[vi3t89]

hey i just picked up my new altima coupe 2.5 in red any suggestions for some modifications?

[generic808]

Good places to start:

INJEN intake: zerothread/281295

HID's: zerothread?id=293744

Wheels: zerothread/295986

And of course an exhaust would be nice.

Cold air intake, sway bars, twin turbo, carbon fiber hood, front lip, rear spoiler, lower the rid hight, new rims, lambo doors, hope you got some cash because i am trying to get all this in my car. and oh yea you need

[SHIFT_2.5S]

Congrats on the car.

I would start with the following:1. Tint (if you want it)2. HIDs3. Aftermarket springs (Eibach)4. Intake (Injen)

Ski, I know, I am the promoter of self expression on this forum, especially when it comes to car mods, but were you joking about the lambo doors? If you are seriously considering getting them, give me a call, and I'll try my best to convince you not to do that. I had a GT factory vertical door kit on my last car, and anyone that has them will tell you, they are NOT for daily driven cars... Passengers will not know how to open and close them, valets will destroy them, and after a while, when the novelty wears off, they just become down right annoying! I don't miss my vertical doors AT ALL!!! They look fantastic (although now they are a little played out, kind of like spinning rims) but IMHO, not worth the hassle!

Where's that old thread on lambo doors when you need it...

[skiski329]

^ would be a good start, or getting a 3.5

[rjdmmfl1]

The 3.5 isn't for everyone JD... to each his own!

If you're willing to pay my gas bills, I'll upgrade to a 3.5 today.

VERTICAL DOORS MAYBE?

[zerodeefex]

clear bra. Best investment in your front end ever. Don't know what you've thought about yet, but here's what I've done/having done this week on my hybrid sedan:

1. Clear Bra2. All weather floor mats (perfect for those people who like to track stuff into your car)3. aluminum kick plates (I only got the convenience package)4. OEM fogs

Other than that, I'd do tint, wheels, suspension, and stereo.

hey shift, on those lowering springs (eibach).. You have to get a camber kit if you have them installed right? I dropped my integra like 1.5' and the inside of the tires went bald real quick cus I never installed a camber kit!!

[D-Roll]

Twin turbos FTW!

[cuzzbubba420]

and what the heck is a "turbanator"? Sounds like an Arnold movie!!

[vi3t89]

yeah i got the clear bra

orderd some 6000k h.i.d lightspossibly orderin the piaa fog lamps waiting for spring for my rimsand waiting on that group buy for the injen intake

Nice! You won't regret the clear bra. I've waited a month to have the installer do it, but after seeing the difference on my old car to my old roommate's with a clear bra, I'm never going to go without one again.

As far as the other things, I'd still suggest the all weather floormats. They're like $63 from nissanpartsonline.net and I can't tell you how often they've already come in handy during the rainy season with all the people who want to ride in my car.

[vi3t89]

yeah i got floor mats as well but not the nissan one just got some michellins for like 40 bukz that were cut out from costco
