I noticed it today at the body shop…..


Anyone else with a non Nismo do the rear conversion and experience this????

I noticed an 09-14 Nismo exhaust seems to stick out farther on the conversions.
I've been thinking about this for a week now. The Nismo rear extends a couple inches so.....cat back exhaust time

only problem is I wanted to wait to do my next exhaust overhaul for when I do boost (hoping for winter of '17 with cash in hand) I plan on going FI CBE with either the FI or BP turbo kits

for the time being I am going to look into modifying something existing to make what I got work……I will share my findings

no there has been a bunch of issues with my hood, in the end just putting the OEM one back on so they can finish painting it over the next couple of days.

I am dying to see this thing this is 3 weeks now no Z!

I think I am going to pop by on my way home to try and see how it is progressing
