You have a long way to go.

 

this thread did not deliver... i was expecting alot more from reading the tittle

 

Did you SEE the before pix? those rims were terrible. Even if OP put it up on blocks removed the rims and put a shorty antenna on there it would be a 100% improvement!!

 

so true...

Gl op

 

A very loooong way. It gets expensive, and it's so fun. Forget about the guilt, just mod, mod, mod!

 

Looks like your just getting started!

 

You're on the right track, keep it up

 

not my taste...is that an ebay intake? looks like a fake AEM CAI...from the title i thought it was beefed up alot more

 

well, i had a 00' maxima that was all blacked out so im bored of that look now, but thats an opinion, overall it looks better than it did, deff made a good choice changing the wheels, i have to change mine too lol. deff an improvment, just change the exhaust, short antenna, shave the emblems, and i agree about painting the door handles, even if you did them with a carbonfiber look it would look pretty clean.

 

Def. Like those wheels ... They look good..

 

Just curious, you mentioned you did "all the work alone".... what work did you do other then add an CAI?

Things I would do-
*Wheel spacers
*Upgrade to 06 headlights/tailights (expensive I know, but the 03-05 lights look dated)
*short antenna
*rear wiper delete
*Lower it (looks like you might be on springs already, but the rear is still a little high)

Thats a good start for now.

 

not to offend but it looks like a kid is working on this car.. like most people have told you your far from done. most of the time when people say they are done it is when they run out of money haha

 

looks good so far. i highly doubt you're done.

 

After pic is a small improvement but an improvement nonetheless

 

Looking at the before and after pics, progress is progress. As long as you're making progress. What you plan on getting for your car depends on what u wanna do with it. Personally, don't go springs. If you're going to end up getting into the suspension, you might as well do it right the first time and get coils. Cause if u go with springs, you may not be happy with the ride and end up buying coils anyway. With coils, you can just adjust from there.

As for wheels, i believe in sticking to the double digits. I plan on running 18x10.5 +15 all around with 15mm spacers in the rear. -2* to -3* camber up front and 0 camber in the rear.

The thing is, im going to be drifting mine. Like I've said, the way you wanna build your car depends on what you wanna do with it. Best piece of advice i can give u, is the first one that was given to me. You can not have both comfort and performance. You will always have to sacrifice one for the other.

Best of luck OP and just have fun with it. (even tho it may come at a price)

Thanks man, I felt like **** lol but as a 20 yr old college student, its all i could afford at the time and with major cut backs I thinks its a lot better, and as fas as exhaust IDK what kind to get or antenna but I want something quiet and not too expenisive

 

Progress.. I didn't mean complete I meant done for now.. sorry about the title I just wanted a little more inspiration.

What should I/ can I carbon fiber?
What spacers should I get in the front and rear? how many mm?
What brand antenna and what length? < carbon fiber?
New intake? What brand?
Lip kit? Front bumper body kit?

 

Maybe the hood or a lip kit.
Depends on the offset of the wheels, Project Kics.
Off of a Honda, S2000, Element, etc. No carbon fiber.
Intakes suck but a Z tube and filter is fine.
Up to you. Don't replace the front bumper completely though, unless you are going to finish the sides and rear. Just a front lip would be fine.

 

lmao...FAIL

 

Fail?? Had this car for 2 months, just want some advice.. Don't really know much about the Z I'm learning from you guys
