Congrats, looks brilliant and it seems like it fits what you were looking for. Luckily you partnered up with Forged Performance. Sharif really knows how to make dreams come true.

Since I'm new to FI, i'd definitely love to hear your inputs on any other ideas to keep things cool.
Well Sharif will tell you I beat on that car pretty hard. All I had for cooling mods were the Samco hoses, a Koyo rad, and Evans NPG. I did multiple mountain runs with Sharif and the local Z/G crowd, ZDAYZ, Airstrip event, etc. I never had issues with overheating at all.

got back the brakes, front tower strut, nismo tower strut brace, and nismo mass damper, umm i think that was it. of course the stock exhaust manifolds came off, i waved bye bye to those (if i ever lost my mind and went back to NA i'd just get aftermarket headers).

of all those parts, only the brakes are for sale. if i can find a way to get the braces and mass damper back on, i want to.

P.S. since this thread was made, i had Sharif and the crew add some formula silver RE30 Volks, with T1R rubber. car is starting to look teh sex now....just needs some decent coilovers and sways....and some R888's on the stock wheels....i'll post pics as soon as i can stop playing MW2.

This thread is pretty old, but I bought this car about a month ago. It is truly amazing.
