haha it seems like everyone has a different opinion, none of which have anything to do with me keeping this car
I see what you mean. Seems like alot of work though for not alot of money. Those wheels don't actually have any spacers though
They're Nexen N3000's. 340 treadwear AA traction A temp and they're very cheap
Everything is transferable so the 06 is an option also at this point
"I have an 03 5at with a full Nismo v2 kit, HKS exhaust, Injen intake, Motordyne spacer, Tsw wheels, Pioneer head unit, aftermarket gps, stoptech rotors etc..."
Here's my plan. Sell the Full kit and get OEM bumper to put on the car, sell the Injen and grab a OEM, sell the spacers, sell the wheels and put stock back on but keep the HKS, Pioneer and gps.
Sell the car for bluebook value and buy a HR, transplant the parts you kept and sell the OEM parts off the HR.

It sounds as if either way you are firm in your desire to sink untold amounts of cash into a car. Since you understand that modding a car is nothing more than an expensive hobby, then choose the option that makes you the happiest.
It is like a golfer wondering if they should buy an entirely new set of clubs after they have already replaced a couple drivers and putters with expensive clubs. You can sell the old set but keep the special drivers and putter, or you can just sell the set as is and buy a new, better, set until you decide your game will be better with a slightly different club. Golf can be an expensive hobby and some folks spend ridiculous amounts of money on it. They do it because they enjoy it. It makes no sense beyond that.
Modding cars is exactly the same, an expensive hobby that is worthless beyond the enjoyment you derive from it. So... do what you want and who cares what others think?
