i like it except for the dual pipes

its just a personal preference for me that an inline should be a single pipe.... besides it helps with torque!

Ya those are 350z wheels. Thanks for the compliments.And it came stock with dual exhaust, and looks kind of weird with single, because there's an unfilled cutout, so you would need to get it filled.....

I've recently gained an affection for SC300, I used to hate them. I guess as I mature more and more, I like newer things. woot.

In theory, it would be an SC250 due to the 1J being a 2.5L, but all that aside, nice lookin ride. You also did the 5 speed swap, which is a good think for that car. Soarers with automatics blow. They shift super slow in my opinion, even with the twin turbo model.

I'd also say you are in need of a new air filter. That thing looks turffed, mate.

Those Z wheels actually look pretty friggan good on that car. I suggest getting rid of the Nissan center caps and seeing if you can find something to fill the hole with.

Thanks guys!I'm in the market for an AEM dryflow if anyone has one with a ~3" inlet. **Hint hint** The one on there now is a two year old K&N that has never been cleaned lol.And I've been looking for new centercaps with either a toyota or Lexus badge on them, but they're all like 40 bucks a set on ebay. And thats way more than I'm willing to spend on centercaps.

That vertical piece is a flip down cup holder. Its kind of useless, so I took it out and put my Greddy boost controller there.

Boost wise I'm making about 13lbs, but once I hook up the boost controller I'll up it to around 15lbs and hopefully 310whp after a tune.
