Hey so I’m new to the forums here just wanted to get some input from the community on what I should do with my car. I own a 2010 G37s convertible and I have done some cosmetic mods but now I am looking towards performance mods. I just ordered some stance coil overs and now I want to focus on my exhaust. I have stillen gen 3 intakes and I was stupid enough to fully straight pipe the car. So now I’m not sure what I should do. I am getting a tune but I don’t want to tune the car with just Long tune intakes and a straight pipe. My plan was to get stillen HFC and keep the rest of the straight pipe and then tune. Any thoughts?

 

Stance offers convertible-specific coil-overs? The rear lower mount is unique to the 'vert.

 

Maybe headers?

 

Should of done my research just cancelled the order didn’t even know the rear was different than the coupe. Thanks for the heads up.

 

I would do headers but my main problem right now is rasp I don’t really care for how loud the car is. I know headers would make the car super loud but would it help with the rasp?

 

No, it won't help with the rasp. It reads like you need a better catback than whatever this straight-pipe exhaust is you're referring to. What is that anyway? Do you have something custom, like a Y-Pipe collecting into a single exhaust?

FWIW, the OEM exhaust manifolds on your Vert are already shorty headers. Aftermarket headers are marginal upgrades, unless you go long-tube.

 

As of right now I literally have a hollow pipe from the cats to the end of the car. Sounds horrendous. Tomorrow I will be putting on the Tanabe axle back exhaust.

 

The rear lower control arm that we share is from the EX35 model.
as far as appearance mods are concerned....KISS, has always been my model. Too much can be too much. your car is already a head banger and will get looks anyway.

Sharp....

 

I am currently sound deadening my car. I think it may be the best mod out there (assuming p2w ratio isn’t a big concern for you). Our cars are tin cans.
