Mik3G37S 2013 6MT Sedan Build Thread
11/21/15 UPDATE - pictures at the top of the post
As I'm sure quite many of us here are into modding and all but some of us don't go all out at once with the mod bug and take things step by step and since I dont really have any thread to post about my mods without being unnoticed so as suggested per Rochester I made this thread and wanted to share specifically due to the recent mod that is Invidia Q300 catback exhaust and a video of it as requested by blnewt, Rochester and others
CURRENT MODS:
Berk high flow cats
MXP exhaust with upgraded MXP Y-pipe
Eibach pro kit springs
Hotchkis F&R Swaybars
Whiteline rear endlinks
Powdercoated Akebono BBK orange
Motul RBF600 Brake Fluid
SAT (Solar Adaptive Transition) 35% Tint applied to all windows except windshield for 75%
Mt Fuji and INFINITI letters debadge
OEM rear spoiler installed
ONEighty custom dual evil Ironman headlights painted black with orange eyelids with clear lens
Gloss black vinyl wrapped grille with a matching (with my eyelids) orange face of the emblem
Gloss black vinyl wrapped window trim
Smoked JDM window visors
OEM decklid spoiler
STI-R clear lens
5500k Dual Evil ironman LEDs
5500k Osram CBIs
5500k TRS XB LED projector foglights
5000k LEDs for license plates
5000k interior LEDs
Foglight wiring trick, now I can turn them on and off independently without the headlights on
There's probably a few other things I can't remember right now.
FUTURE MODS:
Custom steering wheel with
Added top thumb grips
Added bottom thumb grips
Reshaped sides with perforated leather
Flat bottom
Thickened 1/8 inch with leather top and bottom. It'll be about 3 more weeks for it to be done.
Currently working on getting the opening in the CS diffuser enlarged to fit quad exhaust tips to accommodate the new diffuser better as the current ones are way too small.
Stillen Gen 3
Motordyne M370
Long tube headers
Ported and polished OEM lower manifold
Tune(Uprev or EcuTek)
Illuminated Door Sills
Front lip and side splitters once I get my front bumper painted after it got hit.
Gloss black vinyl wrapped roof.
I got my Carbon Signal CF diffuser yesterday and installed it last night.
I love how it looks, but one thing for sure, these exhaust tips gotta go now... I'll be shopping around for some round tips to complete the look.
I can't stop stairing at it.
Custom midnight sequential taillights with my own specific custom sequences + show mode
IPL wheels
Autokits X CF Diffuser - Replaced by Carbon Signal CF diffuser with side color matched spats
And couple pictures after exhaust install and a picture after installing the OEM rear spoiler...
Any comments or opinions or questions are welcome... I know it's a newbie build thread but I guess we all start somewhere...
Invidia Q300 catback exhaust
And some WOT video driven by my older brother.
A video of the not so NEW(anymore) MXP exhaust with upgraded MXP Y pipe. (I've had it for a year now)
Video of the sequential taillights
Video of the show mode

AAAAND JUST SOME MORE UPDATES Got her lowered on Eibach springs and will be getting Koni Yellow shocks in the future.
It was just installed saturday so It'll take some time for them to settle completely, the back seems about right or it'll get a bit lower but the front should definitely settle more in due time...

Very nice. Sounds quite good. No pop or rasp as far as I can tell, just a deep rumble... which isn't what I expected without a resonated pair of cats. Hmm.
2nd gear wind up under load was particularly tasty.
Feel free to back-fill your intake and cat mods into this read. Could be good reading.

Congrats on the Invidia exhaust. I'm thinking of running the same exhaust, but paired up with some Fast Intentions high flow cats. I need more growl from it, lol. It sounds too quiet for me without the HFC. Looking good though.

Thanks ! one thing you may not be aware of is that I have the Berk HFCs aswell so that's what it sounds like, I dont know about RHFCs but my guess is it will be quiter than Berk Non resonated HFCs. Keep in mind I didn't rev it up anymore than just 3k rpm

Very nice looking exhaust and sound! I have the exact same color and I am thinking about getting the rear spoiler also. If you dont mind me asking, how much was it and was the install very involved? I have a good amount of tools and do my own maintenance so I am just wondering if I can do it myself. Thanks.

Nice that you put this build thread together Mike, don't have time to check that video right now but sounds like Rochester's a fan, so it must sound pretty good
You've done so much in a short time and your build list is quite impressive, keep up the good work and everything you've done so far looks good together and are nice pieces toward your grand plan.

I'm assuming you installed a softer clutch pedal spring, yes?
The very first thing any G/Z 6MT Owner should do.

Thank you sir.. the spoiler was factory color painted for 280 plus shipping from www.infinitipartsusa.com and honestly if you have a good amount of tools and do your own maintenance you should be perfectly fine... not like you need a whole bunch of tools to get it done anyway... honestly that is the best price I have come across for the OEM spoiler with the camera cut out especially since it comes painted which would probably another $100 to get one painted. It comes with all the hardware and templates. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask or shoot a PM
