That last a couple weeks until I see or hear something I want.

I'd have to say the Air intake, test pipes, exhaust and tune turned my Nismo from cool and fast to "holy **** batman that's fast"

I find if I spend too much time dreaming about different mods I want to do, I spend less time enjoying and appreciating what I actually have. How far does one go to build a car they're happy with? Does one mod to the point it's a full blown 370Z RC that is streetable? If so, why stop there - why not get a faster car, a GTR? Is that fast enough? Replace the turbos, tweak the suspension, etc. Is that not enough? Get a faster car. Is that not enough? Where does it end?

So I'm inclined to enjoy driving the car, knowing it has limits of performance it will not go beyond, and learn to perform to the best of my ability within those limits. As a car guy I certainly appreciate craftsmanship and can appreciate a well sorted and efficiently modified car, but I'm not chasing the mod fairy. I'm just going to enjoy driving the car.

For now anyway...
