New Mods .*PICS

With the track season quickly apporaching I cant wait to get my new mods installed. My 03 coupe is about to hit 80,000 miles, and I still love the car. It has been exactly what I wanted it to be, A reliable daily driver and a fun track day car! Current mods include. Z-tube,y-pipe, AAM plenum spacer, Turboxs Utec and Brembos/w Stoptech 2-piece rotors.

My first new mod is Strup SS headers w/ Jet Hot Sterling coating. Being a daily driven car dealing with Chicago winter road salt, I felt the lifetime corrosion warranty from jet-hot was good insurance to prevent any problems in the future. Especially considering how difficult header install is.



The reduced underhood temps is also a big plus for the Jet-Hot Coating!

Next mod is the Motordyne MREV-2 lower Plenum.


In order to tune to a perfect A/F ratio I picked up the Turboxs Tuner. Its a wideband that get connected to the utec. It provides logs of my car which will include my A/F in any rpm. I can then tune to make power based on these logs.



And I have finally have some handling mods! Since I scrape on snow with the stock suspension, lowering is not on top of my list of upgrades however after getting a ride in a stock G35c with sway bars I had to get some my self. here are my stillen sways with my new Drivers seat



my car should be happy

A set of shocks would also help out greatly if you don't want to lower, tokico d-specs would be a good option

yea the drivers seat was a last minute purchase. I broke my Stock Seat Bracket at my last track day, went to get a new bracket and it cost as much as a new seat. Decision was easy.
