Hey guys i recently bought a black 2.5s Altima Coupe, and I was wanting to make some mods to it. I have anywhere from 5000-10000 to spend on this car. I was wanting a turbo, exhaust, HIDs, tint, and fogs. Right now it is bone stock. I was wondering what you guys would recommend for it?

I'd go for Wheels/Tires and Lowering kit first.

The popular ones on here are the Eibach springs, you can get them off Stillen's website or autoanything.com. They'll cost ya $210 - 250 depends on where you buy it from.

make sure you choose the car model/make before you purchase anything. http://www.autoanything.com/suspension- ... 9A0A0.aspx

id advise against turbo with the cvt, it just cant handle the boost.. ive heard you can stay below something like 4 psi and be good but with that your almost doing nothing lol

if you have 10g to spend id go with coilovers

alright so the turbo is out. And coil overs alright. I was thinking about blacking out the taillights. I need rims and low profile tires. Any other suggestions?

Coils and 19's and you'd be off to a good start.
