Hey! I figured I would do a re-introduction....I fell off from these forums back in like 2010 after I made friends with some of the regulars here (new account, i lost my old one). Still have them on Instagram and Facebook for the most part. Just figured I would get reacquainted with the forums. I'm finally getting back into the business of modifying my Altima. I did some work a few years ago then life just got to me for a bit...Now im working a good steady job and have both the time and money thankfully :mike


Not the best photo, took it the night I threw my new Eibach springs on. I'm loving the lower ride: especially on cornering :woot:

Mods:

-Carbon Creations carbon fiber GT Concept hood. (Open claim and complaint. Factory cross-threaded the bottom studs of the hood...I couldnt tell upon original inspection of the package. I currently have the hood riding too high, and I have to drop hood pins in to keep it from flexing at 75+ MPH, but it can and will be fixed)
-Eibach performance (lowering) springs.
-Takeda short ram intake.
-Nismo cat-back exhaust.
-EBC green stuff brakes.
-Stillen 5 piece body kit. (I already had the spoiler and didn't like the roof deck wing they had for sale)
-KYB front struts. (Being put on this week, in the mail, blew my front struts at 75K Mi...)
-Red map lights.
-Diode Dynamics Acrylic cup holder lights (red)
-Red door lights. (small bottom panel)
-Plasti-dipping my wheels this week after my struts go on. (Dipyourcar.com)
-CG Black LED tail lights to the list.

Going to also be buying the Y-pipe, slotted rotors, and new painted calipers for the vehicle asap, and im always taking suggestions. :werd:

Where'd you get the nismo exhaust? Do you have any sound clips?

Looks clean AF! How did you get your Stillen fascia's sag fixed? It looks flush on yours!

Welcome back. If you plan on buying new calipers and rotors, may I suggest using the dual piston calipers from some of the Infinities on the front? I know Powerstop makes kits for them that'll directly bolt on and are powder coated red. If you wanted to get real crazy, you could also get the Akebonos from the G37S but you need different wheels to clear them and they're a bit pricey.
