they don't make problems of tuning products. i mean the boss of the dealership owns a TT 350Z and pretty much every Z car.

they also installed a akrapovic exhaust on the GT-R

they are good people

and sure I could do it myself but mess it up and I am ******.

josh are there any stillen dealers here in belgium?

You wont mess it up - dont you have a car friend or anything? Someone who can be a 2nd set of eyes to watch over you? Thats the best way to learn...

Well starting today I go to this place where they strip down cars and fix some.

I guess it will be a good learning place. I mean today I fixed a totally broken transmission

Biggest problem is my father he helped me with paying for the car and he is pretty "OMG YOU SUCK AT EVERYTHING LEAVE IT TO THE PROS"

I doubt that he would even let me change a lightbulb on the car -_-

the sad thing is.

he LOVES cars.

I mean why else would he buy a GT-R

he used to mess about with cars in his younger days.

but its like he is scared of me doing ANYTHING on my car.

he would be scared shitless if I dared touching the intake

I'm not very good at stuff like that, either. But when I installed my Injen CAI on my Acura, when I got to something that the DIY didn't show, I just took a photo and posted it and within an hour, I had someone advise me. I did it on a weekend starting on a Saturday and it sat overnight till Sunday getting it done but it got done. And done right.

You should take a look at the do-it-yourself stuff and see if it looks too complicated.

geez i think everybody on here has learned by now to never trust anyone whos name is in orange. yeah just grab up the stillen or injen intake, download the .pdf service manual for the car, do some reading, maybe take a consumer auto class, or hey just get your dad to do it. My father hates cars and hates me buying things for my cars but guess who he gets to fix his?
