just couldn't hold back any longer....
 

well, when i had purchased my Z, i was more than happy with it in its stock configuration. however that all changed. having owned an RSX-S previously and had it modded quite nicely i was a little unhappy to sell it. when i got my Z, i said to myself that i wasn't going to touch it. i had my SC S2000 and TT Supra which both exceed the factory WHP by more than 150hp!

well i got the injen CAI (powder coated black) and it began all over again.

i place an order, or should i say, put myself on the waiting list for the Crawford V5 Plenum (powder coated black), Crawford Headers and a Crawford Strut bar. also went ahead and ordered a B/M SS kit, Nismo shift knob (smaller one), injen test pipes and already installed my injen SES exhuast with straight tipes.

i just couldn't hold it back any longer...

this is what i love to do. i tried to change, but it seem the car changed me.

Sweet man. Once the mod bug has bitten its hard to stop. I know this from experience.

you need to go to rehad.lol

hahaha
 

Yes.
Submit to the sickness...

Dont fight it...you have been assimilated.

=)

THIS IS LOSING GRIP:

[[[[had to change my s/n. i changed my email address and forgot my email address password so now i made and new account for both. had to keep it the same tho]]]]

anyhow, yeh. the bug has bitten my quite hard. i also forgot to mention that i also ordered a Cf engine cover and radiator panel not to long ago. anyone here have experience with cutting the engine cover to fit the crawford plenum and SB?

thanks

p.s. next mod im going to be buying my brother's nismo rims and adding a CF hood and lower CF cover below the grill.

think of all the money you'll lose when you go to sell your car...

Did that help?

Nope...oh well....MOD away!!! hehe

i had an RSX-S with 13k invested! bought the car for 22K. sold it two year later with 27k for 18.5 and my nissan dealership.

one week later my friend bought my RSX for 17.1

now how did that work out? I WIN!

to me if i get in over 15-20k invested i keep the car. thats what i did to my honda and toyota. i couldnt sell them because they would NEVER return the money i had poured into them.

I've had my Z for two weeks and bought nearly $2000 in mods. My friends and family think I'm nuts. Mods as follows:

Nismo LSD - Not yet installed
JWT Popcharger - installed last week
Kinetix Test Pipes - Not yet installed
Kinetix Plenum - Not yet here
DC Ceramic Headers - Not yet here
HID System - installed Saturday

....I'm already saving for a supercharger or turbo

how much were the injen race pipes?

LOL, this is exactly why I call my car what it is... my Go-Fast-Crack-Pipe... :D
