Just wanted to introduce myself. Picked up a San Marino Blue Base '08 today. I'll get pictures later. It's cold and snowing right now.

It already has nismo intakes and a catback (don't know what kind of exhaust but it sounds stock?). I really wanted a fully stock car but got this at a really good price.

I was sad to see a 3.5mm aux wire coming from behind the dashboard. Just noticed it when I got home. I don't know how to use it. I'm getting a new head unit anyways so its not that big of a deal.

Plans are:
Quaife or Nismo LSD
Stainless Steel brake lines
Track rims/tires and pads

That should be enough for me for a while, although it seems inevitable that I'm going to start messing with the suspension. We'll see how this does on the track =)

My previous car:
97 Honda Accord
Revalved (SPSS3 Race valving) Koni Yellows w/ Ground Control Coilovers (850lb/700lb f/r spring rates.)
No Front swaybar / 22mm Rear Swaybar

Nice to meet you guys
Aaron =)

 

Hey congrats man! Post some pics whenever you can.

 

if you really like the track rims make sure you check for somebody selling them on here, if you buy them from the dealer they will rape you and you could have gotten some quality aftermarket wheels at that price.

if you are planning on tracking the car frequently i would not skimp out on wheels/tires/brakes/suspension. those are the most important components.

 

Sorry I didn't mean the Track model rims. Just separate rims and tires used only at the track. I'll be running 17's. Cheaper tires lol

 

Welcome and CongratZ. Get some pics up!

 

Welcome to the forum Aaron. Looks like the previous owner at least put good quality mods in. A few less things for you to do.

 

pics please!
