well worth it.

It's a 5AT, and for me the grounding wires made a huge difference in the shifting speed, particularly in sport and manual modes... plus, they were cake to install. The upshifts are much quicker and sharper and the downshifts seem to be a little sharper as well. My wife drove the car last night and even asked if I did something to the transmission, so she even noticed the difference. The grounding wires are definitely worth every penny.

I know, the engine cover is pure rice, but I hated that cheap plastic factory cover and was dying to get rid of it. What I'd really love to have is a Kinetix tubular intake like they make for the 1st Gen G's and 350Z's!!!

Here are some new pics of the engine bay with the K&N intake and BB grounding wires installed.

My thanks to KulG35 for helping me install the K&N intake in Church's parking lot on Saturday!
