Size, weight, cast vs. forged, style, finish, BBK support, offset, spacers, lugnuts, tires, etc. Invariably leading to stance and fitment, leading to suspension work. If this is the new member's first consideration on aftermarket wheels, then yes, head explosion, LOL.

But first things first... remove that pin-striping. Ugh.

 

Yeah - just never really committed to looking for one yet. I think if I ever do plan on keeping the car long term and having the front resprayed (because right now it's rock chips galore), then I'll bite the bullet. But for now, not really a priority for me.

 

Here's a photo from yesterday. She sure does sit and look pretty.

 

Haha, the pinstriping doesn't bother me, I didn't even really notice it. But yeah, this would be my first aftermarket wheel purchase. My first mod once I get the money might be a catalytic converter, though that could be a head exploder too haha.

 

Diggin the wheel and color combo. Is that slate?

 

Yup, blue slate.

 

Nismo wheels and a shiny a$$ = perfection.

 

You have two. (pop!)

Welcome to the forum, Descendent. You're going to enjoy owning this car.

 

Out of curiosity, why would a cat be your 1st mod? Does it need to be replaced or is that a bang-for-the-buck mod I missed?

 

Well I don't know, it wouldn't have to be, but that and the muffler are the most restrictive in terms of air flow. A lot of people get cat back exhaust systems thinking about the sound and forget about the stock catalytic converter.

I am not completely sold on the effectiveness of aftermarket intake systems either.

Probably a reflash would do the most to be honest.

 

There really aren't any mods for this car which give you a lot of power by themselves.

Really the best bang for buck mod is suspension and wheels. Start off with some upgraded sways, better tires and wheels.

Intake systems don't really do much of anything, besides add some noise.

Getting a reflash/tune on a stock car won't do much of anything.

 

Love those nismos!


Great stance on yours and eurtsx

 

Yep, those square Nismos are a huge WIN! And love the color combos on both your Gs, Kudos guys!

 

One of my favorite sedans on this forum. Looking good, D.

 

looks NICE! Did you refinish your wheels? If not where'd you locate a dark set of Nismo wheels? All I've seen available anywhere is the light silver. Thx
