If you are going for looks, a GP sports body kit is about the sexiest around...

There you go with the GP body kits.

Post by **jdmfreak** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

Yes the GP kits are hot. It really doesnt matter what kit you get just as long as you like it and it isnt one of those cheap kits.

Post by **kikass240** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

ill check into the bodykit...thanks..i really like the more quiet looks..not too aggressive..i think they look better that way on the 240's..any others?

Post by **SloS13** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

Keep the body stock, drop it 1.5", get some nice paint, wheels, tires. Call it a day.

Post by **whiterps13** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

i think a stock body with big rims and lowered looks sweeter than any body kit. when i say big rims i mean wide, possibly with fender flares. bomexs13 has a nice s13 with flares, and i know he posted a freinds car with some sick flares. try searching in this forum for widebody or flares. the timeless stlyle of nissans stock bodies just makes me feel fuzzy inside.

BTW - I think its awesome (and also a refreshing change) that you're a girl and you didnt make a girly screen name i.e. 'GRRLRACERHOTTIE69' Oh yeah and welcome to the board

Post by **kikass240** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

if i keep it stock and lower it..should i do more of the interior work and keep the body the same...(just nice rims)??..i could think of some things to do that would make the interior look nice...and thanks, didnt want to make it too obvious i was a girl..you know how some guys get..

Post by **jdmfreak** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

Let the leg humping proceed! j/k

Well you could throw in some buckat seats, but I doubt you'll want that. Lets hear you Ideas on the interior.

Oh and remember wider tires =more expensive.

Post by **kikass240** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

true about the tires...not sure what to do with the interior..but like i said i could think of suttin...got any suggestions on anything good i could put in it...i really dont want to do the cheezy s*** some people do...

Post by **IveBeenBad** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

i would just reupholster the seats in a nice 2 tone leather scheme... maybe even upgrade to Skline or S14 seats.

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

wide tires really arnt too much more expensive, but low profile tires are.

Post by **SloS13** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

Dont paint any of the interior. Get a shortshifter, nice comfortable knob, and you'll probably need a new shift boot if you have an S13. S15 steering wheel = teh sexy. You can get new carpet and if you are good at finding stuff, some new OEM floormats.

Post by **jdmfreak** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

Or how about a MOMO or Sparco steering wheel if you really wanna spend the money, but yea the S15 steering wheel is great as well. Also if you want put in a new CD player. Pioneer has some good ones for decent $. Hmmmmm...what else? Oh! I cant believe no one has said rims yet. Check tirerack.com for great deals on rims. Some nice 16s or 17s will do fine. Also look into a nice carbon fiber front lip if you dont want a body kit.

PS: Im not really a big fan of neon lighting, but I know a lot of girls that are. If you want them, my advice to you is: Dont do them unless your car is in good condition and looking good(Good factory paint, rims and maybe lowered). I also suggest putting them on the inside, but make sure that they are very well hidden and dont overdo it.

Thats it for now.

Post by **kikass240** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

sounds good...i probably wont do too much with the neon..maybe a few inside the car but probably not underneath...where could i get a good carbon fiber lip? ill check that out and see if a body kit would look better or if i shouldnt bother...but like i said, something along the lines of a quiter not so aggressive look, not so overdone...it will make it look like im trying too hard to impress cause im a girl..

nice sound system sounds good and ill check the rims out and see if i could get some good deals...thanks for all the suggestions! how about some ideas for under the hood...? dont want to over do that too...

Post by **D1SR240** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

for outside looks i'm personally a fan of the 180sx kouki look, in super black, but thats just me : )

Post by **nissandrift** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

If you decide on a 91-94 you need a front lip, such as an 89-90.

Post by **jdmfreak** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

Damn it you beat me to it! I was going to say if you wanted to go for quiter exterior styling do the 180sx or silvia front end conversion. It isnt too expensive and very sexy.

Exhaust-Id suggest checking out this thread http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....wpostIntake- I would go with Injen or AEMHeaders-Hot Shot

Any thing else?

Post by **IveBeenBad** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

under the hood depends on the available funds.

If you are on a budget, I/H/E and a 50 shot should do you.

If you have money to blow, and SR or CA swap in stock form in a good match for most cars on the street.

Post by **PhaneSoul** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

or if u have the money to blow y dont u just redo the internals and have a ka engine thats just as good as a sr or ca?

Post by **jdmfreak** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

Awwwww maaaaan!!! Please dont let this turn into another KA vs. SR vs. CA thread. Lets just keep this simple for her.

Post by **PhaneSoul** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

sorry i jus think if your going to give her the choice of swapping to a sr or a ca then also throw the choice of upgrading the ka out there

Post by **jdmfreak** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

No I understand. I just wanted to stop a potential pointless debate.

Post by **PhaneSoul** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:21 pm

yea ive read thru sum of them tryin to decide which engine i want, but hey, least i didnt say it was better, im jus sayin in my eyes there all the same cuz im jus a lil new at all this and i dont kno all the specs on all the engines and dont really kno if their all the same

**changes subject** window tint is pretty cheap and usually looks good if done professionally (IMO)
