Tried to install exhaust once again... Got all pipes in place and the flange for the cat has a nice paper thin gap in the middle of it...

So I tightened it all down put the car back in the ghetto garage and will figure it out when im less angry at what has transpired.

Also one of the pipes runs up against the subframe bolt awesome... Sounds great with a major exhaust leak...

 

Swapped out the stupid Spyder headlights for some OEM style blacked out ones. I had to swap over the harnesses, as I was getting fast blinking and other issues with the harness they came with. It seems that the person who put in the Spyders did the same.

 

I decided to take the liners out of the front wheels and spray sound deadener in as well. I have nitto Invo tires with low mileage which seem to be relatively quiet. Thanks for the tip.

Awesome
That's exactly what I did.

 

I got rid of some old suspension bits this weekend



Got the PSS10's on, swapped out the calipers for the factory Brembo's, put on some Hotchkis sway bars and rolled the rear fenders. Its feels like a totally different car now

 

I feel like I could go a little lower but overall I am very happy with the PSS10's

 

Your about the same height as mine with my new coils. I'm at 26 in the front and 26.5 in the rear

 

started re wrapping the car.
pics do it zero justice.. the pearl lights up in this film like nothing I imagined.. its literally almost like reflective tape lol. Had my buddy Adam of Mixxed Auto Designs help me out with the bumper ..and with extra hands to stretch the hood vinyl.

 

Looks incredible, Brian! Huge fan of the new color. Hope to see you on the track this year.

 

yes, go lower... not much more since you are not really looking for crazy stanced out look, but 3/4" should not be too crazy I think, what ever you have take half more...

 

I agree with Quick ^^. I'm not a knuckle-draggin'-low fan but the way the car sits in the pic seems like stock height. If you have another 15mm, I say go for it.

 

Installed n1 carbon fiber n1 spoiler. Installed oem nismo side skirts and put gts wheels on. Next week, maybe brembo and suspension

 

I need a set of those skirts. Where did you source them, and how is the fit?

 

Oem Nismo skirts.....

 

Perfect fit as they are oem, got them from a member here a month ago.

One more minor problem, hopefully get it right one of these days.






All coming back off tomorrow... If the weather cooperates.

 

Her first dyno at 100k miles

Are this good numbers guys???

All stock other than Cobb Post Maf Tubes and K&N Drop Ins

Nissan claims 15% drive train loss so...

306x.15=45.9
306-45.9=260.1

 

Just goes to show what those intakes tubes actually do, and as far as the filters, all they'll get you is worn piston rings.

 

3 days of misery and when I checked for leaks I noticed some nice cracks in my catalytic converters... Even so this is one disappointingly quiet exhaust system... the stock exhaust is honestly a better sounding system... O well at least it looks good.
