hey guys, just decided to make a little showoff thread to give you an idea on what i have on the car and whatnot. a little info on my car, i bought it brand new May 4th 2006 for about 21k and about 23k after taxes and had it shipped to Mass from Chicago because the only red one they found with all the options i wanted was located there, i paid it off in January of 2011, i had planned on boosting years ago but ended up moving out of the parents and buying a street bike, however after years of should i and i shouldn't july 2013 i finally turbo'd the spec, it is not daily driven its all summer so it has never seen salt/snow. it has 35,000 miles and is Fully Bolted, Cammed, Boosted and UpRev tuned, My goal is 320whp. i do plan on a few other things small things but we will see im always changing or buying something new, also i am a car detailer on the side so its always clean inside and out (i have serious ocd) i know its not a race car so i do a little bit of everything while trying to make it a bit faster. any questions on the car feel free to ask!! i have hundreds of pics of this thing this is just a few. here is a list of some of the mods followed by a few pics. thanks for looking!

thanks man!! that hose is stock, just still looks new probably because of the low milage.

clean as hell sir, imma sucker for a red spec, nice choice of scooter also
thanks! yea when i bought it i wanted only wanted red, they had to get it shipped from chicago cuz i wanted the red with sunroof and brembo's, so basically i bought the car never even saw it in person. but so happy haha

yeh, i was thinking with a red film they would look amazing. plus i have 02-03 tails on an 04-06 bumper and i really hate that 1/4 inch of gap.
yea i was actually thinking i might do that myself thats why i havent had them up for sale honestly. and i had them in they are actually i little smaller on the bottom then stock 04-06's i measured them up to my stocks because when i had them in i noticed the gap was bigger, they are shorter then stock so your gap will most likely remain.

Nice spec v btw eric, i like how clean it is.!!
thank you! getting all the clean compliments now makes it worth what i do haha.

No I'm all set with a side exit I like the nismo exhaust plus I don't want that loud shit I get pulled over enough for stupid shit like tint and no front plate etc.. what i like about the nismo is its nice and quiet when you need it to be but full throttle its a monster. especially now with this plenum.

On a very unrelated note, do you notice at all any difference using the nology wiring kit? I've been very comprehensive about those things lol. Last round of photos was a beauty, nice and clean red = drool

haha yea i got them new bit cheap so i figured i would give them a shot. I have heard that alot of QR's only like the stock plugs/wires but i tired them anyway. i like how they add a little bit of red to the engine bay but as far as power they are rated at about 7hp on 175hp engines but i didn't notice any real gains so if they added a few hp its not enough to really feel.

yea it probably wont add more then a few horses but i'm pretty much fully bolted so i'm picking up the things i have left. gonna throw it in tomorrow, i'm sure i'll get a little something even if it's not noticeable. plenum feels great too!! and every little bit helps.

just another small part i just got, but havent updated in a while. Also will be mailing out my ECU for an Uprev tune within the next 2 months as soon as summer gets closer so i can drive it again. Have yet to decide it i want to go turbo or not. sold my streetbike so i have way more then enough from that to pay for the treadstone kit with the bb turbo upgrade, we shall see.

2j 15mm ALK's

random, just thought i would post a picture from back on the day i bought it, and some other way back bone stock, though its funny not even knowing about the precat issue back then i had the nismo header put on with the nismo exhaust and intake only 6 months after i bought it.
