Hey guys im new here. My mother has been leasing the Versa (6speed) for almost a year now (march). Previously I owned a 95 civic (3 years), and just this week sold it. The money I got from the civic has fully paid off the lease for me to drive it. At the end of next year I have the option to buy it from the dealer (roughly 10k). Granted its a lease I still want to tinker (I fully built my last car). I'm going to have a talk with nissan first, but my list of mods id like to do is:OEM fogsOEM spoilerLip kit all around17inch rims with some fat tirestint all aroundlowering springsaxleback exhaustbillet grille

As for the motor if possible and out in the market id like to turbo it.Granted none of this stuff will be happening to the car untill I converse with nissan (or after I decide i want to buy it from the dealer).

Most of those mods Nissan won't let you do to a leased vehicle. Exceptions would probably be wheels (as long as you keep the originals), OEM spoiler/fogs, and tint. But since it's a leased vehicle you do NOT own it... Nissan does. You're just renting it from them for a specified time period.

You can mod the car if you want, but don't do ANYTHING that isn't easily reversible, because you will need to do so before you drive it back onto the dealer lot to negotiate your purchase or return.

No turbo exists on the market... the one turbo kit that was built was built by a company that flopped, and the one kit they physically shipped is (or was) being parted out. I wouldn't expect a marketable turbo kit for a long time if at all, given the low demand for it.

But welcome to NICO.

yea i know i dont own it. but i might. but after lookin at prices and stuff, haha really not worth 300 for a spoiler. No biggie. Ill just keep it as a daily, and just put some wheels on it (unles the sensor prevents me from even bothering). Thanks for the welcome.

has anyone had enough balls to spray their versa?

Go look in the nissanversa.org gallery at Kimber's V...

There are a couple others, but she's the most... visible... example.

I think he's reffering to spraying nitrous.

And no one that I know of has done it.

These are just not power/performance cars, doubt anyone is taking the chance of blowing up a year old (or less) engine.
