I'm not a big fan of "performance" parts on shitty cars. Save the money by putting racing profile tires/rims/carbon fiber hoods on a '90's civic hatchback and put it toward a new car imo... But to each his own. But really... Putting rims and a new hood on a 90HP car is still a 90HP car. Someone I went to school with has a '92 Acura Integra that looks fairly stock, but under the hood he has a 500HP turbo engine. Not something I would do, but I would much rather upgrade the inside of a car instead of the outside
Personally, that car I put up on the first page has 155HP stock, but more or less can reach 170-180 with simple exhaust upgrades, and can use one of Toyota's fastest engines with little wiring drama at all. Most people start with basic intake/exhaust parts while working suspension and wheels, and then work towards an engine swap, turbo etc. I'd have my car relatively stanced and looking good before I start dropping G's on an engine upgrade that I won't be able to crack open on the streets. |

Got this one a few months back. I love how the dual exhaust sounds on the 35 coupes, Low and fierce |

I prefer the G sedans for the family-friendliness and the fact that the AWD G35/37x is sedan-only. However, I've done work on a G35 (no joke-it was an oil change and brake pad replacement), and the interior is sex.

Solid piece of machinery, but I HATE on DSM's for ther ability to poop cylinders at will...I can get an Evo I or II in Canada if i had the cash...
"Cheap, reliable, fast, pick two. But if you've got a DSM, pick one."

The STi exhaust won't run more than 80 bucks, the DP would be maybe 4-500, and the intake kit might be 2-300.

The BMW now sits in the garage. Despite the FMIC cluing at an SR20, that shit is WAY too low. No speedbumps for you. |
