Het guys. Love this site, you guys are up on everything going on with these beauties.

Looking for advice on Mods and preferences.

Already have done the 23% tint all around. I have already ordered my Short throw shifter kit and the ra 96 shifter knob.

Loving my new baby, would like to dress her about before we go on a date!!!!

Good luck with rims, im still rocking the stockers, and until something happens to them im not upgrading.

I would lower your car as soon as possible.

Eibachs 212 dollars at Stillen.

Also i could be wrong but you mentioned something about those side skirts and they look like the standard sedan oem side skirts with a "sticker". Not trying to be a d**k, anybody else?

The Nismo side skirts add a contour/taper to match the front lip and the rear valences. Perhaps its hard to see because the car is gray and masks shadows, but the side skirt is "full height" at the rear and then it has a gradual contour going down towards the front. Kind of hard to explain.

This is what it should look like....they have been advertising the NISMO package for the sedan for the last few months now...it also includes a spoiler where the ends curve over the edge as well.....now just waiting for the Coupe package ( )

did you get the front lip, rear quarter panels, and NISMO exhaust as well, or was it only the spoiler and side skirts that came in the "NISMO" package?

so then it comes with the front lip, side skirts, rear panels, spoiler, and exhaust, but not the rims?!?!?! that seems a bit odd. anything else that the package included (intake, etc...)?

DIY

oh and what kinda tires do you have on your car.

They dont look like the standard Conti pro garbage that are standard on the 2.5 coupe.
