I was so excited about my up coming turbo upgrade, I forgot about the upgrades I have already made on my car!
My first mod was this one.... lol, the fool that had my car prior to me had no idea what sport car should feel and be capable of doing. ![]() ![]() My next mod was tinting my windows. I forgot exactly what I had put on but iirc, SolarGuard with metal and ceramic to help block the sun. 30% in back and 13% in front I think. He guarantee his work. If it peels or discolor, he replaces it free. I'll have to look for the receipt later to find how much I paid for it. No pictures of before or after, sorry. My first "real" upgrade was the sound system. This was a "cheap" budget sound system compared to the other ones my brothers and I have done. The sound system consist of: -Kenwood HU +$200 online sale where I picked it up at the local Fry's since they price match and had some in stock. -Focal 6.5 I forgot which one but they are entry level or something. -Alpine type R shallow -custom box -SoundStream amps (good bang for buck, plus I wanted small amps) In this pic, I have laid out the foil and about to glass the box. ![]() ![]() It's wired a little differently now but you got the idea. ![]() ![]() ![]() I wanted a clean look and the tweeters did not fit into the dash area so I came up with this. It works like a charm. ![]() ![]() I still get great air flow out of the vent. next came the Famuto! This thing rocks! I just wish the opening was bigger so that it would drain faster but ohh well. One flick and the oil drains. No more ratcheting. ![]() ![]() I then found out about product made by 3M. It's a clear spray on film to help protect the paint. I wanted to try it out so I bought me 3 cans and went to work. I washed my car 2x, then waxed her 2x then parked her in the garage. The next day, I taped. OMG did the prep take long! ![]() This is a picture to show how glossy it look after it dries. ![]() The product works but It's hard to do it right. You want to do it in the garage or somewhere there is no wind! It is very difficult to spray a even coat of the stuff. Overall, the stuff works but it's not clear bra. It was killer hard to remove it a year later. My latest upgrade was my FI CBE non resonated. It took a while for it to come but man was the thing shiny! It was a easy install. IT sound 100x better than the stock Nismo. I think it's a little to loud imo. Maybe I should of went 12" resonated. Hopefully the snail will quiet it down some. $1300 YzGyz Last edited by YzGyz; 01-20-2015 at 12:48 PM. |
