Whats up guys,brand new here. I have a 2010 altima coupe 2.5s. I love it, but i came across this forum and saw some of your coupes and got a little jealous. Im not the racing type and I've never really worked on cars. I work on air compressors for a living so im capable of doing most mods myself. The only problem is I dont know anything about cars lol. Anyways, my coupe has the CVT automatic transmission. Is there any modifications that i can make to my car to make it a little more exciting to drive?

Welcome! Yea, Dan covered a lot of the modifications. Other than that you can find the Members Modification Page at the top of the forum and you can see how different cars turned out with different modifications.
