What do they make? All I see for the Altima are body parts and D2 coilovers.Everything is overpriced on that site. CF roof spoiler direct from AIT is $215, from race on usa its $403, on sale.

Well congrats on your sponsorship and keep us updated with the new parts that will be made.

looks good but I would suggest a couple of things:

1. roof overlay 2. i think black eyelids might actually fit your black/silver theme better3. definetly get some bigger wheels with small rubber, the body kit made your car bulkier and the wheels shrink in comparison to the big body now.

lol they sure don't look like it. i think its the wheel design, reminds me of the G35 19' rays. they have a similar design and i always thought it makes them look smaller than most 19s.

IMO, both the SC430 and the new convertivle IS 350 are overpriced... they both have specs exactly the same as our 3.5 ... low 14's in 1/4 mile and 5.8 second 0-60.. if I get anything, it will be an upgrade in both quality AND performance... and right now, Toyota/Lexus doesn't have anything that appeases me... I wanted the FT-HS, but as far as I can tell, the latest is that it will NOT go into production... nothing out there right now catches my eye the way the Altima coupe did when I saw it in the show room

I thought about the G37 for a second, but for more money, and not much more performance, it just isn't worth it. Also, I sat inside one the other day, dear god, the a pillars, the start button, the vanity mirrors, the eye glass holder... 100% ALtima coupe. The leather seats are better quality and perforated, the navigation system (which I would never get from the factory) is better, and they have ipod inputs, and the brushed aluminum looks like REAL brushed alumnium....

so I guess all in all, it is definitely and upgrade from the ALtima, but not enough performance wise to warrant me buying it...

and yes, my car is in the shop for at least two weeks... water go into the smj and coroded the terminals, causing some to break of, and shorting a few circuits.... final cost will be about $2700 ....

true, true. if I had a base 2.5 upgrading would be much easier. but since I got the top spec full equip model, there isn't anything there thats worth the crazy premium for something a little big more luxurius or powerfull. bmw is WAYYY too overpriced (but oh so sexy m3, x6m, new z4). audi is overpriced too (but still ohh soo sexy models (r8, s5, rs4). seriously i'd love to have a G8 GXP with optional manual transmission, but those arn't avaible in canada. its the less pricey cadillac CTS-V.

my next car will surelly end up being a awd sport sedan/wagon or a rally hatchback/hothatch.

I need me some racer boy practicality and crazy sports ride.
