performance 6 spd. I bought just before the bottom dropped out and prices dropped. Just over a year ago.

Sweet. Definitely in my future!

Wow. Nice. It’s not every day we get to win at life, and it’s good to celebrate every win! AND, it’s great to have others celebrate with you!! And Sir, you have most definitely won 🏆. I paid a Nismo exhaust over msrp and didn’t get an exhaust. 😕. Lol.

Well not to mention with the under dampened shocks. The good thing is that most all of this is correctable for those that so desire. I wouldn’t quite say that all of your settings go out the window though. Someone that has -2* of static camber up front will have more grip than someone that is...

The Tomei Japan is a large single pipe all the way back that splits into 2 mufflers in the back like the z1 touring exhaust which is also like the GTR. 🤔

When you look at the alignment sheet for your car, the green is what is acceptable to be close to what Nissan has dictated for a factory alignment. A BMW M3 or M4 has a target of -2* front and rear without having excessive tire wear. Geometry is geometry. You’re not going to have a situation...

So the one from Tomei Powered is the real Tomei. Crazy. Also no idea. I’m sure all of them are great quality. It probably doesn’t really matter.

Good deal, I’m glad you found “the one” for you. For me the jury is still out.

Yeah, I totally understand. When you first go through this kind of thing it can really suck you in. The good thing is that you learn as you go and you gain a better understanding on how everything works and how your car is set up. Send my condolences to fluffy.

-1.5 to -1.6 will not be an issue. Just make sure you get aligned proper when it comes to toe. I used to run -2 front and -1.5 rear on my MR2 with no issues at all. If you want to feel secure in your decision look up factory M3/M4 alignment. Personally I would want adj uppers though because...

Yeah, I wouldn’t be turned off by something not being made by Nissan. Borla mufflers are great. All stainless steel so they don’t burn out over time like a glass pack.

The Nismo is made by borla. To each their own obviously however if it were me, I would choose the 2.5” Borla branded one. But again. That’s just me. I wouldn’t personally get hung up on it saying Nismo when Nissan isn’t building it anyway.

The nismo exhaust systems are made by Borla (just an fyi) Not sure if that matters or not.

If you plan on keeping stock turbos and you do 2.5” lower downpipes and a tune it’s perfect. I had a Q50 before the Z. The outlet of the primary downpipes is 2.5” so going up to 3” after that is pointless. The most important area to open up is right after the turbo. 3” full downpipes are...

I think it looks sick! I worry about changing the exhaust and having it sound “rice”. It’s so hard to know what something sounds like by video. I’m also not a fan of the Tomei Y pipe squeezing down to a single 2.76” pipe. I wish they would have gone a tad bit larger. Thinking of going (big...

I’m confused by this statement. On Tomei’s website they state that all exhaust is designed in Japan.

Yeah. I have nothing against HK$ except for the fact that some of their stuff is a little high in price. I know they are a good quality company that has been in the business for a long time. The problems is when quality difference is non existent but the price is 50-100% higher. So you end up...

Yeah. The rebound on our factory struts seems like it wouldn’t even be enough for a Sentra. The main issue where I feel it is the front end lift that happens so easily under throttle. I can’t wait for coilovers but am being picky and can’t decide which route to take.

Hey, did you happen to get any pictures of your teins? All of the pics on line are generic factory pictures. Also, how do you like them? Is there a big noticeable difference when tuning them with the edfc? Thanks! (And sorry everyone for going off topic on the thread)

I guess there is more than one way to skin a cat. Typically for the track you want as much tire as you can fit up front and then match the back for a neutral to loose car and then 1 step wider in the back if you don’t want it loose. (Front engine rear drive) With the 9.5” rim up front and the...
