Welcome to NICO!

And make it fast make it fast make it fast!

In all seriousness, do what you want to the car, but I think you will find that the general consensus of what people like to see (atleast on these forums) are performance mods.

Me personally, I'm all about the performance. As far as what should you do to the car, it depends on what you want it to be!

Do you want to win car shows? Focus on body kits.Do you want to win on the autoX or take the car to the track? Focus on suspensionDo you want to be the fastest thing at the dragstrip? Focus on Horsepower

It all depends on you. Personally, I like the idea of focussing on suspension and brakes, then power, but to each his/her own!

well thanks guys!! I want fast to, but i still want it as an everyday driver, they have turbo kits, and just came out with a supercharger, but i am kinda ify about that because of all the motor work needed to support one, what do yall think about nitrous? i have heard those fuel systems dont handle that very well.

I think you should put VTEC on it.. That's all you need.. that adds like 1000 hp.. 'nuff said..

Welcome to the site. I have seen you on other Sentra boards before if I remember correctly.

Anyhow whether or not you should make it fast or make it look cool is all up to you. I personally like the best of everything so that is what I tried to do with mine. As for going forced induction I know there are several Spec owners boosted that drive theirs everyday. I have got a PTI kit on mine and I have't had any major issues out of the car since the turbo but I don't daily drive mine either.

Post up a mod list so we know what you have so we can direct you from there. At least you need to get a header to get rid of the ticking time bomb that you call your exhaust manifold.

I'd stay away from FI and N2O if you're looking at a daily Spec and don't plan on spending a ton to reinforce the internals.
