Wait what wheels Kev?

Oh and the nismo is a 1.5 but acts too much like a 2 way lol. I can't imagine what it would be like if you had the discs rearranged to a 2 way haha. Damn.

As far as headers, it's not guaranteed that you'll gain certain amount oh whp.
Some gain 20whp, some gain nothing, in my case i only gained 6whp..not worth it for how much i paid.
$1,100 for Nismo headers+$400 labor.
Headers will make ur car louder and throatier. My car's not that loud though since I have JIC y-pipe.

Strup is less than half the price of nismo. i've also heard good stuff about it.

I'm hoping to track my car ever month next year. January might be hard because it'll be at technosquare for a couple of weeks, but thats it, so lots of track time after that.

Hey yea definitely next year..I need to get some coilovers and better brakes first.
I just downsized my heavy 19" two-piece wheels to lighter 18" one-piece wheels just for tracking.

What coilovers are popular in Japan? I like Zeals so I'm looking into that!
