Startin on my new coupe

[AzureCoupe0888]

I am just starting to work on my new coupe. I have the 3.5L SE in azure blue. I just got my windows tinted 15% on all windows except winshield. Ordering the Injen intake tomorrow. I think I am getting the G35 spoiler, still debating on which one. I am curious if anyone can tell me if the eibach lowering kit is worth getting. I want to lower it and looking at the stillen site that is what they offer. And if I get the eibach kit, should I do 1.4in front and 1in back?

Azure- welcome!IMO the altima coupe looks best spoiler-less.The eibach lowering kit is DEFINITELY worth getting. It gets rid of some of the wheel gap and cornering is noticably improved. I don't think you really have a choice of how much you can lower it...The pro-kit lowers it 1.4-1.6 inches in the front and 1 inch in the back. Good luck with everything and watch out for the mod bug!

O thats cool, i was just lookin at eibach's website, and thats what they had it listed for, for the altima coupe. I see you have gotten ur headlights modified, I am lookin to do the same, what type are the low, and hi beams, blinkers, running lights, and fog lights? lol I kno thats a lot I am just curious I'd like to make em all brighter.

[itsjustbusiness]

type? uhhhhh...if you mean brand? everything is stock except for my low beams which are Xentecs (pretty popular around here). There's really no purpose of changing the high beams. The fog lights you can also change to HIDs if you want. If you were talking about bulb size refer to:

Ya thanks, what is a map light and dome light i have no idea.

[itsjustbusiness]

They're the big interior lights on the "ceiling of the car" - map light turns on when you turn off your car or open your car and the dome light in the rear you have to turn on manually

How about the stillen sway bars? worth it?

[itsjustbusiness]

I haven't put them on yet so I don't know but stillen is pretty reputable so I would trust their numbers - 20% more stiffness in the rear. I think one or two of the forum members has put it on so hopefully they'll put their 2 cents in

did you check the shipping?the nismo exhaust MSRP is $980, and its just a magnaflow catback rebaged as nismo.

[leifab]

Well i would imagine you would have shipping from any of those places..and would be pretty much the same price from each. I'm in a unique position for the nismo exhaust...because nismoparts.com is based in tacoma, wa store...and Lisa Alexander from the Olympia store pretty much runs all the things on the website...so i can get nismo stuff without having to pay for shipping...i just go pick it up

[leifab]

MSRP on the magnaflow from their site is $932.86

I'm willing to pay the little extra from the laser inscribed nismo tips
