So I haven't been on here for a hot minute. Figure I post a pic of what my M looks like. Those are 370z anniversary gunmetal edition wheels. Had to stretch tirez in rear to make flush.

looks nice! I always liked those rims. I also see you got the BC coilovers, what dampning settings are you working with on NYC crap road? I am also located in NYC and just had BC'S installed. I have a service appoint in a couple weeks to reset rear damper settings more clicks towards soft. The Installer put them on out the box which was set at 8 clicks from hard which i find kinda harsh.

I just had them adjusted as well. Had to make em softer cause it was too hard in rear. I believe it was at 16, he brought it down 2 clicks so its at 14/32. the ride quality is so much better. I also added a plenum gasket.

Just replaced the tube from air filter to throttle body was super easy. And later replaced with K&N filter. Not sure if it got any better lol. The 5/16 spacer made the biggest difference for me. I see you got that already :bigthumb:

Yea I had the copper 5/15 plenum gasked installed over the weekend. I'm over the intake, doesnt do anything for me anymore. I heard good things about using a ztube so I'm gonna go that route. I also want to add the catbacks, probably megan cause I wanna keep the quad tips.

Thanks, I was also thinking 14 from soft in the rear would be a good balance. Its not to bouncy on 14 is it?

No not at all. The harder it is the more bouncy it is from my experience. This is a perfect balance for me.
